I tried to get into Front 242 a few years ago. And I failed. My brain has very limited reserves of love for old school EBM :<

[CellarDweller]

How about some more Grace Jones?

[Iceblink]

Old school house. The first two songs are basically the same song with different vocal samples. A late 80's Chicago sound in most of these tracks that kind of defined the sound of after hours clubs in the late 80's and 90's. The Paris Gray song, lead singer of the band Inner City, is an outstanding early house vocal track.

A vocal trance classic.

I love this one the most (I listened to all of them yesterday and I liked all of them but this was my favorite)...I am pretty sure I heard it before....

[East]

OK...gonna show my age...back to the mid to late 70s......

I definitely liked stuff with a heavy R&B Influence at the time....I did the DJ thing sometimes and this is the stuff I played...I could mix in and out of it really well...had my BPMs down LOL

I don't think I'm able to share videos until I have 50 post .. Ugh I'm a dancer, feels great to know not the only one interested in the arts of physical movement! I'm mostly I to contemporary and jazz. I'll share some videos when I reach 50 posts ugh.

This thread is oh so retro! Lemme try to go into my old school mode.













And some very dancable artists from the 00's who don't seem to have realized that the 80's is over:

[Iceblink]

The massive Hercules & Love Affair dance floor hit from 2008. Antony Hegarty's vocals are astounding and it was remixed by the great Frankie Knuckles.



Their new song released a couple months ago and its homoerotic video.
