Stratus Dance Club (Revisited) Circa 1986-1987 - Part 2 [Top 80's Electro Synth-Pop & Funky Fashion]

At 13:15 I’m dancing in the background but I move to dancing with straw hat girl. So cool!!! I’m 57 now! To see myself at 21 again having so much fun truly made my day thank you

[@Yungrexy]

I see you, you look so cool. I made this a few years ago and technology has since advanced (as has my editing skills) so I was recently considering upscaling the raw footage to HD and remaking it. I will tag you in it if I do. There is a part 1 to this, you should check it out as you may appear in that one too... Judging by your username you might actually enjoy a lot of the content on my channels, this one is mainly for early trance, pop, hip hop etc and my other (rem:trecords) is mainly for early and obscure ambient trance & experimental. So happy you have found this bit of nostalgia, I make these things for a hobby and it's very rewarding when when it reminds people of previous happy times.

[@martisellarsChill_Trance]

@@Yungrexyyes I started listening to EDM & Trance very young! As you see! I’m not in the other video I checked. However this was so awesome and a time to remember for sure. I look forward to hearing more

All those cigarettes in dancing hands! Using nearly a can of hairspray for each club visit, myself, I'm surprised none of us went up in flames.

Lol. It actually did happen a LOT. Many a night out I had featured a bouffant poodle perm going "wooof" at some stage :D It was mainly candles or cigarette lighters that sparked them, not the actual cig's themselves ;)

Back in mid 80s the 1940s seemed so distant you got old just thinking about it. Here we are 40 years on and the 80s still seem like it was only a shot away. What a time to be alive, in particular the eclectic music and club culture was rockin and every clique of youth you could imagine sprang up from nowhere. The 80s man 🙏🏽

[@ms.elegant4571]

Actually, disco died in the 70s as metal bands became popular. The 80s picked up where Andy Warhol and the Alternative 60s left off, then became too popularized via bands like The Smiths, U2, The Clash etc, leaving it open to what we have today.

[@rick5346]

Stratus and Studio 9…….so many of us would go to Stratus first and then head over to Studio 9 which stayed open until 4-5am. Those were the days….best time of my life!!

I love Yaz. ( American here haha) Alison Moyet still brings me to tears. The late 80’s and 90’s were the best times in history. We all accepted each others uniqueness and celebrated along with each other. I remember dancing the entire 4 to 5 hours in the club. Thank you for letting me relive this!

[@ricardobenitez3013]

I am not meaning to pick your comment apart as I also love "Yaz" as we call them in Canada - and respect for your mention of the Yaz/DM connection in Clarke!! Just pointing out for those looking for this track "State Farm" - it was released as a 12" and does not appear (at least in North America) on either of the 2 Yaz albums. I don't think it was released until about a year after Upstairs at Eric's came out. I played this record in 2001 at a minimal tech night at a bar in Montreal and everyone got hyped haha ❤

[@Truthseeker1515]

Really miss not having participated. A 13 year old in 1986, only allowed to go clubbing in the early 90s as folks would not allow me out during HS! The music scene had somewhat moved on by then with Eurodance/techno the dominant trends. Very different beat. By the early 90s, fashion had also changed, girls were Amy Grant lookalikes with baggy jeans. Big hair was out. And for guys, flannel shirts, stonewashed or ripped jeans. The Seattle grunge look. No one would have looked that smart with so many diverse fashion genres on show. That went out by 1991 and the mighty recession. What remained the same, however, is the fact there were no cellulars, you had to find a pay-phone to call your folks to pick you up or find someone to give you a ride back home. We also smoked as much. Gen X all the way and no regrets.

[@TrollWrangler]

I just turned 59 😂, life is strange. I was hanging out in LA at this time, but was just at the HooDoo Gurus a few weeks ago at Humphreys on the Bay. Was more into KROQ & KNAC. All the clubs on Sunset and Scream at Park Plaza. It’s so cool to see people again like this even tho it wasn’t exactly my scene. Everyone looks so cute 😎❤️

When shoulder pads ruled! 😆😆😆

[@diebackmischung503]

Is it just me or did they have way more style variants? Today is all white shirts and black pants lol

[@Yungrexy]

Individuality was the way... People were not afraid to express themselves, this was obviously before social media made people overly self conscious and more likely to blend in rather than stand out.

[@dianelaag2944]

We had more stores/boutiques then. Some wore thrift shop clothes but they knew how to put their outfits together.

[@Kenistyless]

​@dianelaag2944 " to put their outfits together "; you KNOW that!!!

[@BabylonPatrol]

the less your money was worth, the less uniform your style or not style, the cooler the scene. a lot of the best punk bands of the era, for example, didn't do the punk look. in fact, in 36 or Brixton you could tell that some punk was from outta town if he had the full gear & hair and was unnecessarily rude. you'd meet far more often someone who was a punk but dressed up as skinhead or who liked classical music and had a little kid and the life that comes with that. some of the toughest people looked super straight. and that's actually good because it inhibits prejudging, at least of a certain type.
