Mr Fingers - Can You Feel It (original Instrumental)

[Petitloup1]

Beautiful comments ppl. House music all night long

[TheFdpricejr]

Thumbs up if Grand Theft Auto San Andreas brought you here

[triaxiom]

Doesn't matter how you got here, just as long as you feel it.. but, Jack sent me, said some thing something about having a groove.

[12mankina]

one o me all time faves... beautiful...

[gesuprayer]

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas sent me.

[21Pogon]

The background theme after 0:20 makes me think about the beauty of the person i love, but i really see myself driving on the highway at night and having this music playing in the car on a medium volume. Amazing track though, it's my 15th time today listening to it. Not counting every other day ;)

[KingKonway92]

robyn? you f***ing kidding me?

[wooders1000]

This is night music - pure and simple. Music of the night. To be played in Dark clubs on systems where the bass blows your chest. ... and when you climb into bed at 8:00am the following day and shut your eyes you can still hear it banging in your head and you think "fuck how am i going to face work again tomorrow".

[FaDeqs]

@wooders1000 ow yeah ;)

[LittleBabyBum]

this tune (25 years old at time of writing this comment) sounds less dated than others released 5 years ago. Deep, warm, sexy, magical, ethereal, great bassline...I could go on and on and on about how much I love this tune and how much I've always loved it. My love for this tune has lasted *much* longer than any of my affections for any lovers (true!)

[seanshine69]

@LittleBabyBum

actually first released in 1986! i hope you find the right person to enjoy it with! ;)

[AlessandroVivenzio]

NO. IT WAS THE BIRTH OF THE DEEP HOUSE. I'M ALWAYS PLAYNG IT. deejayaleph

[SulaziTV]

Favorite All-Time house song ever! Never knew the name or artist THANKS for the post!!! YouTube is "AWESOME"!!!! FYI That is NOT Martin Luther King people, they just borrowed that style of speech for the song. M.L.K was not housin' it up like that! : ) LMAO

[PS3Gameplay970]

spectrum 89 amazing.didnt knou what the fuck was happening.still dont ..sweet

[strictlyrythym69]

goosebumps!!!my all time favourite number 1 tune.so uplifting.remember hearing this as we went back into the zap after going out for a smoke in the car.my mate looked at me and we just grinned at each other!its true,house is a feeling.

[Killerdillerboy]

Dreaming my way back to the Chicago House days back then whwn listening to Mr.Fingers...Amazing track and one of my big Fav's of all time in House music (all night long) F****** GREAT!!

[GeoAl09]

the birth of house music.

[snaxx101]

timeless this does something to my soul everytime i hear it i remember the first time i heard this on the wgci back in 88 i been hooked every since!!

[deeder2000]

Yes, it still sounds so incredibly fresh and has just got to be the best House track of all time! I remember hearing this after being half-asleep in some dark and dingy illegal club and getting straight back into it - at 7 am! Now there aren't that many records that'd make you feel like that!

[SpockDon]

Mr. Fingers - Washing Maschine

[42tehfloor]

Thank you for the version without MLK etc. I remember the first time I heard this it sounded too simplistic but upon hearing it again I realized it was the most emotional music I ever heard. It's impossible not to hear that now when listening but does anyone else remember having that revelation? Larry Heard brings life out of machines.

[Phume303]

I like all the versions of this, but this is my favourite - it lets the music do the talking.

what a beautiful, timeless tune. Electronic Soul classic - thanks for up load : )

[germanlorx]

iluvitsomuch

[germanlorx]

Mr. Fingers - Washing Maschine ;) thats my own world ;) iluvitsomuch

[framajakob]

cool

[AreULookingAtMe]

Literally: house music doesn't get better than this track. Unlike many other (classic) tracks from around this time it still sounds so fresh. I will be buried with this tune on vinyl next to me...give something for the archaeologists to scratch their heads about in 2000 years time if nothing else :)

[Petitloup1]

@AreULookingAtMe Amen

[Haseo6422]

Take my advice. Just sit back, relax and let the music take over and enjoy it.

