The genre track of Electro hip hop 1983. Still played in 85,86 for breaking competitions lol. The lights went off then strobes came on and Al Naafish started. Everyone crowded around and had duels lol. God Bless Sergio Tacchini,Fila and Kappa circa 1985. -

Did Hashim do the Scratchin in this song? If not who did? Even more important what is the Original source of the Scratch sound being cut up? -
i how at the end of 1984 a buddy had a 30 second snippet on tape of this song.the rest had been overdubbed.we really wanted to know the name of the song to have it complete.only when i bought the streetsounds crucial with the flat knob in 1985 the mystery was solved -

Hanging out at Cutting Records in New York in 1987 Aldo showed me the keyboard that Hashim used to make this masterpiece and also the many Imperial Brothers killers like Dub to Scratch which is a killer record and one of y all time faves.. great memories -
Maybe number one breakdance record. The tuff attitude in this record made it a favorit for a lot of breakdancers.
-
A clever interpolation of one of the synth lines from Duran Duran's "New Religion", released just one year before. -
Record was a breakthrough in the days, was a favorite for breakdancing in Washington Square Park New York, You would most definitely find me any day in the week battling! What great memories! -
Love the comments, label.aside. im still wondering what was the inspiration behind the track. Why would you make this vocal? What does it mean ?
