Baby doll, you know who I am? I rock two turntables with Uncle Jam. I'm the Egyptian Lover, baby, I'm #1; I'm a mixin', scratchin', record-lovin' son of a gun.

A-T-4 154 Egypt Is The Place
As well as Chris "The Glove" Taylor the other DJ at Radio Club was Egyptian Lover. Both were members of The Radio Crew who provided the soundtrack to the documentary Breakin' & Enterin' that inspired the movie Breakin'
Egyptian Lover wasn't involved with Breakin' or David Storrs ElectroBeat Records. In 1983 he joins legendary LA DJ group Uncle Jamm's Army and begins his own label Freak Beat (later becoming Egyptian Empire Records). In 1984 Egyptian Lover takes Kraftwerk's Tour De France and runs with it, self-releasing the electro classic, one of my favourites, Egypt, Egypt. This is followed by the album On The Nile
In the UK Egypt, Egypt turns up on Street Sounds Electro 5. Egyptian Lover and tracks from On The Nile appear on Electro 6 (My House (On The Nile)) and Electro 7 (Girls)

Uncle Jamm's Army - Dial- A-Freak (10 Minutes Remix) in 1984 Uncle Jamm's Army put out a very different remix of the previous years Dial-A-Freak and another single Yes, Yes, Yes

'90s MV of the day
youtube
Army Of Me by Björk
Directed by Michel Gondry.
"When Michel [Gondry] gets his strokes of genius and, in the video for "Army of Me", wants a dentist that's a gorilla to find a diamond in my mouth, some people call it nonsense. But it's probably the most realistic way of expressing what situation I'm in – all these people trying to take things away from me, and the gorilla finding a diamond that I don't know I have and then stealing it. "Army of Me" is so much about me actually learning that I have to defend myself. I have to stand up and fight the fucking gorilla. Once I've got the diamond and I run away with it, it becomes massive 'cos it's mine. But if the gorilla had kept it, it would have gone really tiny. That's surrealism for me." — Björk, speaking about the gorilla dentist scene
The song was featured on the soundtrack for Tank Girl, but Björk declined to use footage from the film in her music video.

This high-powered music is truly unique, As The Glove cuts the rhythm to the hip-hop beat. Hе moves like a madman as he spins his disc; Hе's the number one scratcher on the DJ list, he's Reckless.

A-T-4 152 David Storrs & Chris "The Glove" Taylor featuring Ice-T
I've learned more about David Storrs. After graduating from UCLA Storrs (as David Stores) shows up as a dancer in Toni Basil's Word Of Mouth video, this is the video that kickstarts her pop career and you can see the video here. Basil had been a dancer and choreographer in Hollywood since the 1960s she was also a founding member of the street dance group The Lockers
Most of the tracks in this post will be from the films Breakin' and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo (Breakdance in Europe). Shabba-Doo who plays Ozone in these films was also a member of The Lockers. Toni Basil's Word Of Mouth video leads to two specials being made for the BBC, Toni Basil Tape 1 and Toni Basil Tape 2, Shabba-Doo is in both of these specials
In early 1980s in the MacArthur Park area of LA was a place punk rock bands rehearsed but on Fridays between 11pm and 5am it became a club called Radio. This was a fashionable hotspot that attracted celebrities like Madonna, Prince, Michael Jackson, Chaka Khan, and Toni Basil. Being on the scene David Storrs visited Radio Club and it was here where he met DJ Pebo who worked for JDC Records. DJ Pebo introduced Storrs to the Radio Crew. Radio Crew was an impromptu name for the DJ's and MC's who performed at Radio Club. The name came about in 1983 when director Topper Carew produced a documentary about the Radio Club called Breakin' 'n' Enterin'. The Radio Crew were Egyptian Lover, Chris "The Glove" Taylor, Ice T, and Radio Club owner Super AJ (Alex Jordanov). A rare as hens teeth five track Radio Crew EP was pressed up for the Breakin' And Enterin' documentary crew
One of the featured b boys in Breakin' And Enterin' is (the other guy credited with teaching Michael Jackson the backslide) Boogaloo Shrimp. He was a well respected b boy at Radio Club and would be cast as Turbo in the films Breakin' and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
David Storrs and DJ Pebo formed a record label called ElectroBeat and promptly signed The Glove, Ice T, and another Radio Club MC 14-year-old Kid Frost. Rough Cut by Kid Frost would be first release for ElectroBeat
David Storrs seems to be a bit of a polymath. As well as dancing with Toni Basil he had a BSc in Electrical Engineering and was in-house composer, producer, and musician at Valley of the Sun Publishing (see Sunday's post). Storrs released New Age music for Valley Of The Sun as a solo artist and as part of the group Upper Astral. Kid Frost gave Storrs the name "The Alien Wizard" for all the creative and unique tracks that he laid. In 1985 Kid Frost and David Storrs would release Terminator, a track that was popular in the UK thanks to its inclusion on Street Sounds Electro 9, this being my era I can still recite all the words to this track
The Glove was a scratch DJ but on Kid Frost's Rough Cut they use World Class Wreckin Crew DJ and future member of NWA, Yella. ElectroBeat's second released was Ice-T's double A-side Killers/Body Rock. Ice-T's name for David Storrs was "Davey PHD". It wasn't until ElectroBeat's third release that David Storrs would collaborate with The Glove, the result is the remarkable Itchiban [not Ichiban] Scratch
The studio engineer Victor Flores also worked on Itchiban Scratch, Flores had worked with The Glove earlier producing megamixes like the ones I shared here
I've also shared Itchiban Scratch but as this is David Storrs and Chris "The Glove" Taylor's first release together here's an extract from the long b-side
youtube
Chris “The Glove” Taylor & Dave Storrs with Karlos Z and Victor Flores - Itchiban's Bonus Beats (extract) everybody loves a 303
DJ Pebo and David Storrs timing couldn't have been better. After watching Breakin' 'n' Enterin' a representative of Cannon Films turned up at Radio Club with an offer to film a low-budget movie there. Carmelo Alvarez who had been given the building accepted. Working in David Storrs' garage studio The Glove and Storrs produced an instrumental called Reckless which they submitted to be used in the film. Ice T and the Glove were given parts in the movie, essentially playing themselves. Ice T added a vocal to Reckless (and apparently this inspires Eminem to take up rapping). The film was Breakin' and it was the surprise hit of the summer. Storrs, The Glove, and Ice T also contribute a second track to the film, Tibetan Jam which is used in the famous first battle scene
youtube
Here's the instrumental (don't worry I'll get to Reckless)
youtube
Chris "The Glove" Taylor & David Storrs feat. Ice T - Tibetan Jam
You may have noticed that the graffiti behind Ice T and The Glove in the above film clip reads Radio♥︎Tron. The writer Craze originally sprayed up Radio Club but Super AJ protested. The word "Club" got buffed and replaced with "Tron" (probably because of the movie Tron). The name stuck and between 1983 until it closed in 1986 Radio Club became the legendary RadioTron, a cultural mecca for West Coast breakers and grafitti artists
Tibetan Jam isn't included on the Breakin' soundtrack album but it does appear as the b-side of the single version of Reckless released by major label Polydor
youtube
Chris "The Glove" Taylor & David Storrs feat. Ice T - Reckless
Reckless is a well respected track and it gave the soundtrack to Breakin' some authenticity. The Breakin' OST is at all bad
Chaka Khan contributed her and Rufus's 1983 hit Aint Nobody to the Breakin' OST. When it came to the video for her next single I Feel For You in the Autumn of 1984 a set was built to look like RadioTron. The Glove was cast again as the DJ. Breakin' stars Shabba-Doo and Boogaloo Shrimp were featured dancers along side other RadioTron regulars Bruno "Pop N Taco" Falcon and Ana "Lollipop" Sánchez - both of whom appear in Breakin'
youtube
Chris "The Glove" Taylor & David Storrs feat. Ice T - Reckless (Instrumental)
Capitalising on the box office success of Breakin' and the time sensitive popularity of breakin' (which would fall out of fashion in the US but as with turntablism and graffiti would be kept growing in Europe then make its way back to the US in the late 1990s) Cannon Pictures quickly put out Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo by the end of 1984. This might seem an incredible feat if you don't know Cannon Pictures
Chris "The Glove" Taylor and Ice T reprise their roles in the second film. Although Chris "The Glove" Taylor, David Storrs, and Ice T don't appear on the Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo soundtrack album their tracks are used in the film in key scenes. The first is a new version of Reckless with different words known as "Reckless Rivalry Combat" or simply "Combat"
youtube

