On The Nile by is a groundbreaking album by Egyptian Lover. The pitch tuned songs, looped speech samples, and bitcrushed percussions are what stand out on this album. Electronic meets hip hop music on this album. Many fans of electro music and hip hop can agree that On The Nile was an album that was ahead of it's time. The album is an epic classic 80s rap album.
Girls is one of his strongest electro tracks for this album! The notes on Girls are pitch tuned at a fine level and position. The bitcrushed percussions help make the song stand out.
Computer Love (Sweet Dreams) was a robotic sounding electro song that was sure ahead of its time when this album was released in 1984. There is no doubt that Computer Love (Sweet Dreams) is a high-tech tune. The robotic sound is distorted and futuristic. The beats are not too thin or very processed.
On The Nile has a very interesting electronic soundscape over an upbeat dance sound akin to Afrika Bambaataa - Planet Rock from 1982. L.A.-based electro-hoppers instantly fell in love with the song after being played on KDAY Radio and being released as a single.
I rate this album, On The Nile, 5/5*****!!
