Tank Fly Boss Walk, new from Johnny Dynell

"TANK FLY BOSS WALK"
NEW FROM JOHNNY DYNELL

The recent Netflix release of STYLE WARS (the Eighties graffiti documentary) features JOHNNY DYNELL's first record - the 1983 classic JAM HOT - throughout. This track included Johnny's signature rap, an homage to the taggers and breakdancers of that fabled era in NYC: "Tank, Fly Boss, Walk, Jam, Nitty Gritty" and the rest of the "Boys From The Big Bad City." 

The JAM HOT rap has had an extraordinary 30 years in the popular culture, including sampling by NORMAN COOK (BEATS INTERNATIONAL) on the 1990 U.K. #1 "DUB BE GOOD TO ME" and worldwide fan interpretations on YOUTUBE. Johnny's first release of 2014, TANK FLY BOSS WALK is his Hip House/Tech House reworking of the rap, out 1/15/14 on ENDLESS NIGHT MUSIC. 

TANK FLY BOSS WALK is dedicated to original JAM HOT producer MARK KAMINS, who died in 2013.

"Runway" - new Johnny Dynell on Endless Night Music

DJ JOHNNY DYNELL continues his SHWAM! 21ST CENTURY VOGUING project with RUNWAY, a new House track inspired by the classic Ballhouse category. "Runway Walking" has been a staple of late-night dance floors from the Paradise Garage through Dynell's current Sunday night at GREENHOUSE - VANDAM. New York City's reigning houses including XTRAVAGANZA, AVIANCE and NINJA work it out till morning in these clubs, and inspire music makers like Dynell to keep experimenting. RUNWAY isn't JUST for Voguers or wannabee fashion models though - it also stands as a new House track sure to be heard on a wide range of dance floors this Spring.

"Battlecat" (Cotton Club Mix) features Legend of Vogue Princess Xtravaganza

"Picture it...

A little peasant boy from the Bronx, found his way down to the pier honey,

And THERE it started!"

With these lines, legendary club icon Princess Xtravaganza began BATTLECAT, his autobiographical dance track. BATTLECAT traces how a "little peasant boy from the Bronx" became a lifelong star of the hometown dance form of Voguing, and offers advice to others who would take the runway/dancefloor. The track was co-written by Princess with two NYC gay music icons - "Gay Pimp" JONNY MCGOVERN and crooner ADAM JOSEPH.   

BATTLECAT (The Cotton Club Mix) is a brand new release and reworking of  the song by DJ JOHNNY DYNELL, out this week on Endless Night Music.  This infectious "Cotton Club Mix"  is a Tech House call to (voguing) battle, with  Dynell's electronic re-working of 1920's sounds over House of Xtravaganza chants.
