Earth People - Dance (Beats) Classic House Music

[lurning]

nothing compares to this fierce pal joey track.

[newmonkeycrew1]

got this on vinyl love it :)

[FrankiexNYC]

Roxy NYC - Saturday Nights!

[Djdukemarcil]

i remember this track like it was yesterday !!

[OldFolxRock]

Im tellin u , beats nowadays only last for a hot second inside a true soul. Beats like this right here tho light u up every single time you hear it. Many present beatmakers need to inject their God givin skills inside their music. It makes a difference .....

[LDav72]

This song and Hot Music were the two hottest club songs of all time.....

[oozie1379]

Thats me snapping my fingers at 0:51 lol

[chriswhiteiii]

It is all about that train whistle sample!

[houseMuzikJunkie]

Wow, damn, ...this is the sh#$%. It's when house entered my life. Red Zone-NYC-Dave Morales, Sound Factory - West 27th st . When I heard the music and saw the battles in the circle, I was hooked.

[ThePlatano2020]

GARAGE SOUNDS BABY N.Y.C !

[twilolight]

This track should _NOT_ be played on a CD player but on a Technics turntable. Not only does new music suck these days but so does the methods for playing it back. This track owns! I have two copies on VINYL.

[Prophetic1Dj]

MOST DEFINITELY

[alxzhouz]

lov it................. shelter club classic

[roch1974]

[t0pn0tchb0ss3]

!!! I GOT BEATS !!!

[scientrophic]

Thanks for posting!

[filedetubarao]

Gostava mais quando era mesmo no Vinil!!!

[STARTREKFANIMATED]

one of the dullest records i've ever heard

[scientrophic]

@STARTREKFANIMATED You need to hear it on a good sound system to really hear and feel the low end of the kick. If you haven't heard it in the club, then you haven't heard it. This track came out in 1990, way ahead of its time with the syncopated kicks on 4&5/8&1, plus the diminished horn chord falling between 4&5 with reverb turned way up. Listen to recent house tracks, soulful, deep, tech- whatever, and these motifs are coming back. It's a track made for dancing, not for armchair navel gazing.

[iamblankdotnet]

@scientrophic I've heard this at the Sound Factory in NYC and many of the 80s clubs and you aren't lying. Most of this music was written and engineered with those places in mind. its like watching Star Wars on your iPhone. It just doesn't work that way. You have to see it at the drive-in theatre or another giant screen.. Its the way they were intended to be experienced.

[phchmogh]

@STARTREKFANIMATED one of the dullest comments I've ever read.

[STARTREKFANIMATED]

@phchmogh how original

[djtunes2008]

amussing this, reminds me of kiss fm but also the intro like debbie malones rescue me another slighty commerical house track that i still won't knock.

[nowexit]

[decimus81]

[wallstreet07]

You guys are taking me back with MARS... wow, how many times did I leave there at 4 in the morning to make it to school... had how many pairs of platform shoes. One thing though... the hottest club of them all RED ZONE with that hot ass light in the front. I had my first drink there dancing on stage to Humpty, a sex on the beach... those were the days 1988/1989/1999.... BRING IT BACK!!!

[nevets68]

I loved MARS, especially hanging out on the roof and looking over the Hudson river. My other clubs were (in no particular order) : Red zone Save the robots Struts Kilimanjaro Home Base The World RoseLand Sound Factory (and SF BAR) Smores Nells. :D

[mrcrews]

[2wonfu]

The Tunnel, Sound Factory, Red Zone, The Underground.!!!!!

I'd hit all these clubs in NYC every weekend back in 90-92!

[yankessnperu]

a list of a true house head....I been to all of those too....Mind blowing...Red Zone was Special..The Tunnel and The Underground was literaly a underground house heaven.....I was Personally Addicted to Roselands.....NYC!!!

[Mature]

TOP TUNE TOP BEAT.

[lilreg73]

[viper740i]

[yaszy12]

hey what about club zanzibar america club 88 sensations brokers inthe late90s

[DeJota712]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!

[caroinawildcatsaau]

New York hardcore-deep house!!!

[cavaleer]

OHH!!! MYYYY!!! GODDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tears streaming down my cheeks. I never thought I'd find this again.

ONE MILLION THANK YOUS!!!!!!!

