On November 18 of 2020, Vladivostok was hit by a Blizzard. I was studying that day. I had the plan to record a video podcast with my tutor at the time, Dmitry Morozov (vtol). The studio was set up and people were waiting for us. The producer called and said there is no electricity, and we can't make it today. So I decided to go home. The weather was brutal. The road usually takes me 10 minutes take almost half an hour. I was constantly falling. I was wet, cold, and bruised from falling on the ice. The wind was insane. 
When I was home, I was shaking from adrenaline and was grateful I survived. The next morning I woke up from crackling noises. I open up the shades and I saw massive branches fall from the trees one by one. The ice on the branches was too heavy. Every piece of grass becomes an ice obelisk. As terrifying the experience was, as beautiful as it looks after it was over.

Cuartero - Only One

The 90s were wild in Russia. Lada Dance goes club mode 🪩🔥 
✅ Summer nostalgia meets underground house.
✅ Early 90s Russian pop diva energy paired with a modern deep/funky house floor-filler.
Lada Dance, cult Russian pop-singer, who emerged in early 90s with her astounding voice and catchy music, released this song "Танцы у моря" (Dancing by the Sea) in 1994. I have mixed this song with More Funky by @thecheckupofficial and Argentinean DJ @alecastro 
#RemixCulture #RetroHouse

Lada Dance x The Checkup – Seaside Funk (1996/2024 Edit) / Лада Дэнс - Танцы у моря X The Checkup - More Funky Rework

A soulful rework of "Моя весна" (My Spring) by Ukrainian ensemble Vatra, originally recorded in 1978 for the musical film 'Весільний вінок, або одисея Іванка' ("Wedding Wreath, or Ivanka's Odyssey") - https://youtu.be/1Mmsw54E9ig?si=m0nvFrNJiS7Wcdaz
Blended with Giving Nothing by @sparklingattitude & incredibly powerful disco diva vocals by Dyanna Fearon @nofear-music and looped with DJPro’s soulful house pack, this version was remixed, sampled and polished in Logic Pro + WaveLab.
Includes original film samples and vocal loops ("Іванку, проснись" (Wake up, Ivanku) / "Hen-hen-hen-hoya-hen") for a dreamy blend of nostalgia and groove.

🪩 The Soul of Spring Series

Vatra x Sparkling Attitude & Dyanna Fearon - Моя весна (Soul of Spring Rework)

What happens when modern deep house meets iconic 1999 Russian electronic pop? 🪩🇷🇺

I took the groove of Rumpus  @itsrumpus & Haylee Wood @hayleewood ' 'Dance With Me' (blending both the Original and STUMP Remixes) and layered it with that unforgettable 'La-la-la-la' vocal chop from Nikita's 'Улетели навсегда'.

Started this mix live in DJ Pro, then took it into Logic Pro to strip it down and rebuild it with a brand-new, driving deep house beat and a heavy, rolling bassline. The result is a late-night club track with a massive dose of Y2K nostalgia.

Hit play, turn up the bass, and let me know what you think in the comments! 🔊

Track ID:  Old School Reinvented - Dance With Me x Улетели навсегда (Deep House Edit)

🔹 Original Tracks:
• Rumpus & Haylee Woods - Dance With Me (Original Mix & STUMP Remix)
