    Most dated house track

    I was briefly listening to Mac Thornhill's "Whose Gonna Ease The Pressure of my heart" from 1987 and it is a definete contender for the most dated house track ever. I know a lot of 80s house music haven't aged that well but the fact that this even became a hit and was included in lots of megamixes back then is beyond me :lol:

    during the past couple of years the music biz has been all about revivals....disco house, nu classic soul, electroclash - u name 'em.
    I honestly can't see these badly programmed stylings of Mac Thornhill ever returning....or am i wrong?

    Anyone listened to Technotronic lately???? "Pump Up The Jam" and "Move This", anyone???? :oops: :oops: :oops:

    This was about when I first noticed the "new music" had, to quote Lorenz Hart-- "the faint odor of perfoming seals". It was all downhill from there. :P :evil: :P :evil:

    LOL yeah - these may be dated too (farley aside - that's timeless 8) )
    But at least they were programmed in a way that made sense and you could dance to....that's more than you can say about Mac Thornhill :lol:

    Technotronic are still on the radio sometimes over here actually! I tend to switch stations when it happens!

    'Looking For a lover' by Taurus Boyz from '87 is a house track that at the time was considered 'hip n happening' but now also has that 'performing seals' feel about it! :-?
