I am sitting here with a glass of wine thinking back when i first heard this , Its great being 41 but it was an adventure at 18. Thank you for this track reminds me of the days when i swore i would not be in the rat race.
shit this track is dope as it was then..... i jammed this on the box all thu summer of 1987... got beaten up by heavy metal fozzy mulliet haired arseholes... for wearing a smiley t-shirt
@rudyprotrudy08 true. got this in '87 on cooltempo here in UK but was still breakdancing n poppin on a bit of lino outside sainsburys down local high st.
didn't learn big box smll box til '88 and I was 16 and able to blag it into Spectrum at the London fitness club,
feels like another life nowdays but would give one of my testicles for just one more night back there, or Energy, sunrise, ibiza '89 god what a life we all had man!!!
Detroit 1987. 17 dancing at the Music Institute. I had 2 cousins, one from Chicago and one from NYC. We used to argue about which city had the best house music.
I was sixteen and my mate brought this round my house on 12" vinyl, and i put it on in the front room with the windows open and went and sat on my front wall with him and waited for it to start... when it did it totally blew me away, i had shivers down my spine it was so different, i went back in and cranked up the record player and put it on as i wanted everyone to hear it! (got a slap round the head from my elder brother) lol.
Kids, take yakacm's advice n don't rush to grow up it aint all that
el classico, marshall jefferson,ma foom bey etc. bring em bak. late 80,s. talk bout good times. rayzels in bletchley. outer limits with the man lil louis vega
@Kimberley28marie now you're talking, Outer Limits kicking out at 2 all hot and sweaty and continuing partying at the train station waiting for the Milk Train back to MK!
vividly remember the first time i heard this... stopped me in my tracks i tell ya. then trying to buy it, not even knowing the title but got it in the end by singing the piano break. cassetted it and nearly shook the windscreen out. happy days.
No mobile phone, no email, no internet it seems like a diffrent age, but only a heart beat ago. any kids reading this enjoy your youth as it passes so quickly, and I don't mean that it a sad kinda way, just enjoy it before life takes over and you'll have some cool memories to keep you warm when life starts getting real. Cool tune BTW, check out airport 89, uh-uh ooh ooh look out, everything starts with an E, bring forth the guilotine, it's just the sun rising. The State L'pool 1988-91, The Quad.
Very wise words indeed Yakacm! It seems that for some of us them days of early house,our experience of 'The Second Summer of love' brought us a widom the some of the hippys found 20 years previous to our generation. The youth of today have so much distration in this materialistic world of information,a world full of either hype or hate spreading. Mainstream music is now awful, but there is always the Underground scene simmering somewhere ready for a next generation to fly,(due now soon?) : )
Virtual hug back @ you, this is mad but I can remember nearly throwing up with exicitment b4 going out. The artists making the tunes were annoynous as were the DJ's, and everyone in the rave were the stars, u used to go out with a crowd of ppl and maybe not see them for 2 hours as you went on a voyage around the gaff, gurning and hugging ppl u had never met b4, something if u had tried b4 rave came in would have got u a stay in intensive care.
Gosh yes! The nights out had that excitment and feel, mini bus booked or a few cars full, traveling to clubs having the best night of your life everytime you went, Yeah them hours losing your friends for ages but find friends in strangers, I hugged many many people even gansters, lol.
Torn between telling your whole life to a stranger and the beat summoning you back to the floor, and the mad clothes with hippy styling to them.
A few special pure years of great music,innocence and experience.
@billygonbarmy I wasn't talking specifically about this kind of music - rather a new genre or new branch of an existing genre comes out of the blue and kicks you in the arse in times of lame music like we have had for what seems like an age now. xx

