house was music till ghetto house came into the scene then it all went downhill from there - The eurohouse came , remember dj markski? and then our latin house was replaced by this on the radio. I was mixing on 2 gemini1100 turntables when I was 10 years old. I bought them from my cousin for 100 bucks. Used to go to the flea market on division and buy my records for 3 dollars! I built my turntable table from a piece of wood and milk crates! I loved mixing it up!
considering his broad spectrum of music when mixing, back in '86-'87, ranging from italo disco, house, freestyle to pop and funk, Julian Perez was truly the DJ to listen at that time, not to mention his pretty neat mixing skills, considering all styles that hes going thru in his sets RESPECT!
Ah, okay... I found the position of the original mix... Is in the mittle of the song... Yaaay... I love that... I want to recreate some of my lovely mixes of WBMX into one file... If I'm done... I upload it... :-) Hope you will enjoy it... Respect to Hot Mix 5... The best of all I ever heard... They told the stroy of Housemusik and Djing... Love them... :-)
for all you house heads out their deephousepage com has alot of old mixes like this oh yeah and Chicago STAND UP!!!!!!!! cause we know we are the originators of house it
@ Soyboy.Obviously you never lived in Chicago.There are Gangbangers on here because us real Chicagoans are GD's.You must have been one of those suburban pussies!
FUUUUUUK, this really takes me back. Peace out to every one that was there at THE time, that was life baybee. Chi town Graff Raves and all the gritty, damn!
All my tapes are on big gigantic "vat" LOL.... a big plastic bin. I tried to keep it all organized, but when I'd go into the box I'd pull this out and that out and before I knew it it was a big pile of mess! That's how it's stored now just a pile in this big box. When I ever get the tapes out (if I can ever get to them in my storage unit) it will be a big project figureing out what's what!
I remember mixes like this playing on Saturday night here in San Diego, and this was the party background music at home, getting ready to go out, in the car until we got to "the club!!" Just brings back a more youthful time for me.
I can remember mixing @ house partys on technic BD 1's using penciles & pennys to weigh down the tonearm. House music and the dance that came wit it has been etched into my brain.JACK IT UP HOUSE NATION!
hey whats that song at 0:35 ish? PLEASE put up a playlist !!! theres songs I want on this tape! House heads for life!! and 2:22 someone throw a sista a bone.
@ollieG1000 - I got my tapes in 2 tupperwears. STIL have my double cassette boombox (sony kicksass) and theyre gonna hav to bury me with my fav cassette tape. I cried the day it broke. stil holding out hope I can find a way to fix it.
It's funny how this is what Top 40 music sounds like today (a watered down one obviously). Music hasn't changed all that much, or the mainstream has just caught with the advancements in Dance Music from the last 25 years.
God is good to hear the jamming cassette play again I was 11 years old HOUSE music was and will be the best of all times.. for 107.5 WGCI Radio FM Chicago and wB B BMX The Originators of the Hot Mix with Mario Smoking DJ on 102.7 The new BMX
This was an amazing period in our lives. The music was everywhere, and the mixes were better than you can imagine. Grateful to have been there and heard it. Thanks to all who made it and posted it.
one of these tracks is by Kano around the 2:20 minute mark. The rest i recognize: Trinere-they're playing our song, Freestyle-don't stop the rock, communicate (is it over) i've heard before..whois the artist?
AAAAH!!! This is the greatest!!! I am so glad that someone was able to save this music from back in the day. I have spent the last 10 minutes busting moves in my living room! House was my life. Just saw Mark Farina in Denver, CO. and it was funny to laugh and share stories of growing up with Chicago House!!! Freestyle just came on and I have chills running through my veins!!! Friggin AWESOME!!!!
I wouldnt know anything from back in the cause im still young but my sisters got me listening to house and ill prefer it over anything they play on the radio today
im busting out my corduroy pants and my pumas and go cruise fullerton they dont music like this anymore i consider myself luckty to have heard all this great music in the day
Wish i can go back in time!!! Best times Chicago style!! use to travel out of state and ppl that use to hear this musice in my ride would always ask where i got those mixes. Nothin like Chicago mixes back then!!
For sure! The spontaneous dance parties right on the shores of Lake Michigan! The fri and Sat night. -- we all had the cassette tapes going! 102.7 W-B-M-X Oak PARK- CHicag0000! I don't get why it hasn't made more of a comeback. I would burn a tank of gas on a weekend. No big deal. ALWAYS a party and the people could dance then...Everybody could dance!
you know,u can still listen to WBMX if u google search internet radio and download toolbar,ie Web-Radio.its as good now as it was then by the sound of things.+ thousands of other radio stations from round the world.
