i always thought this song would be perfect if covered by dag nasty (in their best period)... could work so well as a skaty hardcore tune...

Weirdly enough I was in my friend's car last night listening to the new Me First & The Gimme Gimmes album (which is great!) and, in my head, trying to come up the best early 90s rave tunes that were ripe for being covered in a skatepunk fashion such as this. Then I got drunk and forgot them all

Feels like nu-Balearic and wedding disco revivalism between them have turned a fair few of these into acknowledged classics now.

"let me be your underwear" and "spin that wheel" are like undeniable. people hate fun i guess. also come on those are somewhat talked about. joey negro isn't exactly out of the conversation - that one is on one of his compilations from a few years ago. "spin that wheel" is au courant because of octo octa, at least it was last year.
fuck an idm revival i want an electrohouse revival. no one talks about electrohouse. no one talks about edm. i had the illest sex with this kid in his electric daisy carnival bedroom to an edm mix a few years ago. i don't really want to go to edc but i want an edc friend or two in my life so i can check out mixes now and then.
there's a crowd in my small city that is all about searching for and playing their somewhat obscure "thing" defined by pretty strict paramaters and oh my god that hyper-curated extremely tasteful sound can be so incredibly boring. someone posted a teki latex mix on the mixes thread and ra touted it as this example of like fun vocals mixed with sick beats but the beats themselves were just like raw reduced ballroom ish house - again, "tastefully" fun. kinda boring. i wish people would hype it up a little bit. flirt with being dumb and commercial and obvious. heaven fucking forbid.

― boxedjoy, Saturday, 12 September 2020 19:11 (three years ago) link
but yes to electrohouse from the mid 00s, yes to vocal Jersey garage house from the mid 90s, yes to Frankie Knuckles and David Morales remixes of r&b hits, please

Boxedjoy - it's on her Resident Advisor mix, which is a real break-glass-in-emergency party mix and a delight from start to finish.

i've been buying a lot of strictly rhythm trash lately, including this one

i also grabbed a couple of planet soul EPs and some speed garage

i think the remit of this thread is probably even less tasteful than strictly rhythm trash and robin s ... but that's all i got ...
planet soul couldn't stay away from the speed up slow down dyanmics trick they first found fame with on "set u free" ... one trick ponies!

Ha this was probably me. I totally hear what you're saying, but for me, the kind of dance music I'm into (ie what I post on the reconstructed club thread as if it were my personal blog) is more colorful and fun than most of the bobbins material. To get reductive about it, I'm always looking for the pure rhythmic adrenaline rush that I get from classic Baltimore/Jersey/Chicago/ballroom/regional etc club music, but also with the fresh takes and crazy sound design from people all over that get lumped into 'experimental' or whatever.
― change display name (Jordan), Saturday, 12 September 2020 20:09 (three years ago) link
eh "colorful and fun" are personal value judgments, no?
― the late great, Saturday, 12 September 2020 20:12 (three years ago) link
i mean at the end of the day even my best records are boring inert pieces of black wax, it's the collective experience of clubbing that is colorful and fun, and that can be soundtracked by literally anything as long as the crowd is right
