From Rivera's Groove Box #283: Taxi C.A.B. - Chunk-A-Nova (Red Dog Mix)

Classic Chicago house track made by Adam 'DJ Chunk-A-Bud' Maljan. Originally released in 1994. This funky disco track is a timeless dance floor classic. It uses very effectively the drumloop and vocals from Jackie Moore's 'This Time Baby' and the musical elements of Wood Brass & Steel 'Funkanova'. The production is very minimal with rough sampling, but it's all done in a way which makes the track stand out, and giving it a unique lo-fi aesthetic. Detroit came out with their own version of this track, made by Terrence Parker in 1996 - 'Love's Got Me High'. It's basically the same track, but it features an additional bassline and new vocals. Both are great tracks! I like Chunk-A-Nova a little bit more, because DJ Chunk-A-Bud didn't do a lot of tracks, and it is his most memorable, while from Terrence Parker's discography I can choose a lot other classics. I also read that Adam 'DJ Chunk-A-Bud' Maljan has sadly passed away in 2016. 

From Rivera's Groove Box #282: Luca Lozano - Ibiza Bullshit Necklace

Sometimes I stumble oddly on some popular EDM music videos, and I can barely watch those for a few seconds. I find the music to be extremly loud, dumb, obnoxious... and the videos offensive with their showing of gross-out partying. But when I say to people who have no clue, that I'm into 'electronic dance music - you know, the underground stuff'... they surely must think of me being one of those EDM junkies?! Yuck... and yeah I wouldn't give a damn, but it's always so awkward trying to explain... anyway here's an modern underground house track with some classic hints!
