Los Angeles-based producer Greg Broussard is the man behind pioneering Electronic Boogie artist the Egyptian Lover.

Egyptian Lover records didn't start appearing until several years after the New York and Miami electro scenes were already in full swing, by the mid-'80s Egyptian Lover cuts like Egypt, Egypt were standards among club DJs, particularly in the break-dance scene. Early cuts such as Computer Love and Dance were among Egyptian Lover's most experimental, with the material appearing through the latter half of the '80s increasingly flirting with full-blown rap by adding more vocals and melodic hooks. While more of his material dates from the latter phase, it's his earlier releases that remain his most accomplished, and they're routinely namechecked by a new generation of producers such as Autechre and I-F inspired by electro's first wave. Also a member of Uncle Jamm's Army and the force behind a half dozen labels including Freak Beat and Egyptian Empire. After nearly a decade, Egyptian Lover released the digitally edited compilation Pyramix, then hit the studio again and produced new tracks in the same funky electro style for the album Back From the Tomb.
