Review

Mantronik was born Kurtis Khaleel in Jamaica, though his family soon moved to Canada and ended up in New York by the late 70s. Mantronik soon began DJing around the city and was working behind the decks at Manhattan’s Downtown Records when he met MC Tee (born Touré Embden). After the duo had assembled a demo tape, they gave it to William Socolov, president of Sleeping Bag Records. Their full-length became a big hit in the streets in 1985 and even crossed over to join the first wave of Hip Hop chartmakers. The second Mantronix LP, “Music Madness”,released in 1986, continued to keep the duo fresh in the clubs. The album includes the hit “We Control the Dice” and the title track “Music Madness” amoung others. All songs were edited by CHEP NUNEZ, except “Megamix” which was edited by OMAR SANTANA (one of the LATIN RASCALS). Both men are known as two OGs of the crazy edits, the edits were instrumental to this album’s impact, and influenced a generation of aspiring DJs and producers.
