The 80's...Freetstyle, Mixing and BreakDancing...Beautiful!!

I remember moving to Puerto Rico in the early 80's. The Freestyle scene was taking form....then breakdancing got my attention. Those two combined and created an incredible environment, such that till this day I still call my old "Break" buddies and reminisce about those days...in my opinion "the best days of my life". I still have about 200 old school mix tapes! Anyone else here ever perform some "windmills" while listening to "Let the music play", back in the day?

Ahhh, da memories

I clearly remember Shannon's Let The Music Play Dub Version wearing out the boom boxes! I did some breakdancing for a quick minute before I realized that I was much more interested in Shannon's music. Damn shame we did not have the internet or EBay back then!

That same old sound is still around. Check out Flying Step's album from www.zyx.de ; the best in its category. Also, check out the freestyle single from Poland's United-United is back (Tic Tac Records/Sony Polska); today's freestyle, old school breakdance hehe
