I recorded digitally my entire StreetSounds Electro compilation series. I recorded my StreetSounds vinyls into Protools, with as much digital restorations as possible and widened stereo-field.  The genre Electro since the early 80′s was electric funk and hip-hop music, mainly for break-dancing, bee-bopping, and body-popping. In my opinion, the word & genre of “electro" today has been hijacked in the form of 4/4 dance music and not anywhere near its true roots.

The label Streetsounds was part of the UK Streetwave stable of labels created by Morgan Khan in 1981, specializing in releasing Electro and Hi-NRG releases. StreetSounds were series of compilation albums created from some of the hottest 12″ imports of the day. This series would run for over 6 years and contain over 50 albums. The most coveted of the Streetsounds releases were the Electro series. These albums introduced the UK to the developing hip-hop scene from America – a stroke of genius that brought electro and early hip hop from the underground to the UK high street which helped in the creation of the UK’s hip hop scene. The Electro series ran for a total of 27 albums (and one box set) from 1982 to 1988. The albums were initially labeled StreetSounds Electro, later changing to StreetSounds Hip Hop after release 12 in 1986.  All of the albums were competently mixed by the best remixers of the day – predominately from the UK. Headed by “Herbie The Mastermind” (aka Herbie Laidley) the team also featured Kiss FM radio DJ’s Dave VJ and Max LX who were also members of UK electro outfit Hard Rock Soul Movement, responsible for the massive “Double Def Fresh” release.
