There’s a rich, glorious tradition of the Piano in the history of House & Balearic so what are your favourite tracks, songs & tunes that feature the old Joanna?
Doesn’t just have to be House or Balearic btw, all genres welcome.
I’ll start with 3 i love.
First heard this one on a Hacienda mix CD back in the 90s & have loved it since, just pure good vibes House.
This is one i picked up recently that i think is great.
& this might be my favourite ever song, sublime, makes me forgive Jools Holland for all that ‘Boogie Woogie’ piano he’s done for the last 20 odd years
I played it at a gig a few weeks ago, a lady came up to the booth and was disappointed that it wasn’t actually me playing the piano. Now, it was a particularly good soundsystem and a well recorded piece of music but I fear she may have been ‘in drink’
Not a scene that gets much love on here or anywhere really, “hardcore”. But when a mate had this last copy in 1992, I just had to have it. “very wicked piano tune” was written on it. I think I had to do something very humiliating to get it, but I still have it and it is still maddeningly catchy.
Fuck yeah. Heard this one via a video of Kamma and Masalo on the Dekmantel insta. My favourite happy record in ages. You need the maxi 12 btw if anyone is buying it.
