Still have a mixed party tape which has this song on it, it sits in the old walkman which i still sometimes take to the beach to listen to .
Think i still have Culture Beats Mr Vain in my CD single collection also.

Not sure about RWB's club with the cocktails but sounds decent! Taylor Square area... all I can think of is the Stonewall, Banana Bar, Taxi Club and Manacle. There were so many holes in the wall though ay! Each door had a full blown nightclub.

I spent quite a few years living near the Beauchamp (Rose Tce if you can picture it... little laneway off South Dowling with a park at the end). Can remember it and the Albury basically took over both sides of Oxford st as you'd have people walking between the two with a beer in hand.

Side note, I used to DJ at the upstairs venue across South Dowling from the Beauchamp. However there were no crazy party tunes. I was a nerdy dude who mostly did slow-tempo club mixes of jazz/blues tunes while people were eating dinner at the Chinese restaurant or enjoying a few early cocktails at the bar (all unpaid but I enjoyed the vibe of it all).

You would have loved it..the cocktails were served by ladies dressed in white..it was set up like some sort of laboratory..it was probably called that..I'll say yes to going to all of the above apart from Manacle..the others bring back memories...I think....

This man turned up at Tunnel...why wasn't I there?

Yes cant say i remember any bar that served cocktails in test tubes, the only one i can sort of think of was maybe The Taylor Square Hotel which was where Flinders st wrapped around onto Campbell st where Gilligans Island was , way before it was the Taylor Square Hotel it was the infamous Barracks bar, think its a medical centre now.

Lived around the Darlinghurst, Surry Hills, East Sydney area from 1986- 1996 so spent many nights and mornings along the strip. The Sunday sessions at the Oxford Hotel were great, the Taxi Club was always great late at night, back before the Liquor laws changed, it was one of the few places you could get a beer on Good Friday. Despite all great bars and clubs that were heaving on weekend nights, the strip had some great eateries, you mentioned Cafe Belgenny, before it was Belgenny, it was the Schnitzel Haus, a lovely old couple ran it and the schnitzels were huge and delicious, i always remember the Niagara Falls clock they had on the wall, then was the Balkan who also did great schnitzels among other great dishes, Rockerfellers, the American hamburger joint which was fabulous, loved their mozzarella sticks, there were so many more places and 99.9 % are now gone.

Yes i know Rose Terrace , its a lovely little street, there are some nice hidden spots like that around the area. That DJ gig you had sounds great, jazz and blues are so soothing and relaxing to listen to, would have been a great time for you despite not being paid.

I went there with a friend who's brother was quite a famous jockey at the time and he shouted me some ridiculously overpriced drinks as they were throwing money around like water in those days..I ran into him in Melbourne and he actually sold my family the city apartment down there..small world..we went to Balkan Seafood too

I'm old enough to remember the original and I have a deep appreciation for the work of Giorgio Moroder. This thread is for the music we danced to in clubs and raves. That's why I posted it in this thread.

Here is another I danced to in clubs:
