Old School Breakdance Odyssey Volume One (1979-1987)


So ya want more 80's hip hop eh ? Ask and you shall receive! Today we've got a dope selection of old school coming your way. Some of these tracks register over the top in the obscure category, others are well known. If you're a fiend for those old school drums and flows, peep this. The track by Sorcery is so dope I have almost broken my speakers, same for 'Breakdancers Call'.

  5. 1970-1987? Maybe I'm making a mistake, but Discogs says Armand Van Helden Breakdancers Call is from 2000, and Rock the house/Ugly be quiet & Streetsounds seem to be from 1988... Maybe I am mistaken..

    Very nice compilation anyway! Its what I wanted when I answered 80's to the poll, thanks!

  7. @ vincent: a lot of times when you read megatron it's really maggotron ... but this isn't maggotron either.
    btw that house track (detroit grand pubahs) is also from the 2000s.

    @ schenectadyfan: track #13 is an early spyder-d alias: b+ ... doesn't appear in the tracklist.

    PEACE.

    and that "megatron" joint is just another armand van helden tune.
