Signal Path Egyptian Lover: 808 Black WAV

Egyptian Lover is back and Splice's Signal Path label is proud to present 808 Black. Egyptian Lover (born Greg Broussard) is a legend in the U.S. electro and hip hop scenes. Needless to say, we were excited when he spent a day at Sound Factory LA, bringing with him two hardware 808 units and a vocoder to lay down some samples and vocals. Egyptian Lover started out making mixtapes as a teenager, rhyming over tracks he recorded off the radio, before taking his mix of rhymes and electro beats to the LA streets as a member of Uncle Jamm's Army. Synonymous with the Roland TR-808, Broussard made history with his singles Egypt Egypt (1984) and Freak-A-Holic (1986). His signature pioneering move at one of his first DJ gigs was rewinding one of the records while another was still playing - history was made at that party. Now you can use his bumping 808s, distinctive vocals, and a variety of loops in your next project.
