    Default Ah oh uh - Electro mid 80s?

    Hi all,

    After an old electro (When it was proper electro!) track.

    My mate had a tape with a few big name tunes on in the mid 80s. Stuff like break-dance party and rockit if I remember correct.

    However the other side was amazing. Unfortunately it had this MC who would shout over the top from time time. I distinctly remember his saying "glide glide glide, baby glide glide" etc.

    One of the track (and all of the tracks on this side of the tape sounded like they had been done by the same team) had on particular track where someone said (not the MC) "Ah oh uh"
    It sounded like particular chunks of a word had been sampled and then cuts made to come up with 'Ah Oh Uh' and used to great effect given the crude samplers around at the time unless you spent a trillion on a Fairlight.

    I wouldn't at all be surprised, if this is a very well know track, EP, set of remixes of one track, as to be honest it was pure genius. SO good some electro expert must have heard of it.

    Any help greatly appreciated!

    sounds like a sample of Chris 'The Glove' Taylor-Itchiban Scratch the Ah Oh Uh bit
    U know why it's a brilliant manipulation of negative space

    Just remembering the MC said a few other cheesy things.

    "Arm goes down elbow goes up high, shoulder to the head now give it a try."
