80s Dance Classics: The Essential 80s Dance Mix Vol. 1 (2019)

80s Dance Classics — The Essential 80s Dance Mix Vol. 1 (2019) is the first of six volumes assembling the era’s synth-driven, club-ready sounds. This episode maps the decade’s shift from disco foundations to mid‑80s synth pop and the underground house scenes that emerged in Chicago and New York. Highlights include synth-pop staples like Duran Duran’s “All She Wants Is,” the genre‑blending grit of Grace Jones’ “I’m Not Perfect,” and early house-influenced cuts such as Anthony & The Camp’s “What I Like.” The set also revisits pop-dance moments from Samantha Fox and Whitney Houston, with a lineup of Ultimix, Hot Classics, Select Mix, and Edge remixes that emphasize how DJs and re-edits shaped the club experience. Running over two and a half hours, this volume pulls selections from Party Favorz’s earlier themed mixes while keeping the focus tight on dancefloor-friendly edits and remixes. It’s curated for listeners who want a broad, era-spanning listen that still feels like a cohesive club mix.
