Is there a booty bass version of Bardeux "When We Kiss" that I don't know about? That version I know has almost a new jack swing feel.

This list sucks so goddamned hard it's not even funny...

We've approached it at Miami Bass History, but we all gave up pretty quickly:

yeah it's pretty arbitrary-looking

(mark have you read papawheelie's great bass primer?)

Those are basically the greatest songs known to man. I just finally picked up the DJ Funk Booty House Anthems mix CD yesterday - it's classic!

I love Kinsu "Tha Hop"!!!

I will admit, there're some great songs on that list, but sadly, you're right. Arbitrary...

There're some mis-info on that 2 year old primer I wrote (if you're referencing the ElectroEmpire/JahSonic one). Magic Mike was not invlived with Give it All You Got. The confusion was over the fact that he and Rod Whitehead were working on a song called Get Up On This at the same time for the same label using possibly some same vocal samples. Rod & Mike's song was never released.

Derrick Rahming, Juan Arroyo, and Mark Rice DID in fact produce Give it All You Got, changing a huge point I was making in my old story.

D'oh!

Funny thing is, they only produced Give it All You Got as a way to get notice before making their Hip-Hop album. Nobody cared about their Hip-Hop album, effectivly, hampering their career.

Before they were Afro-Rican, they were the mobile DJ crew known as We Down Express.

I'm not sure why everyone is saying that list is arbitrary. I know the tops songs very well and I'm less familiar as the list goes on...

Also, I like thinking of myself as a booty person.

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 11 July 2005 21:09 (twenty years ago)

Spencer, the primer Jones is refering to:

http://www.electroempire.com/miami.htm

Not only do I include an essential listening, I break it down into context.

Truthfully though, I only know a bit about 3rd Wave Booty, so me leaving songs such as Kinsui's The Hop is equally as arbitrary...

(again, the 2nd wave part regarding Give it all You Got needs a massive update - hopefully the Stylus piece I'm doing will set the record straight)

PappaWheelie (PappaWheelie), Monday, 11 July 2005 21:12 (twenty years ago)

Ooooh, this looks good! I will pore over it and return.

Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 11 July 2005 21:18 (twenty years ago)

Well, I should offer the disclaimer that this is strictly Miami Bass History, and not Ghetto-tech, Ghetto-House, Baltimore Breaks, Crunk, New Orleans Bounce, or anything else people deem booty...I really know nothing about those genres other than the fact that they do nothing for me.

I think I digested all the X-Rated electro I could prior to the development of those sub-genres. I got out of it right around the time Bounce came on the scene (very early 90's).

Then again, I love Dopplereffekt, if that's somewhat X-Rated. Well, PG13 maybe...
