    Yo Oli, morgen bin ich um die ecke bei dir. Melde mich dann abends mal.

    King Of Beat is dope as hell. What totaly freacked me out was that I knew "The Power" by Snap before I heard "King of Beats". So I knew the drumbreak but I never knew thad the cowbelish hihat sound that is triggered in 16th is the fucking cowbell from "Mardi Gras" He is a genius.
    And yes, "come into my life" is also one of my most favourites song of 80s R'n'B.

    "Come Into My Life", "All N All", "Lifetime Love"... those were all Mantronik productions, weren't they? Man, I loved all that schitt. Especially "Come Into My Life". Joyce was one of those singers that really didn't have much of a voice, but she complimented those tracks well.

    I love this.
    I don't have my twelve inch at hand but I remember Hungry For Your Love actually being a Kurt Mantronik WRITTEN sond, but surprisingly neither produced nor mixed by him.
    Am I wrong?
