Mantronix – Bassline

Kurtis Mantronik was always ahead of the times. Back when rap pioneers like Run-DMC and LL Cool J were rapping over stripped-down, minimalist beats, Mantronik, via his group Mantronix with MC Tee, was pushing the boundaries of hip-hop sonic landscape beyond hard drums and DJ scratches.

With “Bassline,” the signature track from his debut selftitled album, he fused electro-funk elements with vocoder and synthesizer, resulting in a dynamic new sound that was often imitated but never equaled.

Get On Down is proud to present this classic single on a brand new 7” blue vinyl pressing, featuring the vocal and instrumental versions.
