Title: THAT glorious 80s dance music thread?
Post by: Barry Scott on Thursday, April 3, 2014, 11:01:07
I was just listening to some amazing 80s music earlier when I decided to dredge up the thread on here that was full of old 80s dance.

I know the last page started to lose the message a bit and was getting "cool" but can anyone find it?

I know Bangkok had major contributions, I expect Sippo and his mullet did and I'm sure I contributed some earth moving music, but I can't find it.

Anyone?

Cheers Reg. I found that, but that certainly doesn't seem like it.

I'm thinking maybe it was a 90s thread. It was possibly the greatest music thread the TEF has ever seen, so someone must have linked to it from their Geocities account.

 :toocool: I knew you'd know it. I think you might've even started it. Trouble is Google's bringing up nothing and even our own now working search is coming up empty.

I was forced to go and see Soul II Soul in a Hammersmith nightclub in the late 80's. As I was into thrash metal at the time, it was a painful experience.

That thread was brilliant. Must remember to sort out a Spotify playlist or something.

Although most of the Youtube links are now dead, so I haven't got a clue what some of them were.

Start again...

Reading old threads is weird. So many deleted accounts.

Fuck yes, that was the thread. I think that's the only "post a youtube music video" thread, where people actually watched/listened to the videos others were posting. It was an epic [I hate that word, but for once it's justified] thread.

And that children is a lesson in why you should name your videos.

Don't say I never do anything for you Bazza.

Every song (almost, off topic stuff excepted) even the dead links.

How can I find/subscribe to that in Spotify itself?

Does it not automatically go in your spotify playlists if you follow it?


Title: Re: THAT glorious 80s dance music thread?
Post by: LucienSanchez on Thursday, April 3, 2014, 19:39:45
Yeah... if I can find it!

Just follow it from the link above and it should go in to your playlists in your full spotify.

Spotify doesn't seem to work here.

Have been going through THAT thread trough. I think it's even better now than when we first made it, albeit it with the missing tunes. I've been trying to pick a favourite, it's just impossible.

someone needs to make one of these threads tonight.

We could try but classic threads are usually impromtu efforts.

We should make an effort though, if somebody wants to get the ball rolling.

Might have been written earlier but it was released in 1983.

Yeah. My sister had the record about then. I was into metal and early goth at the time  :)

Thanks again for this Samdy.

Got a road trip up north tomorrow and decided I didn't fancy hours of my usual shit. This has formed the basis of a dirty 80s/90s playlist for my trip.
