│ Los Angeles-based producer Greg Broussard was the man behind │
│ pioneering hip-hop/electro fusion artist the Egyptian Lover. │
│ Comparable in influence to Soul Sonic Force's "Planet Rock", │
│ Man Parrish's "Hip-Hop Be Bop (Don't Stop)" and Pretty Tony's │
│ "Jam theBox", Egyptian Lover singles such as "Egypt, Egypt", │
│ "My Beat Goes Boom", "Dance" and "What is a DJ If He Can't │
│ Scratch?" combined the abstract electronics of Kraftwerk and │
│ the Art of Noise with the emerging beat-heavy sound of electro │
│ and the vocal approach of rap. │
│ │
│ Similar in style and feel to those other artists, Egyptian │
│ Lover and related West Coast electro groups and producers such │
│ as World Class Wrecking Cru, Chris "The Glove" Taylor and the │
│ Unknown DJ took beatbox manipulation to new levels, fusing │
│ signature loops with ample syncopation, darker, modal melodies │
│ and impressive turntable tricks. While Egyptian Lover records │
│ didn't start appearing until several years after the New York │
│ and Miami electro scenes were already in full swing, by the │
│ mid-'80s Egyptian Lover cuts like Egypt, Egypt" were standards │
│ among club DJs, particularly in the breakdance scene. │
│ │
│ Early cuts such as "Computer Love" and "Dance" were among │
│ Egyptian Lover's most experimental, with the material appearing │
│ through the latter half of the '80s increasingly flirting with │
│ full-blown rap by adding more vocals and melodic hooks. While │
│ more of his material dates from the latter phase, it's his │
│ earlier releases that remain his most accomplished, and they're │
│ routinely namechecked by a new generation of producers such as │
│ Autechre and I-F inspired by electro's first wave. │
│ │
│ Also a member of Uncle Jamm's Army and the force behind a half │
│ dozen labels including Freak Beat and Egyptian Empire, │
│ Broussard also released the old-scool classic "Computer Power" │
│ under the name Jamie Jupitor. After a decade Egyptian Lover hit │
│ the studio again and produced some new tracks in the same funky │
│ electro style. -- http://www.globaldarkness.com │