[gilinnc]

Damn, I remember this track back in da days @ the Red Zone w/DJ David Morales,Sound Factory w/Junior Vazquez,Octagon w/Roger S. in NY.

[Sylvie559]

Robyn has great tastes, thanks!!!! i love finding new house musik!!!!!

[tbo452]

Who is Robyn? :)

Anyways, she said that this and TLC is > than the Spice Girls. :)

She will be happy to let you know what is real music also. :)

[spacemannorbear]

I heard this track - knowingly - for the first time on BBC Radio 6 a couple of months ago. I don't know if I remember it from the time when it was first released, but as it played the DJs were discussing visiting Chicago (where I've never been, though I've been to the States a lot), and I just got that dance music feeling, which is like a buzzing under the skin, a creamy vanilla kind of audible taste, a feel-good kind of vibe which would-be feel good music cannot deliver. a wonderful classic...

[FROMSPAINWECAME]

Ladies and gentlemen, this IS the raw , pure essence of house music.... HOUSE NATION FOREVER!!! :)

[sugasashamama]

Yes i can feel it, thank you Robyn! :^)

[Nightbird87]

This is really great background music in general but especially for doing homework...I wish there was a loop button!

[jjflyme]

it'a alright

[jjflyme]

it's just alright

[CodeXero]

ROBYN LOVES THIS !

[ScyreMoon]

.... Lifts my feet right off the ground : D

[CarmenTerror]

Chicago House

[vnesofsc]

Konichiwa!

[Nightbird87]

Fun! As the people before me, Robyn brought me here. Love when it picks up at 0:29

[osbaldete]

Robyn sent me here too!!! jajajaja love it

[The31415927]

Great old synth but nowhere near the impact of Herbie Hancock - Rockit.

[The31415927]

Robyn will be here until Monday. Hi TWITS!

[SwedenJB]

[SebastianDiva]

[greygoosegotme]

It bring tears to my eyes when i hear great muziq like this. I love House Muziq, made me wanna be a dj. Thanks to two family members, K. ALEXI & MR.LEE for introducing me to the world of House Muziq and the muziq world. HOUSE IS MY LIFE!!!

[zkmap]

Chill out rooms have never been the same since then.

[soakgameLLC]

S::G

[jonboyps3]

One of only a few instrumental mixes,that actually sound better than the vocal version! Chicago Trax-pure class!

[Genevaave]

There arent many, but this is one of them

[19Osiris71]

To hear this is a truly holy experience.

[shuftsy]

you just had to be there.

[ceasar1216]

"Can you feel it"is one of those tracks that takes you on a journey. It inspired me a great deal musically.I fell in love with house music when i first heard this record. Thank you Fingers.

[TheSausage1975]

Always loved this tune. Heard it when I was about 12 for the first time and have loved it ever since.

[99jerseyboy]

I still float when I hear this. It touches my soul deeper than anything else. EPIC.

[robant86]

timeless

[pontello3]

early house rueles!

[Marcio37A]

Massa esta musica dos anos 80, vc viaja nela so em ouvi-la...

[iaminfoian]

It was this record - I heard it on a pirate radio station in London in about '86 and soon after i, like loads of people!, was going on an adventure.........ah i loved them days and this tune!!!!!!

[MrResto111]

thank fuck for FINGERS.

[MrResto111]

thank fuck for FINGERS

[pmnaz9]

The instrumental version was the original release, and the best IMO. Pure, hypnotic, Chicago house classic! Thanks for posting it!

[buggeazy102]

i use to love to do the biz mark off this track swing my arms from side to side woooo!

[lamontoify]

sweet song!

[Elotium]

Still sounds new after almost 25 years. LONG LIVE HOUSE!

[itsPHEN0M]

[lammylama]

gotta be one of my all time favs ....EVER......i love this tune so much it brings tears to my eyes!!!

