For the Old School heads... Uncle Jamm's Army & Dr. Dre Old School Mixx re-cap

[OGCYCO]

Uncle Jamm's Army.....

Los Angeles was a key capital on the tiny corner of the early hip-hop map known as electro, and Uncle Jamm's Army were one of the primary reasons for that. An extended crew of producers, DJs, and vocalists including Ice-T, Egyptian Lover, DJ Slip, the Unknown DJ, and Chris "The Glove" Taylor, Uncle Jamm's Army released a string of popular, influential electro cuts during 1984-1986, including the midtempo electro joint "What's Your Sign," in 1985 with the flip B-Side "Dial-a-Freak," and "Yes, Yes, Yes," (typical L.A. electro party jam in 1984) all for the Freak Beat label. Notable for their all-around musicality; driving, effective rhythms; and uncompromising attitude, Uncle Jamm's Army remain one of the most important pieces in the old-school electro puzzle and have influenced scores of new-school electro producers, from Autechre to I-F. - Edited by CPTCYCO for Dubcc.com 2004.
