I'm no videographer - nor do I claim to be!!! My focus is the music I fell in love with - songs that were never remixed into an extended form but kept me enchanted and coming back to the turntable to play them again and again... some are Disco, some are Dance, some are ballads... all of which I'd have a field day with if I was ever allowed access to the master tracks!! I always prefer a remix that sounds like the original song - modern "house" and "trance" re-interpretations just drive me up the wall - I LOVE REAL MUSIC!! I want the music to send me on a journey, not some chemical made in a bathtub!! Is there any hope for me??
I fell in love with Disco Versions back in 1980 - I was 15 and on a bilingual exchange to the Canadian province of Quebec. We went to a rollerdisco, and as I entered the rink, Alicia Bridges started singing I Love The Nightlife... and here I was trying to lipsinc to the radio version I knew, when the 12" album version was playing... boy, was I surprised! Growing up on a farm, only listening to radio and spending any money I had on K-tel records, I had never been exposed to Extended Versions before!!!
Needless, to say, that moment CREATED A MONSTER!!!!
Enjoy the songs - compare my versions to the radio singles you already know - and better yet, find a special someone to hold on to and share the experience with, because the best music, whether fast or slow, disco, rock, country or soul, was made for dancing!!!

Micah McLaurin - Moons (Chris' Once In A Blue Mix)
The Force is strong with this one - the spirit of '78 is alive and well - its four-on-the-floor heartbeat is thumping and calling us back to the dance. Micah is a trained pianist (who should have soloed an instrumental section here in this song, as well as written another verse and a bridge - but I digress). Dance Music hasn`t moved me like this since Pink`s double negative I`m Never Gonna Not Dance Again. Alas, a 12`` Version has yet to be created that takes this song home and turns it into the huge Disco Anthem it deserves to be (there is an extended dub version, but those tend to just annoy me...) so here is my cut and paste. This mix is disco dj-friendly and should fill the floor at midnight.
Micah is on a journey of self discovery, and I encourage you to check him out. Here is a link to his web site: www.micahmclaurin.com/about
This kid has a lot of potential - see his videos here on UA-cam (if you can stand the ads!) and give him your support.

Another case of the original 12" version having most of the instruments stripped out leaving a sparse soundscape. I merely added some of the radio single on top to fill it out.
Mac McAnally - Minimum Love (Chris' New Maximum Mix)
Переглядів 794Рік тому
As visually distracting as his name may be, Mac McAnally had a near-Top 40 hit in 1983, and I bought the 45. I am still figuring out how I feel about the lyrics - I think I have met this guy a few times in life, and I'd like to know who raised him to think this way! This is a remake of my previous edit, as it was done a decade ago when I knew even less about how to remix music! Enjoy. Lyman Cor...
Madge - Cherish (Chris' Ritts Mix)
Переглядів 408Рік тому
In memory of a great photographer whose work I appreciated in its day. I recently became aware that the 12" of Cherish did NOT include the vocal break from the album/single, so, to correct this egregious oversight, I thought I'd include it here (memories of On The Radio! Why they don't include all parts on an Extended Version mystifies me). Does anyone know the name of this man? Enjoy.

It's been a long time since I remixed something - let's see how long this stays up and where... I found a remix online that is a "stripped out" mix - remnants of the original vocal tracks are there; it is not a stem or original tracks remix. I ran it through the mill and came up with this!

Remember this from my college days, up @ NAU, Flagstaff, AZ during the autumn of '79. Great radio hit back in the day! 🌌📻🎶🎼😊
Cada que escucho está canción me roba unas lágrimas Grande #CarlosSantana🕺🕺💪💪
God, great song!!!!
Bella canción a mi hermana mayor le encanta
Ancora oggi fantastico pezzo 👍🔥

It's a metaphor, written in the Psychedelic 60's.
You know you smell just like a brand new car. 🤣

I was born in 1970, and I remember this song , I was only 9 / 10 years old and this was on the radio and America Band Stand , and yet, I’m still listening it in 2024, thanks 🙏 for this Extended Version it’s Epic 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏👍🗽❤️🇨🇺🇺🇸, B R from New York
Thanks. I love this song, too.
BRILLIANT!!!!!😀
Easily her best vocal performance. Love it!
As I have always said this is how you mix a Donna Summer song. Take the original and just tweek it.
The remixers of the '90's and 2000's drove me crazy when they'd ignore the original chord progression and do something too simple - it was insulting. I can understand speeding up a vocal ballad to make something up tempo, but even then, the record companies could have had the vocalist come back in for another recording session to get it right.
I don't think Donna Summer has made a bad album.
This is an excellent album. All her 80s albums are awesome.
1982 havit home hotpop best!
I remember dancing to this song at the local dancing. The sound was massive and I was in seventh heaven. This equals MJ, or maybe better.
The best song 🎵 ❤️ 💕
Wee Sheena fae Bellshill , my my ❤ was a wee hottie back in thr day nae wonder wee prince/symbol or wtf he went by ran after her great rework of a 80 classic takes me back.
Hi Christopher, this just came up on a playlist create by UA-cam for me. I just love the superb work you've done here. Peter 💯
So glad you’re back! Here’s an artist I’d like you to consider. He’s a great singer, great songwriter, and is prime remix material. The artist is Adam Mac- his first full length album is called Adam Mac “Disco Cowboy”. Released 5/21/23 Check out the following tracks: Fever dream- I just wanna dance- New vibration - Genesis- Cowboy disco- Hope this finds you well. And again, really glad you’re back 💯🎧❤
I checked Adam out - I listened to his full playlist in the wee hours this morning while I was awake, and I'm sad to say that I find his stuff repetitive in the modern I'm-trying-to-be-profound-like-Paul-Simon-but-am really-trying-to-say-too-many-words style. And, he's trapped in the minor modes musically. While he's certainly doing well at telling his story (which rings home with me!!) I did not hear anything that was a floor-filling Disco Anthem. I do like his hats. Tell me what you like about his music.
@@Leftatalbuquerque Appreciate the time you took to listen and respond. You’re a mensch Chris. 🎧💯
@@peterd.9522 Oy gevalt.

Alta calidad y gracias x subirla el tema de primera con remix de primer nivel
Hello!, Another "stalker" song with killer hooks! You haven't uploaded in awhile. I hope you're okay. Such a staggering amount of mixes on your channel. Hope all's well💗
I'm still here - I just came to the end of my wish list as far as remixes went. Thanks for asking. The same to you! Christopher
@@Leftatalbuquerque Well you rocked the remix world 🌎 more than most mate, so do what makes you feel good and thanks for sharing. 🎧
I wrote the producer and asked for the the sheet music to learn to play on the guitar. I could play it, but can't sing it worth s**t. I sound great with headphones on and nobody around. Such an awesome song.
Esta canción siempre me gustó una de las mejores del álbum un 10 ❤❤
THE greatest song of the glam rock/ disco era of the 70s. What really compares in terms of power of a song?
Never get tired of listening 😊
I had completely forgotten about this song. I like it !!!!! I forgot what year that it was releazed.
