"More and More" - Captain Hollywood Project
and
"Flagpole Sitta" - Harvey Danger
and
"Funk Dat" - Sagat
and
"The Mask" - Fugees

ARE we dancing to flagpole sitta at the club?

i mean i like it but i always heard it in cars and dorm rooms

Total banger

hard rep for "flagpole sitta"

map posted it upthread but the correct answer is white town's "your woman"

Mousse T vs Hot N Juicy "Horny"
Stardust "Music Sounds Better With You"
B-52s "Love Shack"
Cliviles & Cole "Pride (A Deeper Love)"
Bjork "Big Time Sensuality"
Toni Braxton "Unbreak My Heart (Frankie Knuckles Remix)"
Armand Van Helden "You Don't Know Me"

Personally I am not a fan but I have noticed lately that crowds lap up the tribal house remixes of Spice Girls that were b-sides at the time

my real answer is probably "Gypsy Woman" but just gonna throw

Eiffel 65 - "Blue (Ba Da Bee)" on the pile

oh and

Lonnie Gordon - Do You Want It (John Robinson Vibration Mix)
Brenda K. Starr - I Don't Know What To Do (Mentalinstrum Dub)

good call on meat beat manifesto!

my club is the club where overweight kids can feel free to dance with each other while wearing trenchcoats, spandex cycling shorts and mountaineering sunglasses, so i would offer up...

front 242's "tragedy >for you<"

i have an awesome alanis/trance white label bootleg single from the 90s and now i can't think of what song they use. its not uninvited. shit. i'll have to dig it out. its better than a lot of official remixes i've heard of hers.

!

Did we get this far already without mentioning FSOL “Papua New Guinea”

also for when you need a bathroom break during dj set:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0oYoRg6Ws9U

i'd play all the underworld but sadly i think it's gonna be a snooze for my crowd. i might be able to get away with born slippy nuxx. the other one i thought about was king of snake. or rez / cowgirl...

speaking of FSOL - their remix of Stereo MC’s Connected very much slaps imo

update: no one really wanted to hear 90s music last night so i defaulted to my "gay club hits" set (think charli/chappell, rihanna, kesha, gaga, minaj, etc.). i did execute my dumb idea of playing "the rain (supa dupa fly)" after gaga's "rain on me" and basically cleared the floor. the only 90s song that really hit was "man i feel like a woman". it was a joy to play and sounded great. ending things with a lil kim track was also cool, i get so many nicki minaj requests there that she's in the club.

Or the clurb

i have an awesome alanis/trance white label bootleg single from the 90s

Hybrid remix of So Pure?

that might have been it. i really have to try and find it now. there is no info on it other than a title but my old age is showing. blanking on it.

i fucking adore "The Rain" but it's more a walking home tune than an in the clurb tune

the only 90s song that really hit was "man i feel like a woman"

Queer Gen Z line dancing is a big thing these days!

It’s a total jam

if you play this at the clurb make sure you play the video for maximum vibes

i definitely danced to this multiple times though i cannot attest to it being in any way “good”?

yeah

"please don't go" is great. makes me think of boyz II men.

most forgotten 5-week uk no. 1 of the last 40 years

KWS were from my home town, but I still can’t stand Please Don’t Go… even if it was one of the better tracks on their godawful album!

its not even a very good KC & The Sunshine Band song but somehow i have nostalgia for it idk idk

This one always gets great crowd response, I attribute this to a) everyone knows the hook and b) it has the Show Me Love Korg M1 lead.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6lxifd-EmI

Oh this is great, totally gonna use it!

Only thing I don't like as a DJ is that it has scratching and a big backspin, so what do you do - lean into it and fake it, or demonstratively not do anything during those bits?

outrageous racism to not nominate Boxcar's Insect

from 1989?

Album was 1990 and the re-edit of the Racic club mix was ‘92!

speaking of 1989, this came out at the end of 1989 but it was #20 on the billboard dance chart at the beginning of 1990. I have been loving it all year. so cool.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrZs4No7vZQ

i like all the mixes too. i have no idea where it would fit in a dj set though.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3NzI0egJYQ

This is another one of my faves for mid-90s sets, super easy to mix the intro in with the outgoing track and when the U2 riff drops the floor always gets going. And not so overplayed like 9pm Till I Come or Show Me Love.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shrmo4YwOfU

Oh, they used to play a version of that at Trade...