[Drinalin]

if i could give you a million thumbs up for that comment....

i'm a young house head; 24, but only been listening for about 5 months. ...i'm hooked, period. lol it's the only music that I like to skate to.

[cavaleer]

Ooh-Rah to you young man. There's nothing else quite like House. When I find other music I haven't heard in years it doesn't strike my heart the way House does. There's something very unique about it. It's a shame you can't see and dance to it the way we did when this song and all the classics first came out. The dancing style, known as Housin', was the other side of the coin to the music. Maybe some people in NYC still do it but everything is so dull with rap or corn, gay techno. Rock on.

[dabx1]

yea i feel you. im yoing,21. but i'm raised on house music, love it with heart! i hang out with alot of old school people who teach me alot about house music. So im very appriciative& besides house music is legendary it'll never die out

[lacrazia3]

Oh you real house heads are taking back to my old stompin grounds! NYC was the only place to be back then and I was there!

[Bips69]

Who could forget Tony Humphries at Zanzibar in Newark??!!?? He used to run this song for at least 20 minutes or more....

[Deepworld10]

Zanz was the spot.....Not even the Garage could mess with it....

[nevets68]

Remember Bentleys?

Or The Milk Bar / Save the Robots / Roseland ,etc? :)

[ryanismym]

@nevets68 do I... my mother was a regular there... I know all about it.... NYC TILL I DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nevets68]

Unfortunately those days (the clubbing days) are long , long gone. I've been out of the loop as it were for years regarding the NYC "scene".

I wish there was a place to dance (as badly as I do..I dance like I'm having a full body seizure;0) , where it's not about how you look, it's about the vibe.

Sigh.

[alkh3myst]

Come on down to the Coney Is. boardwalk this late spring/summer, see how we throw down. From there you can get right 'back in the loop', start getting flyers and see where the happenings are. Summer is loaded with outdoor parties. Water Taxi Beach L.I. City, South St. Seaport, PS 1, Central Park on Sundays, Soul Summit @ Ft, Greene Pk, Brooklyn, and on and on. Never too late. I stopped hanging out for years until '08. It was like I never left. Most of the big clubs are gone though, high rents.

[elsunn]

Water Taxi summer nights party, the Body & Soul PS2 parties, Cielo on little west 18th st (maybe 12th?) theres still a bunch of good parties and good vibes out there. Cielo is probably your best bet and most consistent.

[DaSjieb]

@nevets68 : Word my brother, it seems more about being 'cool' these days than appreciating the music itself. Face it, the genre attracts a lot of wanna-be's. But there is hope... often the more small, cosy underground parties attract people that really do come for the music. DJ'ing myself I'm enjoying myself more with three people dancing their ass off on the dancefloor than a crowd of 'cool' people who aren't interested in the music but trying to be more cool than the guy/girl next to them.

[lpage87]

@nevets68 yes man they r it's all about who can shake their ass the hardest nothing about dance feeling the musz i miss it so much

[ryanismym]

@Bips69 club america as well....they use to go it!!!!!!!

[Supernap1]

the keyboards reminds of me of Madonna's "Fever" version......

[PalmerWhit]

That's because Madonna used to hang in the clubs, and biter that she is (love how she bites). She lifted samples from Love Break for Vogue...........and there is no mistake in saying that this track inspired Fever

[erosjortex1]

Go into any rich neighborhood where morals are clean play this song the original that breaks down into the sax for a half hour in any american town not high and dont steal with any moral looking life vs any hard core moral looking life compare police reaction without head jamming and test your spirit in front of your own eyes.

[dreamlogicc]

eehhhhh...what?

[Hipster420]

to erosjortex1; I don't think anybody understood what your trying to say..and how does it relate to the vid/music?

[thomdancer]

by far the best version just the dope beats ruff as fuck!

[jvarga31]

reminds me of the old days of house and battling people to this.

[peteyq007]

Brings back memories of after hours clubs the Building and the shelter.

[2721101669]

Do you have "Searching"?.....

[FunkMasterGreg]

Anybody know the mix where some chick recites "Oh wow sugar bear opps" over and over? I don't know if she says that but it sounds like that.

[parriaga]

I thought I would never find this version of "Dance". Great memories of Emerald City & 20 West!

[Javidogg]

Nothing But Old School Chicago House Music.
