This one is a journey through spoken-word house music of the late 80s and early 90s. This unique sub-genre of house music have always been a fascination of mine and I am very happy to share it with you all.
It features many great spoken word and poetic tracks of the classic house era. There is also a tiny sprinkling of hip-house (sometimes its hard to separate the two styles).
Many great records did not make the cut so maybe there will be a volume 2 sometime in the future.
Enjoy!