What's with all the gangbangers on this thread?!?! Anyway, :01-:07 is the ending of "I Can't Get Enough" by Liz Torres; :08 is "To The Beat Of The Drum" by Wired; 1:50 is "Plastic Doll" by Dharma; 2:50 is "Play Another Song For Me" by Olga; 5:09 is "They're Playing Our Song" by Trinere; 6:39 is "Don't Stop The Rock" by Freestyle; 7:59 is "Communicate" by Full House. BTW, you can find all these songs on YouTube.
i even saw the what link things to each other that normally are not thinking like they would think laying around later chillin in chicago just kinda looped one into the other like its a favor to (dont bully or terror
Many of the D.J.s on WBMX and WGCI would mix House, Techno, Disco Italo and freestyle in one mix. Generally, if the DJ was hispanic (Julian Perez/Ralphie Rosario) they mixed more latin house and freestlye. Farley and Steve Silk Hurley would spin more soul and black sounding house.
"GET ON DOWN AND PARTY" LOL, I remember that phrase. I remember being a lil shorty back in the 80's running around Lake Shore Drive, going to the Shed Aquarium, the Museum of S.I., eating Leon's BBQ (before THEY took over) and shopping with my mom...Hey you guys remember ZAYRE'S and VENTURE...They were the walmarts of their time.
OMG...Zayre's and Venture....classic! The local grocery store in the Harbor was A&P. Main Street was booming. Anyone from the Harbor remember Chicken Unlimited?
i wasn't from tha Harbor but from Gary. I do remember A&P where Sterks is at now. Zayre's was on Ridge rd. It seemed like everybody & they moms was a House dj back in tha day
I can't believe the mix I am hearing right now, These are the jams that brings me back and missing Chi Town back in the dayz. Memories I tell ya, when these came out I was waiting when the week was over so WBMX Dance Party can come on and man it was worth the wait for the week to be over with
this shit is the bomb, i can remember cruisin in my 85 buick ltd jammin this shit on the northside of chytown.....going down to the rocks with a cooler and some good bud.
Some people, here, know the name of music's, inside this mix? I'm from Brazil, I like so much classics like this, here, was a great success in our pass.
Man man man.....back in the day i was the master of recording all these hits from wbmx and wgci (bmx was still better though.) and i still have all of em except three....this was the shit!!!!! That garbage they try to pass off as house music now is just that GARBAGE!!! that shit should be banned from the airwaves!!
I still have these tapes. I used to hit record before I went to bed. The click from the end of the tape would wake me up and I would just flip it over and go back to sleep. Man, back in the day...
yes, Lord!!!! same here!!! waking up to the tape stopping was like human nature to all of us taping these badass mixes back then.....i can't get out of my head the many trips i used to take to my local neighborhood walgreen's to buy another 2 pack of SONY, TDK, MAXELL, cheap ass TONEMASTER(yellow/black label, gray label) tapes to keep these cuts on permanent record......the good stuff never dies..........
Uh huh, still have a Tonemaster with mixes on it. Once I get time, the whole thing is going to mp3's. I'm keeping the tape hiss and all! :-) I feel bad for those who think the stuff they call house now is the real deal. They have NO clue.
By now I know everyone was taping this stuff 90 min at a time but wat freaks me out is that even the brand of tapes you have here are EXACTLY the ones I have. IT's weird!!! Are you in my basement? :)
It's funny, I've listened to some of these tracks over 100 times again I expect them to leed into other songs; like Bostich- Yello or Lime's -Angel Eyes. But it throws me when the tracks don't leed into the ones I expect. Thanks for the post.
I see those tapes and it brings back soo many fucking good memories. Those Maxell, TDK's & Sony's were scattered all over my room and car. Everybody would always want to dub everybody else's tapes. I can remember before I started mixing that I would sit there with my finger on the pause button to get rid of the station drops. So many great mixes on GCI & BMX in 87.
yea this way a great fukin time, ihave a case full of them. any where in chi-town ppl were jus party's, house basement, garage , jus abt any where they could plug in.
One of my Uncles owned McGrevy's around this time and we used to roll up there on the weekends. Julian would be in there spinning for an hour, drop the tape off at the station and then roll on to the next club. Was tight! Got to meet all of the big names.
Saw this dude several years ago on NYE. He started his set with ACIEEEED and I danced his whole set.I remember WBMX from way back. We used cut the W out and use the BMX casue we were BMX kids. Did not listen a lot back then because I can not listen to Diva house.
When I was little kid in Philly, you heard shit like this in the park in the summer time when people used to break and pop in street. Just like in the movies!
I remember 1987-88 and I was in the Marines in SoCal..I had these homies that would go home on leave to Chicago, Milwaukee and Kenosha, etc. They would bring back these cassettes and we would party and play these songs out!!!! It's like I'm 18 years old again and I'm hearing this crazy music again...Love It!! Thanks!!!
I second that. CHI-TOWN... NUFF SAID MF. D/W KING SCRAPPY.