youtube
Chris "The Glove" Taylor & David Storrs feat. Ice T - Party People (Go Off) then there's this "Party People (Go Off)" from the RadioTron club scene
David Storrs also released the single "Dancing On The Planet" in 1984 but it's a bit meh. He would continue with ElectroBeat for another year and then move into soundtracks (including one opposite Chaz Jankel). Whilst doing this Storrs would continue to make New Age music. His contribution to West Coast electro and hip hop is sadly forgotten
Chris "The Glove" Taylor now goes by the name Glove. He would become a producer and engineer for Death Row and Aftermath Records. His own group Po' Broke & Lonely were signed to Eazy-E's Ruthless Records. He's rightly considered a West Coast hip hop pioneer

Humanity has reached the stars. Broken free of the confines of the Solar System, discovered other habitable worlds, and sent colony ships out to settle them.
But on one watery world, they discover we are not alone. The shuttles land, people step out onto a new landmass for the first time, only to behold ancient yet highly advanced ruins of a long-gone civilization. Ruins, and something else...
Ten years later, people have flocked to this world, dubbed Planet Sliplane. Pilots, mechanics, and engineers; using the technology discovered in the ruins to pioneer a whole new type of high-tech hovercraft, that can transform and shift as needed to adapt to any terrain. And what are they used for?
To race, of course.
Sliplane's many islands are covered in and connected by a vast network of radical racetracks, packed full of sick loop-de-loops and death-defying jumps, along with plenty of automated hazards. Here, racing meets exploration, as pilots of insane skill and radical courage are encouraged to test their talents by forging into the unknown, charting a course through the archipelago, and plumbing the ruins for valuable secrets. Can these ladies make a splash into this new frontier?
Of course, the best adrenaline rushes only come from the most intense danger...
S L I P L A N E
Coming Soon* to every console**
#not a reblog#sliplane#*probably somewhere between 'not for a long while' and 'never'#**probably just pc at most#RADICAL and not in the terf way#late 90s early 00s racing games#with late 90s early 00s sci-fi aesthetic#but with vehicular combat#and hot queer women as the playable characters#and a hopefully actually good plot#OH and a sick symphonic techno hip-hop soundtrack#this is my vision

This is why I say African music is SUPREME. Although we were stripped from our countries on the continent of Africa, stripped from our cultures, stripped from our religious traditions, and stripped from our families, we created an abundance out of nothing but our souls. The chart below stops in 1992. Think of all we have created from 1992 - present.
#gospel#choirs#hip hop#rhythm and blues#blues#urban blues#go go#neo soul#new jazz swing#cool jazz#techno#rock and roll#jazz fusion#house music#bebop#hard bop#rap#folk sprituals
