Julian 'Jumpin' Perez - 102.7 FM WBMX, Chicago 8-13-87' (Manny'z Tapez)

Now here'z 1 of my favorite Julian 'Jumpin' Perez mixtapes. In this mix Julian drops Derrick May's aka Rhythim Is Rhythim 'The Dance', which was the 1st time I heard it. I was like what's this crazy rhythm with these raw sparse beats patterned different from what Chicago was doing. And I have a true story that goes with that. That track seemed impossible for me to get. This is back in 1987. I honestly didn't know who made the track. fast-forward a few years later & The Shamen came to Orlando, Florida for this party with Moby & other great DJ's and artist @ Club Visage. After thee event, Mr .C aka Richard West hung out with me & my friend Ned just on the way out of the club & we just talked for awhile about the House & Techno scene & tracks that we loved. At that moment I was like Mr .C, what's this song that goes like this... so I hummed Derrick May's 'The Dance' & right away Mr .C was, yo that's Derrick May's 'The Dance'. And that how I found out about that hot joint out of the Motor-City!LOL Thank you my brother Richard ♥ With all that being said, enjoy the mixtape.
