Will Downing is more of a crooner these days, but on the Arthur Baker-led Wally Jump Jr and the Criminal Element project he was giving it some: Love this one - did it pick up many plays at the time?

Mickey Finn Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 This seems to follow the previous tune ... Chili Funk was a great label for soulful dance music and there's a lot to be rediscovered there, including this from Eastwest Connection, doing a very atmospheric version of a dancefloor filler.

Mickey Finn Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hip house, anyone? As a genre it didn't really last but it contains a few gems, such as this obscurity from Danny Tenaglia as Deep State II. I only ever heard Norman Jay play it, although it also turns up on a mix cd by Bill Brewster. Made at a time when that First Choice "Double crossed" sample seemed to be everywhere: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mickey Finn Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Back to 1988 for this poppy obscurity. Italo house meets Afro? Club House had 2 hits that I can remember, both mashups. First was Steely Dan's Do it Again with MJ's Billie Jean, but this caught my ears for the use of Mory Kante's Yeke Yeke: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
