80s Dance Mix: The Essential 80's Dance Mix Vol. 3 (2019)

This 2019 80s Dance compilation — The Essential 80's Dance Mix Volume 3 — is a two-hour Urban-flavored set built to celebrate the decade’s funk, R&B dance, electro and early rap. Party Favorz spent two weeks selecting and editing tracks to create a flowing mix that shifts between chart pop, alternative dance touches, and the era’s pioneering club sounds. Highlights include inventive pairings and remixes such as the mashup of Grandmaster Flash’s White Lines with Herbie Hancock’s Rock It, plus club-ready takes on Janet Jackson’s Nasty and Rob Base & DJ EZ-Rock’s It Takes Two. The set also features Run-DMC’s Walk This Way, Salt-N-Pepa’s Push It and Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam’s I Wonder If I Take You Home, among other classics. Taken as a whole the mix sketches a concise history of 80s dance floors—synth grooves, electro-funk, and rap’s early party moments—while keeping a DJ’s sense of momentum and crowd-pleasing familiarity.
