Ugh, I remember all that. I encountered the same thing from every guy I knew and met back then: Band A are fag$, Band B are a buncha fag$... now in many cases they weren't exactly wrong, hahaha... but the music was en pointe and these guys should have sat and listened to it. Heaven17, Human League, Scritti especially (best quantizing game in the business). Please DO let me know if you hatch any loops in the style of these fellows. I need them for about two albums... and please, please: keep. that. Motown. coming.
I think with new Motown we are onto something. Every single I create off one of your Motown loops is becoming a HIT.

Ahhhh. The sweet sweet Yamaha DX7. I didn't know you had one! Since you do... if you get any inspiration for some Classic Eighties Warner Bros Records style loops (Scritti Politti or Madonna), send them my way please! I'm so in the groove for some! Here's a cut-and-paste song I made with a lot of what I'm looking for...

And thank you as always. I always dig your grooves.

It's a modern in-the-box VSTi instrument only modeled to sound like a DX7. I never owned one... In the 80's I was always an analogue synth guy, myself.
I'm a huge Scritti fan. At Berklee, when Scritti was white-hot, I tried to get some of my fellow musician students interested in their music. But that whole British New Wave scene was NOT popular at Berklee... They all thought it was "faggy"-- all of it, Talk Talk, Human League, Scritti, Heaven 17, New Order, Simple Minds... all of it was "faggy" to Berklee students, and dismissed out of hand. They much preferred American artists like Steps Ahead, Anita Baker, EWF, MJ, Peabo, Whitney, etc.
And then, out of the blue, Miles Davis does his version of "Perfect Way". I felt SO-O-O vindicated by that.
