I once heard you didn't like Jamiroquai & would often slag him off for wearing a 'technicolour dreamcoat' when he was on your label??

Any truth in this?

As with the majority of rumours this is absolute bulls**t, I loved Jay to bits

Welcome aboard mate.

Thanks Waard, it's a pleasure to be aboard That's an awesome signature image btw, did you create it?

Welcome Morgan, hope you enjoy it here

Hi Morgan,
I was a b-boy here in the UK from 83-87, and had every streetsounds electro release (on cassette !) they were a massive part of my life.
1-6 were absolute classics, and I still love the selection of tracks on those
I swapped over from the hiphop to house in 87, and went onto the rave scene, and tbh I never liked any hiphop after about 1990 (all went a bit too gansta' for my liking), but the streetsounds albums were so much more than hiphop with lots of electro and other styles too, it really opened my ears to a lot of new music.
wikki wikki wikki wikki wikki !

Welcome aboard

Thanks for the warm welcome Wigs and Swipezster

Welcome to IAAO

I was also a B-boy in the 80's and like Nik, I have all the Electro albums on Vinyl, Tape and CD. One of my favourite series of all time.

Hi Morgan,

Your original Electro compilations were the sound track to my youth.
The NU Skool one are good too. I got the first 3 so far.

I've always wanted to make compilations, i have some wicked selections, maybe suggest some one day?
