Lennie De Ice – We Are i.e.
For some reason I haven’t yet posted any hardcore. Here’s one of the first crop of that peculiarly British genre, a turbo-foot dad dancing classic from one hit wonder Lennie De Ice. It has a bit of a reggae bassline, … Continue reading
Dad Tape: Tanith at Universe 1992
Most old rave tapes are best left in the dusty glove compartment of ancient history. You think ‘I used to love that tape of DJ Ratbag at the Eclipse’, and thanks to the wonder of the internet, you can now … Continue reading
Holy Noise – Get Down Everybody
Another dad dancing classic from the Benelux axis. It’s definitely on the cheesy side, and goes in the same pre-gabba bucket as Sperminator. I was actually quite disappointed when gabba sped up around 1993 cos I loved the sounds they … Continue reading
Dad Dancing: Acid House Rave 89
This demonstrates pretty much every conceivable variety of dad dancing. My personal favourite is the turbo foot dance that always seems to be perpetrated by blokes with bobs, but there are loads. So many freaky dancers busting total comedy moves. … Continue reading
GTO – Pure
GTO released some absolute belters, this being one. I’d put it in the same pigeonhole as Eon – UK rave music, but before the breakbeats had really kicked in – more like the Belgian post-New Beat sound. 1990 release on … Continue reading
Dad Dancing: Humanoid on Hitman and Her
The Hitman and Her was a cheap late night music show presented by Pete Waterman and Michaela Strachan. They would visit a nightclub and dancers would strut about with normal punters in the background, leading to the weird scenes you … Continue reading
Dad Dancing: N-Joi – Adrenalin on TOTP
One of the best rave basslines ever. Simple yet devastating. Check the dancer with the bouncing bob’s elaborate arms dance. That’s something you don’t see nowadays. It’s what really stands out from watching old rave clips. Blokes with long hair … Continue reading
Dad Dancing: KLF on Top Of The Pops
In 1990 pop music still had room for eccentric nutters larking about. Here’s Bill Drummond embarrassing himself pretending to play a keyboard on KLF’s What Time Is Love? – In the second clip, he’s wisely used all the money he … Continue reading
Dad Dancing: Keith Allen invades Happy Mondays
STOP PRESS: we have a dadcast we did for the baggy dads, get it right in your pod. Back to the clip…Impressive example of dad dancing from Keith Allen. He’s managed to actually wangle his way onto the stage to … Continue reading
Spectrum – Brasil (Remix)
Absolute belter of an R&S Record. The bit where the bassline drops after the rave stab breakdown is massive. I have it on the original vinyl of the 1991 Order To Dance compilation. There is something really special about the … Continue reading
