Mico Wave - Instant Replay

Music video by Mico Wave performing Instant Replay. (C) 1988 SONY BMG MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT

[@robertblack6279]

This was the song back in the day! Sounding like Bootsy and Roger Troutman had a musical child together and named it Instant Replay!

[@staceymartin6652]

N Prince

[@rwsocks11]

straight truth spoken

[@ModalSoul]

I think roger troutman has an uncredited appearance in this cameo because DJ quik says Roger only taught him how he played the talk box.

[@2livedave]

Bootsy Collins produced it

[@mrc.p.323]

No I am NOT Bootsy's son But when we worked together in the 80's every one assumed that we were brothers, and Dru down is not his son Bootsy's son is "oowee" we call him little Bill Mico Wave

[@tonyhorne6366]

I remember dj blackstar played this jam at golden skates in Cincinnati Rocked the place every week

[@landyachtcruiser]

Well long road and forgot about this song, me my friends used to play this song in my car and still have the tape. Went to Boston university and attended from 1986 / 1990. Finally got my first car at the age of 19 in 1987 during my junior college year. Still keeping my boat and never going to be selling it anytime soon. After all these years I found my old jam, 35 years ago never goes old.

[@markbaker2788]

This track still hits hard

[@arthurward6871]

Man I hear this jam as a teen in the late 80s. Stuck in my head! It was played every night on the Cool Carolina Night segment! Took me years to find this joint cause I thought it was called Rewind the Tape of Time! I heard it in my coworkers office and I Shazamed it! Man it was like finding money in your pants pocket that you forgot about! Love this joint!!!! #Nostalgia

[@capone70]

I feel you. I always thought it was Zapp/Roger and could never find it until just the other day.

[@lashenamcginnis]

This song take me back .. BET when I was a shorty . Jam

[@trinaf.6313]

Sweet soulful sound. This was my jam back in the day and still is until this day.

[@lukeskywalker313]

[@sheiladotson3073]

[@mrc.p.323]

[@timothylester11]

Mico Wave is a super-talented musical genius. Better than all of today's so-called music.

[@bobcummings8228]

Why did he call himself "Mico Wave"??? LOLLL! Still love this classic slow jam!

[@Calimarine]

Cause his name was “michael” and he was hot!!🔥🔥😂😂😂😂

[@georgemoore5414]

Great production by bootsy on this song

[@YourHalfSister]

I remember this playing on the car radio during driver's ed in high school. I love the 80's!

[@lashawnharrison2294]

cassette

[@capone70]

That's a hella cool memory right there. A lot of the 80s need to stay in the 80s tho. But this jam is definitely something we should promote/pay forward.

[@robertcummings8088]

I still LOVE this classic slow jam by Mico Wave! It's the ONLY song I heard by him! Where is he now?? Such a great classic here even in 2018!

[@peacemaker0606]

When I first heard this song on BET years ago, I was hooked. After I got a little older and Napster came out, this was on one of the first CDs I made. And I've made dozens of copies for people reminding them of this one. LOVE IT!!!

[@sayedenforever556]

THIS IS A FOREVER JAM!!! FOREVER EVER!!!

[@1814DREADYHEAD]

I.still listen to this. I have the 12 inch version

[@michaelfreddy9727]

Wonderful. Still love his music after so many years. Unforgotten dear!

[@Kcott2411]

I use to be about 15 when I would record this over and over on the cassette tape, and listen to this all day😊.....oh my this just brought back great memories

[@ronniebrown6717]

Grew up with mike! From Champaign,Illinois!

[@ourcountrynotourselves3933]

This was my jam back in the day!!

[@angelaunderwood7389]

[@Chief44]

[@shawn4ever77]

I don't know where I've been to not hear this song as a kid when this came out but this right here is TIMELESS ❤️❤️

[@sarahsimpkins1311]

I'm 42 I remember hearing this when I was 7 years old this use to be play on B.E.T back in the day

[@obryantphillips8053]

Damn i use to hear that song on Kris radio wut ever happened to that group they're wut R&B Is missing today. All those funky jams, zapp roger, bootsy parliament, Morris day the time Prince one way, just can't get good music like that these day's.

[@craigknight35]

This was my jam back in the 80’s

[@TheWilliamGold]

im fortunate enough to have Mr. Lane as a family friend which has opened my music career up to a whole different level! He is an awesome guy in person, an amazing musician, love watching his jam sessions!

[@tjtkeller35]

You hear people say stop looking back at the past and focus on the present.But the present doesn't have any of the great music that I listened to on the 80's and 90's!!This song was the ish!!!

