evenin' all. eric, nice discussion on electro, hip hop and chronology. thanks for clearing up some debates. now, to start another: who can offer me a "canonical" electro album to take a listen to so i can nail down for myself what is electro and what is instead early hip hop ish? suggestions along the lines of "first electro album proper", "best compilation of tip top electro singles" or "peak album of electro in the day" (not revivalist) welcomed. reasoned debate allowed, name calling and attitude not alllowed. :) bonus round: who in the current IDM scene shows the most electro spirit, or influence, or what have you, so i can follow up my archaeology with some modern study. r o b np: digital underground "sex packets" > > eric > > On Wed, 30 Jun 1999, Joanisse, Robert wrote: > > >electro was the precursor of hip-hop, not a variant. dr dre made surgery > >before he made straight outta compton. >
