This was my jam!!!! back in the dayz!!! Still Funky, listen in the year 2016

[@Musicradio77Network]

I got this 12" single at a thrift store before they closed down where they did the final sale. I got it for free along with a few 12" singles that I haven't got it in quite a while. This one is "Arkade Funk" which was the alternate version and issued as a B-side. The A-side is 6:00 while the B-side is 6:22. I'll have to try it out.

[@peacheslovesjesus]

Are you ready to throw down? When music was clean and fun. I don't don't know what this mess is today... I am from Baltimore, too. Remember block parties on the eastside, Eager St? I went to a few Madison rec. dances with Mr. Wells. I was sheltered back then. Now I am covered by the BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST. Skeeter, Lumpy, Junior? Sound familiar? Holla!

[@BF6ct]

Now this was the jam.

[@walkerpantera]

BATTLE TANK video game, my fav in the early 80s!

[@Ceylonia]

Wow ,I have been looking for a particular track for years,since around 84 It might be the next track On this list,chuck Brown Mr Magic.I got distracted by a very Beautiful face saying how she was On a Treadmill. Tammantha Shaw Is so sweet looking omg.

[@tammanthashaw9299]

Hello Mark, Thanks Hon. You look handsome, you are a distraction as well. I stroll down to this song this morning and saw your comment.

[@Ceylonia]

Thank you Tammantha that's very sweet.But I am being serious. What are you doing On a Treadmill anyway. Can I add you On FB.

[@dre52370]

Wow!!!! What a trip down memory lane! I used to have this album!!!

I remember cuttin up at the Chapter the whole weekend.Three days straight at the Chapter, got a room across the street...

[@ThyGeekGoddessMuze]

Still fun after all these years. Fun fact - Funk means “radio” in German. Lots of vets learned that from our grandparents who served in the Army.

[@jjowee]

Back in 1982, that Go-Go jam was slammin'.

[@originalhiphop]

@MrMaxPounder ...actually this is Trouble Funk . They were under contract to Sugarhill and couldnt record under thier name. Big Tony told me this personally......

[@sleepnomore6065]

Damn, this is amazing! 🤩And I was born in the late 80s

[@screw67]

@originalhiphop I dont know what Tony was telling you but Hot Cold Sweat and (Iceberg) Slim were an actual Go-Go band and DJ , respectively. HCS recorded for D.E.T.T. too but it was their band, not Trouble Funk and their band.

[@sheldonhchambliss1385]

trouble kept something hot for the dance floor DJ mighty master cee

[@1987short]

all of the video games we played back then

[@omgiambeto]

Genial hermano, excelente. Gracias por el aporte.

[@castortroykrb]

I remember being " High " Listening to this @ Howard Theater/Tricky Rick was playing it Before Mass Exstinction was about to come on....Man i was stuck in my chair ( I think i stopped smoking boat after that !) This was the SHIT !

[@walkerpantera]

HAHAHA I HEAR YA!! I lived a block away from Howard on Florida @ 5th. Used to smoke boat all through mid 80s. Last time i smoked was in like 93 and we rode bikes down to the Mall adter 4th of July crowds left, riding around seeing alllllll the trash folks left behind, ZOOTED LIKE SH1T! I miss those boat days.

[@meechamaka411]

This was CRAY-ZEE... "R U ready to go down???"

[@revivalpressure]

i had this on a white label....biiig tune!

[@jeromecary7518]

I remember being at the Washington Coliseum when Trouble came out in masks and hit this.

[@djJohnnyDomino.official]

Same with their other D.E.T.T. record, under the name Slim, "It's In the Mix."

[@VonVitto]

I learned how to pop and lock on this joint!

[@rickydfcc77]

Interesting that you posted this side of the 12", I suppose the Baltimore/Washington area preferred this version. In Philly, the flip side got more exposure. The flip side was also sampled in a version of "It's Your Birthday" by Luke.

[@rubymorris9728]

Are you ready to throw down

[@lajuanamckinney1951]

House party was the shit back then people were cool it was about having fun

[@brianmoore3580]

At the time Trouble Funk had some mess going on with them and Sugar Hill Records. So they changed their name to Tilt just temporary then back to Trouble Funk.

[@chillingathome3]

Thanks for explanation. I was at Fort Campbell, KY and they would play it in club and thought it sounded familiar but the group name threw me off.

[@richmck007]

My original 1982 12" was printed with Arcade Funk Tilt. What is the Trouble Funk connection? Apart from the Electro Funk / Go-Go genre as we would call it back in da' day on London...

[@JayQuanVA]

rich Mck Trouble Funk was signed to Sugar Hill at the time, and they recorded under aliases

[@kevinlawhorn5325]

a sweet mix of go go and hip hop

[@jainorissolney6669]

David Young Go Go bands were part of the foundation of rap music. Pump me up was Trouble and the Furious 5. Trouble didn't just play the music they rapped too. I think EU plays the music for Kurt is Blow.

[@jkdortch2308]

WHAT

[@JayQuanVA]

Jainoriss Olney Trouble Funk made Pump Me Up. The Furious 5 later really did it. EU played for Kurtis Blow on Party Time

[@stevenwilson5107]

Forgot about this 1982 was my shit man 😂😮

[@originalhiphop]

@MrMaxPounder .... JQ: Arkade Funk was my shit! It was credited to Tilt. That was just Trouble Funk under a different name right? BT: Yes, like I said we were in a contract with Sugar Hill where we couldn’t record for awhile. So we did Dett records, and we recorded under different names like Tilt, Slim, Hot Cold Sweat, it was just us finding a way around that contract. Hot Cold Sweat was actually a mixture of Trouble Funk and the Hot Cold Sweat Band.

In fuckin credible beats...the good days.
