The Starting Five

Back in Delaware in the 80′s there was all kinds of spots to get down every night of the week. There was two spots in particular: Pulsations–which was coincidentally a couple of miles from where I am now–and TP’s (Teen Palace) where these tracks had everybody up real propa like. Pop set my curfew at 1:30 am and I had to bust my ass just to make that happen because Pop was a beast! I remember one time when I tried to sneak through the den window…

Pop was waiting for me!

You know what came next.

Love you Pop!

Here’s some of the bangers we either wopped, smurfed, fila’ed, or electric boogaloo’ed too. This is how we did it youngins. You missed some good parties. Most is electro with some classics sprinkled in. Most of these cats did not get properly compensated for these tracks: “Industry rule # 4080 record companies are shadeeeeeee!”

Johnny the Fox!

Bass Machine. Killed many a speaker over this track. Mantronix and T-La Rock was a perfect combination…

Herbie Hancock’s Megamix. I first heard E.C. LaRock bang this on 105.3…WDAS FM on Saturday nights. R.I.P brotha. Thanks for the many tapes.

Just a little Triple Threat Beat Box…
