Compilation label set up by Morgan Khan, a Hong Kong-born Indian who grew up in London. He had worked in the UK record industry since the mid 1970's. Possibly some of the most important music produced that has helped shape the future of electronic dance music. The release of Street Sounds Electro 1 in 1983 paved the way for the Hip hop culture to be heard. The use of such sounds as the Roland TR-808 rhythm machine, Roland Jupiter-8 synthesizer, Master of Ceremonies and the introduction of the Phonograph as an "instrument" (Scratching) were all prominent features. The Electro series was popular amongst the Break dance scene with the general agreement that Electro 1-6 and the Crucial Electro series being the most recognized. Samples from the original works of such artists as Jerry Calliste Jr., Hashim's Al-Naafiysh (The Soul) are constantly appearing in today's music.
