    Now this time I didn’t rely on my memory to find my classics, I went were I keep my old vinyl and did some digging.
    (Wasnt looking at those for quite a while).
    And I found one box labeled with ‘Must Play’.
    So from this box my 3 classics:

    Delegation – Stand Up Reach For The Sky (1979)
    These guys were playing a few times live in an local club. Awesome memories:

    Chic – Le Freak (1978)
    Undeniable a timeless masterpiece.

    Steve Arrington – Feel So Real (1985)
    Brilliant piece of feel-good-music

    Good Day Everyone!
    Love this Friday and Tuesday sharing, such a great idea.

    Here are two tunes from me. It was probably 1998 when I received a cassette with these songs on it from my friend for my birthday.

    Title: How Bizarre
    Artist: OMC
    Year: 1994

    The second track – I guess you guys had it and not once – when you heard a song 20 years ago, forget it completely and stumble upon it at the most unexpected moment a generation later. This was my moment 3 months ago:

    Title: Swamp Thing
    Artist: The Grid
    Year: 1994

    (Trying to embed videos for the first time, hope it will work)

    Have a great weekend!

    Is it possible to add always a link to last weeks Flashback Friday in the first post?
    That would make it easier to go through all the last posts.

    Gerd, here’s last week’s: http://www.digitaldjtips.com/topic/flashback-friday-music-share-for-05292015/

    That Delegation tune is just begging to be remixed into some funky house.

    d-M…I so remember getting that Grid track from a record pool long ago. Never found a place to play it.

    Snake…Massive Attack is like Leftfield to me. I never appreciated them back then, but now I do. Always found that strange about myself.

    OK, I’m going to start off with a tune I mentioned in the first Flashback Friday, but had posted another tune.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Cqyj658S1w

    Title: Sueño Latino (Winter Remix)
    Artist: Sueño Latino
    Label: Blanco Y Negro, Capitol Records

    Genre(s): Italo House, Balearic House
    Year Released: 1989

    Sueño Latino was a project made up of several DJs and producers who are now seen as the fathers of the Italo House genre. Funny enough, the tune was mainly made up of a sample from an avant-garde electronic composition titled E2-E4, by German composer Manuel Göttsching. After its release, the team actually enlisted Göttsching to come and add guitar for the Winter Remix, which is my personal favorite.

    I had first heard Sueño Latino on a megamix record made by two twin female Italian DJs who called themselves Rococo. From that point I had to dig up a 12″ of the original. I personally look at the tune as the very first “Ibiza Anthem”, but that’s not anything official. It’s Balearic sound just carries you off to thoughts of warm beaches, colored by a beautiful sunrise (or sunset), and I can imagine it blowing up on the island back then.

    One of my most fond memories of Sueño Latino was when I played at a 3-day outdoor rave about ten years ago. With every stage/tent pumping techno and jungle, I wanted to stand out, so with Final Scratch at hand I played a set of old school house. I’ll never forget when I dropped Sueño Latino and the sun began to set. You have to imagine that blissful tune playing with a forest around us, sun setting. It seemed magical and I always have that moment in my head when I hear this tune.

    Here’s another one:

    Title: Luv Is All You Need (Ralphi’s Get Another Cocktail 12″ Mix)
    Artist: 99 Allstars
    Label: Pitch Records

    Genre(s): Trial House, Garage House
    Year Released: 1996

    99 Allstars is actually a alternative name for the 90s producer/remixer team of Marc Dillon and Patrick Dickins. While their versions of Luv Is All You Need were decent, it was Ralphi Rosario’s remix that won hearts and minds on both dancefloors and in record shops. Ralphi himself introduced the record to me and others when he played a guest spot at a club I was resident at back in the mid-90s. Took me a long time though to track down that record…after all, this was before Shazam, or smartphones for that matter!

    I just love the deep groove of this tune, the dark voice, and the tribal beats Ralphi would put into a lot of his work back then.
