Electroclash meets Happy Hardcore style thing with a vocodered voice saying something about "Movie Star. Movie Star, ahhhh, to think you are a movie..."

Anyone know this?

Sounds a lot like Stereo Total's "Movie Star"

Actually, it's Savant DJ - "Moviestar" from the first Digital Disco comp which also features Data 80.

one year passes...

so here's a track played by dj koze circa 2002, although it's obviously much older than that. any ideas on what it may be?

Nightcrawlers - Push the feeling on - MK (Marc Kinchen) mix, if you're from the UK and of a certain age you could probably be happy never to hear this track ever again!

what? obvs nightcrawlers, this track was a massive hit!

Marc Kinchen did better, Mirror / Mirror is fantastic. DJ Koze didn't play anything like that when I heard him spin a couple of weeks ago.

Yeah, BIG hit in tthe UK but not sure how global. Very funny seeing a live singer trying to mime to the pitched up vocal in the remix on TV. The original was a slice of woeful blue-eyed soul / acid jazz.

Thanks a ton, that's going in my DJ folder, could be a great secret weapon. That set was from 2002, I love his sets around that time. The 3-hour video set of him playing at Betalounge has to be one of the most seductive DJ sets of all time.

That record has got to be one of the most well known house tracks in Europe, maybe just behind I Like To Move It.

i'm from the US and heard this track all the time in mixes with pop-house/freestyle tracks on the local rap/rnb radio station. always liked it!

one time, Thursday, 27 December 2007 23:23 (eighteen years ago)

Ha! I've been wondering what that was for years! Theres a radio station that plays pop/dance songs from the later 80's and early 90's that plays this a bunch, mind you in the spirit big riffy pop-house songs like this or I Like To Move It/Everybody Dance Now etc. I remember around this time last year I heard it in a mix and just after heard Adam Marshall play it out. I couldn't decide whether it was more wry-humour or a sincere fondness.

Seeing how this is an appropriate thread, I'm going to try once more and then I promise I'll stop spamming ILM with it, but if anyone can identify this, I will love you forever. http://www.zshare.net/audio/581006834c5b95
