This is part three in Salacious Sound's The History of Electro. To recap what we've covered so far head on over to Part I: The Death of Disco and the Rise of Kraftwerk and Part II: Electro Gave DJs Their First Grammy! Following Kraftwerk's rocketing rise to fame in 1981, little uncertainty about the influence of electronic music in the domain of global pop culture remained. But the synth-driven acoustics of Computer World only tell half of the story of electro's early development. After [...]
Welcome back to Turning the Screw, Rocks Off's weekly rap post. It probably won't rhyme, at least most of the time. E-mail tips to introducingliston@gmail.com. Thanks, homies.

Rumor has it the Neptunes have dissolved their hit-making production partnership...and if that's the case, I'm pretty sure I'll barely make a difference on anything Pharrell is involved with.

"Party people, party people..." "...can y'all get funky?"
If this were any other Friday I would be fielding call after call of party offers while I tried one after the other to let the caller down gently. Usually I would be a mere hours away from spending another Friday night working the overnight shift at a local radio staion, dreading the drunken calls I knew I would be receiving at 2:01AM saying "Dude!

This one needs no introduction. By far, "Planet Rock" is one of the most innovative, iconic, and ground breaking hip hop joints ever.
