More '90s House, but different

Lots of people have been predicting an early-90s vocal house comeback for a while now, and while it might sorta be happening, it probably won't make any real inroads into the U.S. for a while. Projects like Azari & III, Hercules & Love Affair, House of House and The Juan MacLean have been experimenting with this sound and garnering critical attention for years, but sadly most average "independent music-lovers" seem to be so much more likely to be fucking with thuggy dubstep than affeminate diva-house with cheesy organs. But YOU GUYS should. Just because DJ Sprinkles ranted about labels like Strictly Rhythm co-opting pure underground instrumental house music by adding vocals and turning it into 'commodity' (or something) doesn't mean it doesn't rule. And now you can hear a bunch of great tracks from the era on one convenient Resident Advisor podcast from Scott Grooves, who apparently played keyboards for Kevin Saunderson's Inner City project. "Good Life" and "Big Fun" are jamz...



But yeah, this mix is apparently a 90 minute mix-tape Scott made sometime in 1993, with two sides of classic house tracks... here's the tracklist he gave RA, and a link to both the article about the mix and the mix itself (since the official link just expired). And YES, it's even awesome enough to have that Robin S song on there even though it was a giant hit and now we can all sing it at karaoke parlors worldwide. And a remix of "That's the Way Love Goes".
