The time has come for yet another Flashback! Party Sequence and judging by the reception from last weeks I’m glad that you’re all enjoying it so much! Remember to download, mix and have an awesome weekend of nostalgia.
First up is a song I’ve been rockin’ for a decade now and that’s Hole’s “Celebrity Skin.” Yeah, Courtney love is sooo 90s, but that’s where we’re aiming! Special Girl Talk track from Unstoppable up for download as well for those whose collections begin at Night Ripper.
Second is Boyz II Men’s classic “I’ll Make Love To You.” Always an on-point track to close a night off to, it’s a shame that this r&b staple hasn’t become more of a DJ anthem…but I really shouldn’t be giving away all of my secrets like this.
Next up is actually a track that makes it onto the list of my favorite songs of all time, and that’s Baby Bash’s “Suga Suga.” Please don’t comment on the previous statement, but lifelong memories are attached and that beat is just so dank…this song will def be played at my way-in-the-future wedding.
Does anyone remember Coolio? I actually caught him live a few years ago, it was awesome to say the least. If you’re familiar with Pachelbel’s Canon then chances are you’re a music student, and if you’re a music student then chances are you’re aware of Pachelbel’s Canon in Vitamin C’s “Graduation” and Coolio’s “I’ll C U When U Get There” just to name two popular relevant tracks. To learn more about Pachelbel’s Canon in D in contemporary music there’s an awesome and hilarious Youtube video of Rob Paravonian going through his own personal history with the song incorporating some great examples of musical borrowing. Check it out after the jump.
