What is the first freestyle music record?
Many sources cite Shannon's 1983 record "Let the Music Play" as the first true freestyle record, differentiating from the purely electro funk of Afrika Bambaataa's & The Soul Sonic Force's "Planet Rock." The record accented Latin American rhythms and a heavy syncopated drum sound that redefined electro.
However, other records following in the wake of "Planet Rock" have also been listed as freestyle music.
One More Shot - C-Bank (1982)
Play At Your Own Risk - Planet Patrol (1982)
Situation - Yaz (1982)
Don't Go - Yaz (1982)
Get Wet - C-Bank (1983)
I.O.U. - Freeez (1983)
Pop Goes My Love - Freeez (1983)
Dominatrix Sleeps Tonight - Dominatrix (1983)
White Lines (Don't Do it) - Grandmaster Flash & Melle Mel (1983)
Din Daa Daa (Der Trommeltanz) - George Kranz (1983)
