Njs4ever: The Forum

Hi Mac!

Yes this was here in Melbourne. You certainly are well more into the scene than I am now, so my memory is a little stretched :)

When I first got into NJS in the early 90's, DJ-C was the main man with DJ Swingbeat. Prior to that (and before my time) there was a club called the Copacobana ...

I do have that up-tempo remix, however there was one that had some heavy samples in it during the intro-beat and outtro's with an extended intro before the main verse.

Wow! I'm so glad I stumbled on this forum!

I'm from Melbourne Australia and have been a New Jack Swing/Swingbeat fan since the early 90's. I grew up on the stuff and it was the music that got me into DJ'ing and really defined our mis-spent youth! The under-age club and NJS movement (which was ...
