Basement Jaxx - Fly Life (Extra) 1997

[@trackid8862]

I love it when tracks from the 90s or even earlier are being played at parties, feels like they're still alive and still moving crowds so here's to the djs who don't play only the latest songs but give to younger generations a taste of oldschool grooviness

[@funkyderrick3980]

All london was on extazy in those years, even the postman would come back from a rave party, before starting his day, smiling ...

They work up an appetite before hitting Country Buffet w/ the homies, and check out the newest clearance sales at JC Penney.
