Night Moves - Transdance

[coreydarnell718]

The Garage New York 5AM....Larry Levan would spin this for a half-hour and the place would GO UP!!!!!!

[goblinb]

I totally remember this on WBMX and WGCI. The thing is is that this is so New Wave/Synth Pop(with a touch of Electro). The 80's were so much more eclectic. I can't imagine a black station playing anything like this now!

[Mannchild11]

Every human should own a copy of this.

[heartslad80s]

Tops !!!

[1IcyBombShell]

I love this song, seriously!!!

[Adjslife]

Beats pulling it out of the crates, thx for my vinyl flashback .

[Ni5ei]

Waaah, my favorite bassline synth solo at 3'53": MXR flanger/doubler M-126 rules!!!!

[funkinbeats]

I think that by listening to this you can definitely see that early house music often just associated with Chicago and NY derived from UK synth pop and Italo disco, yet many people never associate it's roots with Europe.

[MrMallymal68]

@funkinbeats I would say it was a big influence on me and I'm from Detroit.

[TheMygirls123]

back in the day bmx and gci house partys in BRIDGEPORT south side all those fine ass bridgeport women in da house looking good !!! dancing to these good ole house music early 80's

[Adjslife]

brings back such great memories, thx !!

[joecarr1326]

this was my favorite song at the club call the factory 1985 to 1989 was a great year...

[thethoughtcriminals]

This is not Italio Disco sound was of that direction Gary Numan took..Dark Cold and Futuritsic and bloody catchy...

[replicantplanet]

I never understand why people call this Italo Disco when these guys were English, this tune rocked the house when i was a young man back in the day. Love the production and those dark vocals.

[djmusicjac]

awesome, "my cup of tea"

[MrChicagomack]

Italo Disco.....Forever

[Wolcott36]

Thanks for posting up this video.... wow! This is straight up old school and classic in my eyes.... I might have only been 5 yrs old at the time but growing up in Pilsen (South Side of Chicago) with an older brother..... you automatically become aquainted with it! That is a given especially in Chicago where House music reigns!!!!!!! Once again thanks for posting this.... I may have commented prior on this video, but just want to show love from Chicago! House Music!!!!!!

[amamuffin]

yess

[libertyale]

First heard this at a club in Germany in 1985 and it blew my mind! I heard it again back in the USA played by DJ Frankski out of V103 Baltimore and went out to buy the vinyl the next day! Very influencial record...very ahead of it's time and every House/Electro DJ worth a dime had this in their collection. TIMELESS!

[replicantplanet]

@libertyale Thanks for you comment , TransDance had a mind of it's own from the moment i wrote it and i can't believe people still love it after all these years the GC1 version is my favorite Dark and Moody.. Cheers Mick :)

[domagius1969]

i 1st heard this 18.5 years ago in a small flat in streatham.

little did i realise how it & the bloke who nervously played it to me would change my life.

always in all ways. x

[replicantplanet]

@domagius1969 Cheers Dom for everything

[coledeluxe]

I use to and still listen to this religiously. Perfect. 

[replicantplanet]

@coledeluxe I hope that when you do listen to it that you have a  New Romantic outfit on? Thanks for you kind words and the years of listening to my vocalising as i was never a good singer ... Mick

[SirMillz]

Great song.. wow 1981? Thats insane.. way ahead of its time.

[mushyinside2]

Mick thank you for this song, you are a genuis brother. The first time I heard this song I was about 9 yrs old, This is one song you can play over and over and never gets old. THANK YOU MICK

[replicantplanet]

@mushyinside2 Your welcome fella, i'm humbled by your kind words :)

[silverbackalphamale]

Thanks Mick for this great and unforgettable song. This one is for the ages. Simply undeniable when played. i first heard this one in 1985-1986. It was a jam then and it is still a jam now. Thanks again Mick.