I still have these tapes. I used to hit record before I went to bed. The click from the end of the tape would wake me up and I would just flip it over and go back to sleep. Man, back in the day...

yes, Lord!!!! same here!!! waking up to the tape stopping was like human nature to all of us taping these badass mixes back then.....i can't get out of my head the many trips i used to take to my local neighborhood walgreen's to buy another 2 pack of SONY, TDK, MAXELL, cheap ass TONEMASTER(yellow/black label, gray label) tapes to keep these cuts on permanent record......the good stuff never dies..........

Uh huh, still have a Tonemaster with mixes on it. Once I get time, the whole thing is going to mp3's. I'm keeping the tape hiss and all! :-) I feel bad for those who think the stuff they call house now is the real deal. They have NO clue.

By now I know everyone was taping this stuff 90 min at a time but wat freaks me out is that even the brand of tapes you have here are EXACTLY the ones I have. IT's weird!!! Are you in my basement? :)
It's funny, I've listened to some of these tracks over 100 times again I expect them to leed into other songs; like Bostich- Yello or Lime's -Angel Eyes. But it throws me when the tracks don't leed into the ones I expect. Thanks for the post.

Man Locum, that ain't no lie my friend.
I see those tapes and it brings back soo many fucking good memories. Those Maxell, TDK's & Sony's were scattered all over my room and car. Everybody would always want to dub everybody else's tapes. I can remember before I started mixing that I would sit there with my finger on the pause button to get rid of the station drops. So many great mixes on GCI & BMX in 87.

One of my Uncles owned McGrevy's around this time and we used to roll up there on the weekends. Julian would be in there spinning for an hour, drop the tape off at the station and then roll on to the next club. Was tight! Got to meet all of the big names.

Saw this dude several years ago on NYE. He started his set with ACIEEEED and I danced his whole set.I remember WBMX from way back. We used cut the W out and use the BMX casue we were BMX kids. Did not listen a lot back then because I can not listen to Diva house.

When I was little kid in Philly, you heard shit like this in the park in the summer time when people used to break and pop in street. Just like in the movies!

I remember 1987-88 and I was in the Marines in SoCal..I had these homies that would go home on leave to Chicago, Milwaukee and Kenosha, etc. They would bring back these cassettes and we would party and play these songs out!!!! It's like I'm 18 years old again and I'm hearing this crazy music again...Love It!! Thanks!!!
