Hot Streak - Body Work



If there's one type of music responsible for my current tastes then it has to be 80's electro.

When I was a kid the coolest thing in the world was breakdancing and body-popping. I still can't do the moves, but like skateboarding if I had three wishes the first two would be taken with these.

Sad, but oh so true.

This track by Hot Streak captures the vibe of most of the electro tracks of the time.

Not one of the most influential, but certainly much sampled and one of my favourites.

It always evokes images of the massive ghetto blaster stereos, New York streets and Big Bird. Hey, I was a kid!
