Side 1. Egypt, Egypt Side 2. Girls

Ah yes, here is the famous repress of this year's Record Store Day reissue from the one and only Egyptian Lover; amorous by name and amorous by trade. The two tunes here are classic cuts from 1984's seminal On The Nile LP, a piece of work which blurred the lines between hip-hop, dance, and, well... Egyptian music! "Egypt, Egypt" is a banger on all accounts, a powerful concoction of 808n cowbells, vocoder vocals and a Casio reinterpretation of the stereotypical Egyptian sing song melody - you'll know what we mean as soon as it drops. Over on the flip you have "Girls", another blaster from the same LP, yet here the Lover is much more focussed on the power of the beats, and those heavy 808 kicks burst out of all angles. In short, it's nothing short of a total KILLER.