[scottishstrawberry]

I can rush without Es..Thank you Mr Fingers..Im 39 now and have listened to your beats for20 years....Thank God 4 u!!!xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[rydimryderd]

This is a supremely killer track. Heard The Seventh Clones remix of this on the B-side in a sick new mix by Santiago Salazar, which then set me on the hunt. Glad I found the original, though I must say the remix is KILLER. Unfortunately there's no preview anywhere save for a short snippet on Juno. Long live the old school!

[wordslouderthanbombs]

Cheers for Putting up the Instrumental, As much as i care for MLK, sometimes you just want those Thick, Silky Chords.

[GeoAl09]

i love this :)

[jsims85]

head bobs

[Blackadder75]

great, I just discovered a version of this track with lyrics a week ago, and thought, nice I love this, only I wish I could find a way to remove the words... And behold: It already exists as an original!

[tasmeen81]

My favorite all time tune. I used go to sleep with blasting in my ear.. Love it!!!

[SingleEIN]

TOE-TAPPINGLY-SENSATIONAL!!! =-D shiendendendelleledelen den, (the beat)

[tillyferrari]

Thanks again Rob :) Hope to hear from you soon :)

[fraybentos666]

man this tune is so lean. floods my reminisce bank with some serious feeling.

[Nouthje]

Its way before my time but I really love this...timeless music....great shit...

[edredd701]

I was in high school (morgan Park) when this came out in '87 or '88...classic trak

[ZachyZach69]

@edredd701 alot of these tracks were test press state for a moment, i remember hearing this in 84-85

[umkid]

The ultimate groundbreaking house track, larry heard was the man

[ZachyZach69]

@umkid you mean still is the man

[umkid]

@ZachyZach69 Thankyou for reminding me IS MOST CERTAINLY THE MAN, PEACE.

[preddietor]

this track is was groundbreaking but without the vocal not the cheesy one the one that explains about house being a feeling its just not as strong.iam you see iam the creator and this is my house and in my house there is only house music now some of you might wonder who is jack and what is that jack does?jack is the one who gives you the power to rock your body jack is the one who gives you the power to do the snake jack is the one who gives you the key to the wiggilie worm.etc xtc etc

[EvilRage1]

i think ive just wet my pants my fav house tune smooth as a babies bum ;p

[loraemon]

REAL

[rdscrpn1031]

I was always House to this song Im glad it was my time when This song came out. CLUBKINGS BKLYN NY. PARKSLOPE BROOKLYN

[SpockDon]

One of the most important records in the last 30 years

[Polyfusia]

@SpockDon This song and Flow Coma by 808 State were both lightyears ahead of the now dated sounding house and acid house around at the time. Ammnesia by Mr. Fingers is a seminal record.

[rydimryderd]

@Polyfusia Personally, I think this still sounds pretty fresh.

[Polyfusia]

@rydimryderd Agreed.

[cromag89]

@SpockDon absolutly!!!!..couldnt agree with you more and although missed by sooo many...this song puts me in a relaxed,calm mode,great track for long distance driving as well as some serious freestyle moves,saw a dude at a club about 15 yrs ago house the shit out of this song,made the whole dance floor stop and watch,he new every rythem and break in this song lol! i still remember that shit.

[dilla71]

@SpockDon I completely agree. I had the pleasure of playing this song live on tour with Larry Heard.

[richard29415]

@SpockDon Yeah

[ThEkAtEsTrEeT]

this is the real can you fell it song?

[gspin25]

Brings back fond memories of my time @ Howard University

[twaz9]

I felt good at night on the freeway

Best house track ever! 4ever!

[TheOddant]

when im listening to that i feel as if i was taking drugs, so the fact of taking drugs is not usefull in that condition, music is life peace

[ciarTDSsoITis]

been in some wierd places in some seriously loved up / messy states with this tune as a soundtrack lol. timeless classic

[blackgoddess2u]

I have been looking for this song forever!!!

