    Since you like Chic, try a song by Kano called "You Can't Hold Back." When I said I liked Chic somebody reccomended me that track and I really like.

    I got a 1981-ish vibe from your list....so what about...


    "On The Beat" - BB&Q Band or
    "Watch Out" - Brandi Wells ?

    Very funky bass & smooth grooved R&B.
    "Lost inside adorable illusion...."