My god this is wierd, I was just listening to a few old skool house tunes on You Tube and thought I just gotta here Lets Get Brutal coz it reminds me of my Mk5 Cortina outside McDonalds in Sutton High St, South West London, UK...seems I'm not the only one! This tune in the BOMB!
I was on the bus going to college and heard this on pirate radio..... LWR.... I quickly thought I gotta have this, it's more important than education !! Got off the bus and back to my local record shop, bought it, went home and listened to it all day.... memories !
This is the perfect statement for this tune -0 - what an education... I used to be ON the bus to college playing this on ma Sony Walkman of the day - and sometimes not going to class at all... /// moments in time ;) >>
Yep ... it really is "brutal".... listen carefully at 1.52 ~ with the "Br" stutters. Can remember exactly where I was when I first heard this... went out & bought it the next day. Man, that bass is fukkin somethin eh? !! Over 20yrs old and still the biz. Timeless.
Always thought it was "groove with the millimetres" originally got this at the beginning of 1987 when it scraped into the bottom of the UK charts was reissued a few months later and was a bigger hit.
I have this 12" on Cutting Records label. which was like 2 blocks from my house in NYC. There are some great mixes on it. Thanks for posting this song. Brings back lots of memories.
Oooh... totally agreed on the Iconic status that this track has - - I have a number of versions too on Cool Tempo, the grey one's... 9mins plus n that
For me this stood alongside 'Do It Properly' (2 P'rican's etc) as one of the most sophisticated House tunes of the time... certainly for the more discerning dancefloor without a doubt :) superb indeed!!
this sounds better in 2009 than in did in the late 80's...cos peeps now got all the fancy hifis and shit...so now we can truly appreciate how absolutely massive this tune is. Stack this alongside the current genre of dance music and its a no contest...a walkover.
Shit...imagine walking into a club today and this booms out of the system...straight into ya head and subconscious.
if you were part of making this music wat it is now and still lu it i found 2 dj's called MasterCutz and DJ Ranger who play all this good shit. They're on icecoldfm if youre online or if your in london its icecoldfm 103.0fm. i think theyre on sundays 10am-12.But it not just house.its all old school music.1 week mite b house the next week rnb & soul.its a great listen.these boys have some real classics and they have alot a tunes.definete good listen. Energy sunrise, biology, raindance all crew
Wow, talk abouy memory lane when the days were never ending and the sun shone long into the evenings, reminds me of when i was working on the fairground, i use to dance on the dodgems track, when ever there was a good house tune on, what goes around comes around, COME ON AND GET DOWN!!!!
I can relate to Libertyale except I don't know anyone who has heard of Nitro Deluxe! I bought this on 12" and still have it. Probably my first ever house single - awesome - "Grooving with the millimetre...." or whatever he says!
I also bought "The Jack That House Built" around the same time by Jack 'n' Chill and "House Arrest" by Krush. What great times the 80's were!
See to me this is the coolest thing about youtube, it brings so many people from all over the world together over one song. I knew maybe only one other person in my town that dug this track. House was my world in '87,88, and 89. Nobody can touch the ground-breaking records that came out then! This was one of them! Peace - Andy Z
Im totally with you there libertyale. I started getting into house music in 1986 when somebody gave me a Chicago House tape with allsorts on it, 'whats up rocky', 'jack your body', 'pleasure control' etc. Blew my mind. It was the music from that tape that got me into DJing in 1989. Ahh memories!
Shit... now I am gonna contradict myself. THIS is the B side US version on my disc. The best version is the A side megamix coz it has a different section before all this bit kicks in. Please post it matey! Luvvin SO much.
According to Billboard, "Let's Get Brutal" came out in 1987. It peaked at number 34 in March of that year. ........- I know only the Billboard from Butterfly & Whiteside from the Club 1987 (now OXA Dance Hall) @ CH-Zurich-Oerlikon! ^^
Cosign. We always thought it was "brutal with the melody". This was my first intro to house at 16 years by my dj best friend. We used to do a cool dance to it too... the girls loved it!
Cheers Aldhous...I actually fell out with a mate over this.....I'm sure he says,'Brutal with the Millimeter' I can't find the lyric anywhere on the internet to find out whether it definitely is that line???

I can relate to Libertyale except I don't know anyone who has heard of Nitro Deluxe! I bought this on 12" and still have it. Probably my first ever house single - awesome - "Grooving with the millimetre...." or whatever he says!
I also bought "The Jack That House Built" around the same time by Jack 'n' Chill and "House Arrest" by Krush. What great times the 80's were!

See to me this is the coolest thing about youtube, it brings so many people from all over the world together over one song. I knew maybe only one other person in my town that dug this track. House was my world in '87,88, and 89. Nobody can touch the ground-breaking records that came out then! This was one of them! Peace - Andy Z

Im totally with you there libertyale. I started getting into house music in 1986 when somebody gave me a Chicago House tape with allsorts on it, 'whats up rocky', 'jack your body', 'pleasure control' etc. Blew my mind. It was the music from that tape that got me into DJing in 1989. Ahh memories!

Shit... now I am gonna contradict myself. THIS is the B side US version on my disc. The best version is the A side megamix coz it has a different section before all this bit kicks in. Please post it matey! Luvvin SO much.

Cosign. We always thought it was "brutal with the melody". This was my first intro to house at 16 years by my dj best friend. We used to do a cool dance to it too... the girls loved it!
