Description
This week’s mix dives deep into hip-house territory. We kick things off with a blend of two distinct 12-inch versions of “Pump Up The Jam” : the European and American mixes, spiced up with a sample from the track that inspired it all: “The Acid Life” by Farley Jackmaster Funk.
Next up is another massive Belgian club hit from 1989/1990: Petra & Co’s “Just Let Go.” There’s even a Flemish version, so I had some fun weaving together the English, Flemish, and dub mixes.
The journey continues with acid and hip house-influenced pop from Debbie Gibson, Lisa Stansfield, and D-Mob, along with some classic Italo house courtesy of the 49ers. You’ll also hear a dose of late-’80s/early-house sounds from The Adventures of Stevie V, Funky Worm, and Off-Shore.
We close out the set with a track that bridges eras, a synth-pop gem by the German band Red Flag, remixed by Danny Tenaglia, channeling early ’80s vibes with a ’90s twist, followed by standout cuts from Jimi Somerville and Madonna.