[marsleviathan]

A True Gem.

[Vertsk8er419]

Check out Laricheard by AFX, clever song title, I know. It's a cover of this classic and it does it good justice.

[ZachyZach69]

I found sealed copies of this song in houston tx at a pawn shop and bought them all

[buggeazy102]

this was the first song that made me take house tracks sirouse back in the day

[davidvassie]

THE record!.....it's the cymbals!!!....they are just astonishing....no one has ever put cymbals like that on a record....they couldn't....you would of just thought of this.....this is the only house track I still listen to regularly...

[ZachyZach69]

i need to send u my collection and u would add to ur regular listening, come on fellow house head u cant talk like that u will ruin the house connection lol

[davidvassie]

Nah, s'ok ZachyZach....I've got this and a few thousand other vinyl delights, but thanks for the offer.....and it won't ruin the house connection mon amis.....there are still plenty of beautiful house records out there....just none as beautiful as this one... :)

[shine4fairies]

the sexiest house track ever made.

[cth213]

ahhhhhh...the original and THE BEST BY A MILE!....still gives me goosebumps after all these years!.

[smallz2k]

Ahhh the original without the Jacks house thrown over it Deep House at its best! thnx good upload.

[SuperIamtheone]

Classic !!

[tharaven666]

I almost forgot WKKC (89.3) and DJ Pinkhouse. Man THOSE WERE THE DAYS!!!!

[tharaven666]

Born and raised in Chicago, I remember this song as if it came out yesterday. WBMX on Friday nights with Bad Boy Bill (Before he became who he is today or even B96), Scott Seals even the great Frankie Knuckles all were WBMX before it became V103 (102.7FM). I relocated to Denver 2 years ago and I can tell you know that housemusic (Deephouse) will forever be in my soul. If you've never been to the original wearhouse then you missed out on the housemusic elite DJ's and people. Damn the memories :)

[methamotional3]

class

[53xdj]

House music rule

[TMCR281]

dope! nuff sed..

[GeoAl09]

i love this song and im only 18, i wasnt even born or alive when the beginning of house music was happening in chicago. makes me proud to be a chicagoen. :D

[fagAshLil1234]

wicked, I'm 21 and wasn't alive when this song came out either, lucky u being a Chi dude I'm not even close, not even an American I'm a Brit lol. House rulz

[HunterSaMp]

GTA SAN ANDREAS FOREVER!

[xXRedyzXx]

Well I guess I must agree with that comment since it's that game that made me discover the Eternal Love of house

[twostepsbackwards]

the old vinyl lives on! what a tune

[jax007]

greatest dance track of all time

[DjTonyMundaca]

agreed

[djjuanitomx]

I love this track... it is so deeeeeep! Definetly better than the vocal or the remixes.

I never heard it @ club at its time because my age but I could give almost anything for travel the past and dance for a whole night with this music.

[bestbass42]

Those were the days mate,3-4 car loads of us,all in shirts,ties and jackets-you couldnt get in a club without them in those days!!! And usually that was the only club in whatever town we went to so it was always rammed full,not like today where every wine bars open till after 2am and most towns have several clubs where you can get in with jeans and t-shirt on cuz they need the money and need to fill them......Best house tune ever this is!!!!

[do1wo1]

fuckin too right , im well chilled out . im off me nut ,,,,,,yup ,,,,,,,,fuck the recession ,,,,,,i,d listen ta this tune all night.

[bestbass42]

Well said geaza!!!!..Sounds like you had some good lil' ones last night!!!

[sleestack808]

try to go to an aphex twin dj set

[Kj16V]

I wanna give you two "thumbs -ups" . One for each statement you made!

