Why I like the 80's.

A while ago, around about february this year, a friend of mine put on a mix, a valentine's mix, not a trashy compilation of pathetic love songs though, a funky and soulful collection of love related numbers. The mix had an 80's vibe to it, the mix was by Breakbot. Since then my ears have become more receptive to funky 80's vibes and since moving to Paris this has been helped by a few visits to the WAGG club. WAGG has rapidly become my favourite place to go in Paris, on a Saturday (I can't speak for other days) there is a great DJ, playing some great 80's tracks. Just as a little sidenote, if you are ever in Paris, go to WAGG, great staff, ambience and music make a great night. Anyway, there have been a couple tunes that are just rocking my world at the moment, very much within this "80's" sound, so I would like to share them with you. Big thanks to Breakbot for making the 80's cool again.

Heroine

Take the video as you will, that is not what i am especially interested in, but here are some chilled vibes courtesy of Wild Cookie, a collaboration between Red Astaire aka Freddie Cruger & Anthony Mills. I'm a big big fan of Freddie Cruger and this record is releasing on Tru-Thoughts, check it.
