Mantronix — The Album


Kurtis "Mantronik" El Khaleel and Touré "MC Tee" Embden unite to form Mantronix, releasing without too much fantasy "The Album", supported by dance singles that make their way into the Billboard charts. The New Dance City duo combines proto-techno and electronica, while MC Tee shoots some easily ignored random lines in the background between rapping, talking and singing: Mantronik creates fresh music for the time, hard, grumpy and lively, complex rhythms made with limited tools, extracting innovative robotic music from decent samples. It's the pinnacle of electro music together with the debut of Newcleus. 7/10.