[@tmewarp5]

Mico Wave is the musical director for "Purple Reign" a Prince tribute band in Vegas! You can see him every friday nite at the "Hooters" hotel casino.

[@justdanadane]

KZbin really does have everything. I just knew I wasn't gonna find this one. Wow. Just....wow. I love this song so much.

[@devious357]

Got to love the talkbox on this jam

[@jeremiahwilliams7809]

R&B nostalgia at it's finest.....

[@MichaelLaneMedia]

NEW SINGLE ON ITUNES AROUND THE MIDDLE OF FEBRUARY 2011 MICO WAVE

[@lamontwoods4222]

Still rewinding the tape in 2020

[@rodrickthompson2799]

Typed in 80s song rewind the tape. The Deele popped up, they had a song called rewind the tape, but I knew that wasn't it, then this POPPED UP!!!

[@sarahsimpkins2021]

I remember I used to see this on video souls back in the days as an little girl.

[@RVictory777]

One of my fav 80s songs. 🔥

[@gerarpope6581]

Wow, I remember as a kid having this cassette album. This track in itself was a regular on R&B stations at the time. It hits differently after all these years but in a positive way. Some songs from back in the day I will listen to and wonder, why was it a hit? Not this one. The sound, look, energy, and everything else was classic mid-80s. Everything that Charlie Murphy referenced on what was in during this period. LOL but I Love it!

[@nldial]

Excited to have finally found this song!

[@marylavetta8136]

Just heard this on the radio! Love this song!😍

[@earlharmon9230]

I randomly out of the blue thought about this song, and decided to search for it here, and here it is. KZbin is so cool!

[@dexterparson1752]

Me too just today

[@عبدالقادرالجزائري-ف2ص]

Mayn! sounds like Bootsy's on that space bass

[@PhuckHue2]

thats who it is

[@gsmusic2009]

Its funky cause it was Bootsy Collins had his hand in on the production classic deep R&B!!!!

[@mcdonoghrahloh459]

I remember when the Pistons we're beating the Lakers in the finals and Vinnie Johnson was on fiya,his nickname was the Microwave.I used to poke at my bro who was a Laker fan by repeating "rewind the tape"!!!

[@lejonfo]

Omg omg thank you for posting. I have not heard this song since the 80s. I loved this song.

[@mr.lonniebooker3205]

Classic R&B throwback by Mico Wave using his normal lead vocals and his Sennheiser Vocoder background vocals and the track was recorded between February to April 1987 at United Sound Systems a.k.a. "The Disc" in Detroit, Michigan was engineered and mixed by Mr. Roger Dollarhide and Mr. Mike Lacapelli and Mr. Jim Vitti and was originally mastered at The Hit Factory by Mr. Herb Powers. The track was produced by George Clinton of P-Funk and was co-produced by Bootsy Collins of Bootsy's Rubber Band and with the performance of background vocals by Miss Sheila Washington formerly with Parlet and Jimmy G. And the Tackheads. Taken from the Columbia album Cookin' From The Inside Out. Later will be in a forthcoming post audio production reissue for Audio CD will be reissued by Funky Town Grooves U.S.A. and soon to be released by Autumn 2015 or after.

[@BornToBeFamed]

He on the talkbox , not the vocoder . His patch is just really good lol

[@kmelodic]

wow didnt know that...one of my fav. been looking for it for so long Thought it was Roger & Zap smh

[@mr.lonniebooker3205]

No, Not Roger. MicoWave did also use both talk box and vocoder as part of his provision for his debut album that he did back then. Also, his album was never released on a CD in the U.S. However, it was released on CD in a Japanese import. Funky Town Grooves hasn't released his reissue called "Cookin' From The Inside Out!!!" Expanded Edition just yet. They still in the process on releasing it and adding about 6 bonus tracks in different versions are Instant Replay in 12 inch promo and 7 inch promo along with Star Search 12 inch mix and 7 inch promo mix and Misunderstood in 12 inch promo and 7 inch promo. He was born as Michael Kerry Lane also known as "Mico Wave" on December 27, 1959 and his birthplace is in Champaign, Illinois.

[@kmelodic]

+Mr. Lonnie Booker . Great info! I always enjoy the story behind the making . I have an old talkbox myself its a real art to using it. love the sound but gonna get a newer one or use my vocoder

[@mr.lonniebooker3205]

B4 Zapp, Herbie and Mico Wave & Daft Punk are none other than the original Electrotronicteers and Pioneer Innovators of Electronic style music are none other than Kraftwerk. They are as of today as a logical electronic band and still touring all over the world.
