Someone pointed out a cool link for some classic house mixes circa '90-'91 today. Click here for the link.
Wow. What memories. It was right after college for me and the beginnings of my own club kid days in DC. I remember going to Tracks Nightclub on a regular basis -- sometimes even 3 - 4 nights a week! Thursday was the 'alternative' night that catered to the Goth / Industrial crowd. Friday was the 'mixed' night where there straight boys crept out of their closets for a night. Saturday was full on hi-nrg. Sunday was the house night aka the 'black' night. That places was so massive with 3 dancefloors, one of which was on the outdoor patio right beside the full sized volleyball court, bleachers, and sand! Growing up and coming out to a place like that definitely got me spoiled in the sense of going and clubbing. Aside from the New York super clubs, there was nothing like it around. Us DC children We were definitely spoiled!
The website I noted above has full sets from Junior Vasquez and Frankie Knuckles at The Sound Factory in New York. I was unfortunately not lucky enough to ever visit in its hey day.
