How would you define Mantronix's sound? Hip Hop? Electro? Funk? House? A bit of everything, or none of the above? Whatever it is, their sound is certainly captivating and allowed these pioneers to bend, twist, and stretch the various musical genres they worked with. Kurtis Mantronik and MC Tee formed Mantronix in the early 80s, and from their very first tracks (notably "Fresh Is The Word"), they influenced modern music, sampled by the Beastie Boys, Beck, The Prodigy, and many others. For the first time, gathered in one compilation on a double LP, King of the Beats, The Anthology 1985-1988 presents their early work, considered by all to be their best period.
