This is a delightful little jaunty tune, mixing ukulele(?) and synths. Something I'd use as background music for a children's show. Can't believe it has a "club mix" though... what club is playing this, even in 1985? 😆

Come for the precision in the brass section. Stay for the ridiculous range of the vocalist. And don't sleep on the hand percussion, it's not the focal point, but it's dope.
Yma Sumac - South American vocalist that had slightly over a 4 octive range... mesmerizing.

Folks that are not from the bay prolly won't recognize this flow as being quintessentially early 90s bay shit. Got me bumping my shoulders with the presumably Roger/Zapp sample. Back when hip hop tracks had to have that DJ scratch in them.

This is the type of joint I should play while I'm grocery shopping. A little bit droney, a little bit repetitive, but with a cool as flute solo (panned left) and groovy guitar solo (panned right). Would make me feel super confident in my food purchases 😂

This sparse, eerie, drum machine backed Czech track from the 80s is pretty interesting. The trumpet interjections took me by surprise. The video is somehow mesmerizing also.
