I have a question for you guys.
It's kinda a " you have to know" question...really don't know if you can google it.
I'm hosting a party for my GF friends...they are mid 30s early 40s...I have the rock and pop down as far as tunes to play but I'd like to mix in some fat ass club music ...what would be some good..not poppy shit...dance tracks that they would like and recognize from when they were in the scene. These are cool people who clubbed pretty hard. Like 10-15 tracks tops. Maybe some rap.
That's a nice challenge. The first thing that pops-up in my mind is a balanced mix of eighties, electro and new wave stuff.
Here's a sample playlist:
1.fade to grey-visage
2.bizarre love triangle-new order
3.happy station-fun fun
4.sex crime-eurythmics
5.situation-yazoo
6.in the heat of the night-tapps
7.funky town-lipps inc
8.queen of burlesque-gazebo
9.passion-the flirts
10.sub culture-new order

12.don't go-yazoo
13.in the night-pet shop boys
14.walking on thin ice-yoko ono
15.tour de france-kraftwerk
16.don't stop-digital emotion