I've never managed to find a clubbing experience that even comes close to what those original acid house nights must have been like :(

[bestbass42]

We used to go to night clubs all over the UK to listen to this stuff 1986-1988,suits,shirts and ties,those were the days!!!! Great sound on this upload and nice one for not putting that awefull vocal version on!!! Fans of this should also check out VIRGO 'R U Hot Enough' also from 1986/87,there is an upload on youtube. NICE ONE.

[jjmm112]

Take`s me back- good time`s, 5*/ fav.

[Ballin341]

who cares

great beat !!!!!!!

[LaceG4life]

This song was not released in 2002. It was probably re-released in 2002. It came out in 85-86

[DrZEUS101010]

for some reason finding the original instrumental is very hard....good post!

[RitmoXL]

anyone know where i can buy this mp3? Ive been searching and cant find it anywhere to buy as an mp3?! not even itunes

[latinchic02]

i just bought it off itunes, it is there. type in "can you feel it" and its under Mr. Fingers, Chicago Trax Vol. 1. Dance category.

[RitmoXL]

no no, i meant the instrumental. finding the regular track is easy.

i found the instrumental already, a bit frustrating, but i dug it up...

[Drinalin]

....saying where YOU found it whould be helpfull

[otyroo2]

this songs on gta san andreas XD but non-instrumental version

[shazandju]

Precinct 13 or the Hac in Manchester

[ohfo]

That takes me right back!

[grako76]

sweet baby jesus!!!!!

they dont make them like this anymore!!!!

reminds me of "come down sunday" when all you did was chew the shit out of your face and smoke copious amouts of green!!!!!

[grimegarage09isplop]

fantastic again robski...keep up the good work. you da man

[SpockDon]

One of the most influential tracks of all time

[discomixxkidd]

sending shivers down my spine

[ZachyZach69]

Age less song, man i love chicago house and miss it a great deal! Time to pull the records and turntables back out! CAN YOU FEEL IT?

[assigassi]

Cool, Geile Zeit,die 80er. Danke fürs Uppen!!!!

[deetrain23]

back in the day, they played this song on WJZZ IN DETROIT 105.9

CAN U FEEL IT!

[AreULookingAtMe]

I still find it amazing that this tune came out (originally) in 1986. One of my all time favourites, regardless of genre. thanks for posting

[schippermeister]

endless

[tai3408]

Hello, could you post a link for download this song please? thanks you.

[dxcheBagFace]

I really like this,.

[kaine180]

gives me shivers every time

[Freecell5671]

I think people get WAY to carried away with a lot of dance music stuff. Give anything by Deadmau5, Fedde Le Grande, or even some of the classics like Santiono Echols, or Larry Heard a 5 just for doing something.

However, Can U Feel It? Is not in that category. This is a 5/5. A masterpiece, and in my book, the 2 greatest and most influencial Electronic music song after Phuture's 'Acid Trax'. 'Move Your Body', 'Good Life' and 'Big Fun' are classics as well (As well as countless others.)

[mrdeedz1]

this track takes me back to high school freshman year 1986. 1986, to me, was the pinnacle year for house music. just my opinion.

[aaronspayd]

This is nice, but I like the slower version a lot better.

[rathcooleposse]

Hear hear. Timeless.

[hotfriday]

This is the mount everest of house music. This track represents everything what house music is. It is pure glory. Pure emotion. Pure love. The house genre had nice tracks in the last 20 years. But this is just the masterpiece. Belongs to the best dance tracks ever. I was 19 when I heard this the first time and I am aware I have a nostalgic view by writing this comment. But I remember so well telling my friend "damn, what a track". And we danced to dreamland. And so many years later: I love it !

[tibsyboy]

You fuckin old queer

man wanna get locked on sum niche!

If i cum ur gaff to chill wid ya son or summet u wud send me west speakin like tht.

Ha stonnedd straight out the manchester manner !

[josh6194]

[abhcvn72]

An all time classic!

[lindy257]

[LlLJAMIE]

Brilliant tune, absolutely brilliant. How much did this cost you?

[Drinalin]

[mushmanbill]
