I remember this video from New York Hot Tracks in the early/mid '80s but forgot the title and artist not long after. It made such an impression on me that later, when I wrote a letter to the syndicated American Dance Trax radio show, I asked about this video, and luckily, they knew right away which song I was talking about! I've never forgotten it since! I love the electro synth-pop flavored with freestyle beats!

I actually remember this song playing while I was at the arcade playing those exact same video games! 🎮

I’m 52 and have not heard this song in..my god like 30 plus years! Fuckin dope stuff! My cousin who was a year older made fun of me for liking this song.

[rayybenecydhernandez]

This dude is like forgotten but he was killing it ugly in the mid 80s..He was a monster..

[Jitsover]

Timeless classic. I miss the 80's arcade/mall lifestyle. That was our Facebook. If you weren't at the arcade or the mall you didn't exist socially.

I’m 41 now and was into dance music from the late 80s but only discovered John within the last year. This track vocal club mix and Move (Landlord house mix) are absolutely great tracks, I play them on my sets and play them at home, even my young kids love them! He was a musical genius, really pioneering for his time by the sounds of these tracks.
