just in case you guys haven’t listened to this yet, this is some new Onra!
Yes, you just read that right.
Onra is back with some 90s R&B flair.

The Whitest Boy Alive: Golden Cage (Fred Falke remix)
-a classic fav.
Among the sincere regrets of my life is that I was not 21 or 22 in 1977, when this monster hit dance floors for the first time. To be in a disco the first time we all heard “I Feel Love” — that undulating synth, matched to the beat of our hearts, surging ahead while Donna Summer cooed in the distance? We would have lost our minds.
“I Will Survive” is a great song that lives on only as kitsch, but “I Feel Love” is the real deal. I’m not sure any song from the disco era still sounds as urgent today; there’s a reason why Madonna mashed it up with “Future Lovers” for the opening performance of her Confessions on a Dance Floor tour. More than 30 years after it came out, “I Feel Love” still felt like the future.
Here’s David Bowie: “One day in Berlin … [Brian] Eno came running in and said, ‘I have heard the sound of the future.’ … he puts on ‘I Feel Love’, by Donna Summer … He said, ‘This is it, look no further. This single is going to change the sound of club music for the next fifteen years.’ Which was more or less right.”
RIP.

Of course if there is a Google Maps bug in Berlin data, it’s to replace a street name with a name of a record store.
