Electro

Electro is said to have originated in the early 1970s and was a blend of early hip hop and rap combined with German and Japanese electropop influences with Arthur Baker producing the crown jewel of electro the Afrika Bambaataa release "Planet Rock". The sound is often described as heavy reliance on drum machines and heavy electronic sounds but occasionally would have vocals run through electronic distortion as demonstrated in Planet Rock.

If you want some funky style hiphop beats then Electro is for you!
