We're Going to Dance and Have Some Fun AGAIN!!! And this time as a Pre Portland Pride Party!
There's no denying that the first edition of Groove is in the Heart was PURE MAGIC! I received several requests to do it again so . . . Back by popular demand (and because I didn't make through all my records last time) It's Groove is in the Heart Part 2!
Updated original description below:
My
next dance party will be one near dear to my heart. Every dance-DJ has
an origin - that music or experience that woke them up to the magic of
music + dancing.
Please join me in celebrating the good vibes that made me realize I love to dance during my "ARTSY" high school years.
FLAME
presents GROOVE IS IN THE HEART is a tribute to some of my DANCE
musical roots - a mixture of groovy 1960s/1970s + 1980s outcast anthems + '90s "Daisy
Age" dance grooves (and some of the original records they sampled).
Expect
to hear Deee-Lite, The Ramones, The Supremes, De La Soul, Otis Redding,
the B-52s, Aretha Franklin, The Velvet Underground, Stevie Wonder,
Prince, ABBA, The Pixies, the Monkees, and so much more!
Dress
in your own version of a 1980s or 1990s outcast outfit, and get ready to dance with Me,
Myself & I at the Kenton Club! Allow yourself to BELIEVE IN THE
POWER OF LOVE by dancing to vintage vinyl!
Like
most DJ Action Slacks dance parties, this event is open to all
kind-hearted people, but is geared toward the Portland LGBTQmunity &
its allies.
