BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1987
“Masterhit” is a 1987 single by the Belgian electronic music group Front 242 that came into prominence during the 1980s. Pioneering the style they called electronic body music, they were a profound influence on the electronic and industrial music genres. Released by Wax Trax! Records, “Masterhit” appears on the band’s third studio album “Official Version”.
The sample saying “You know me and I sure know you, everyone” is from the surreal 1983 sci-fi movie “Videodrome” written & directed by David Cronenberg.
