there was also the Art of Noise early records like "Beat Box".
was a pretty quick thing to discover, that you could put a vocal noise on a keyboard and riff it
and they had to be truncated and stabby, because the sample time was only a second and a half or something like that. crazy limitation, but afforded so much delight and invention.
i don't think i ever heard 'Just Buggin' - wonderful stuff. (great video too)
Nu Shooz is a real charmer, they still play that on 80s radio here
