Reply With QuoteI totally agree...the whole album is smoking.
Plus the tracks were mixed by pre-Madonna fame JOHN "JELLYBEAN" BENITEZ.
Love it !!

Ive had this album and havent played it for a while, but played it again tongiht.
Mantus - Midnight Energy.
I forgot how great this is!
If you dont have this album, you are missing out on some ass-kicking awesome disco music. Every song on this record MAKES YOU DANCE!
Ive got to look for more of their stuff.

Mantus is a band that is rarely mentioned here and that's a shame coz', although they didn't release that much, the albums are genuine classics. Original, danceable, enjoyable da maxx!
Enjoy thezz , and play 'emLOUD

I only knew and remember "Boogie to the bop", which is the second "clip" here (BTW Johan that's a great idea to post songs on YouTube!)
I liked that song then, now it struck me as a "rap" version of Michael Jackson's "Don't stop til you get enough", a masked version, that is (like "Another one bites the dust" is to "Good times").
Will look for the album.
It don't mean a thing (if ain't got that swing)

The extended version of "Boogie to the Bop" tops them all
and the brass part sounds much like MJ's "Don't stop 'til you get enough"
I luv this track. I recall Bernie having contacts with Mantus a while ago.
If you buy this record your life, will be better.