[replicantplanet]

[larryj67]

This used to be the S- - T ! at O'Dells in Baltimore in the late 80's

[ZachyZach69]

Frank ski was a dj then right?

[1bmoreparty]

Yea but not at O'dells...i know Dave Rags used to do fresh fridays at O'dells...i remember how they would pick people out the line and tell them they could'nt come in...LMAO...the old saying was..."O'dells...you'll know if you belong"

[1bmoreparty]

YES SIR...its an all time house classic!!

Baltimore Stand up!!

[BabyCaponez]

[libertyale]

First heard Trancedance while in Germany at a club in 1986....I was 16....thought it was the hottest thing I'd ever heard. Then in 1988 I heard it played on a mix show out of Baltimore (V103) and I almost drove the car off the road. Called the station...where can I buy this record??? CLASSIC track!

[ENOBLES3686]

as a youngster in the 80's i remember listening to this song on wbmx,gci, kkc reccording it on the tonemasters back in the day

[Wolcott36]

I feel you 100%..... Im 31 and my older bro is gonna hit 39 or 40. (Lol... funny how we forget after so many years huh?) Anyway...... I use to record shit for him when I was like 8 and he was 16 just starting to go out..... I use to record many, upon many WBMX mixes...... wow.... that was the shit!!!!! Wish i could be that young again with no worries.... now its a diifferent story!!!!!

[USBP464]

I remember when that thumpin break used to come on and you knew immediately what it was. Just clasic. Since I was underage at the time and on the Westside me and my buddies hung out at Da Vinci Manor on North Ave and Central or took the train down to the Playground on 19th and State.

[Discfiend69]

[bubbz0018]

SOUTHSIDE BOOGIE(Taylor & Laflin) Chi-Town House Music back in the early 80's was the BOMB! Brings back memories to the HOUSE PARTIES(in peoples homes), block parties and all of the high school dances (BENITO JUAREZ, CURIE, RICHARDS-in Bridgeport, Cathedral, Trinity)among others,that jammed your song "Transdance" along with (RIS, MY MINE, BOSTITCH, BOBBY O, THE FLIRTS, GINO SOCCIO, DIVINE, FUN FUN, RONNIE GRIFFITH and etc...)! STILL LOVE THESE SONGS TODAY and so does the younger generations.

[tangoseven2]

[SpaDiva68]

You would not believe how people still loose their "freakin" minds when this is played in Chicago.

[Wolcott36]

@SpaDiva68  You got that right.... Chicago loves "House Music"

[greedygretch]

@SpaDiva68 you ain't neva lied! CUz I'm one of them! House forever baby!

[hypercatjohn]

*bows down to you*

[acidhouse1988]

Without them second hand record shops loads of people would be getting ripped off by the likes of HTFR !

[hypercatjohn]

[USBP464]

Dude, if you wrote this you are a genius. That bassline will remain in my memory forever. Well done!!!!

[Jarren202]

@Replicant001 Nice one mate, I bought one of the Co-Pilot 12's last year. Well worth it, even that re-issue is sought after now!

Tell me, wasn't there a connection in the personnel of this tune to Visage?

[goodfellaus]

i mixed the hell out of this song in chicago during the early 80s one of my all time house classics,but i like the other side better!!!!!!!!!

[chicagoboy312]

1983 K-Town Chicago - 26th & Kedvale. Chicago's all about the music, downtown, the lake, Chickie's Beef & Home Run Inn. Forget all that dead-end gang shit!

[greedygretch]

All right, c/o 87' CVS!! Cavalier Love!!! I knew a girl name Shawnda S. who went to Lindblom. Yeah, I found Highnoon on Here but it totaly sound different. I was also looking for Goldie, Believe. It is hard to find the old stuff now. Gramaphone on Clark Street use to sell a lot of stuff like that. I use to pester Mark Farina to play this at the Smart Bar many moons ago. I was not even old enough to be in the club....i'm going to jail!

[XOLOTLdaTOLTEK]
