80s Dance Classics: The Essential 80s Dance Mix Vol. 3 (2019)

This 2019 80s Dance compilation — The Essential 80s Dance Mix Volume 3 — is an Urban-flavored tribute to the decade’s funk, electro, R&B dance and early rap. Party Favorz spent two weeks selecting and editing tracks to create a two-hour mix that moves between chart pop, alternative dance touches, and the era’s club-forward grooves. The aim is a flowing DJ set that sketches how 80s dance floors shifted sonically while keeping momentum and familiarity.

Highlights include club-ready takes on Janet Jackson’s “Nasty,” the machine‑gun energy of Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock’s “It Takes Two,” and Run‑DMC’s rock‑rap fusion “Walk This Way.” The set pairs Grandmaster Flash’s “White Lines” with Herbie Hancock’s “Rock It” in an inventive mashup and also features Salt‑N‑Pepa’s “Push It” plus crowd-pleasing classics that trace rap’s early party moments and electro‑funk textures. Select mixes and ultimix edits give the compilation a consistently dancefloor-focused flow.
