Here we are on Tuesday, and me posting Friday Fun…and soon Tuesday Fun!
Title: High
Artist: Hyper Go Go
Label: Deconstruction
Genre(s): House, Rave/Hardcore, Breaks
Year released: 1992
I know I’ve been nuts with the piano influences, but summer brings that out in me. I first heard High when I picked up a compilation of what was known as “Future House” back in 1993, which contained the “new” (at the time) sounds of underground house music. I just liked the upbeat kick of High and have often contemplated remixing it for the more modern age.
Hyper Go Go themselves are Alex Bell and James Diplock. They met in school and wanted to make music. They hit big with High, but seemingly never jumped up into big acclaim with anything else…but they still pop up here and then.
Title: Clap Your Hands
Artist: DJ Pierre AKA The Don
Label: Strictly Rhythm
Genre(s): House, Disco House
Year released: 2000
It’s funny how I missed this tune when it came out originally, but caught it when the infamous documentary “Pump Up The Volume” aired. I ended up getting a copy from Beatport since, but I honestly liked the flow of this cut, even though it’s a simple sampling of Chic. In many ways, I felt it was an ideal “goodbye” to the 90s sound of house, and moving on into the 00s.
