Comment on Fear of 'being cringe' blamed for lack of dancing on nightclub dance floors

Shakers.
Amazingly this song reached #1 in South Africa? No vocals and syncopated rhythm.
This guy (with a Greek Father) was huge but died young. Here is another track of his.

Yes that’s probably true, I guess from the genres I am coming from I mentally associate the word “piano” with a specific sound emulating that of a non-electric/traditional piano with some added reverb and sometimes delay.

In finding this Rhodes piano video for you I finally realise that the very low bass notes have a grungey tone (clipping distortion). I even played one of these weekly at my music teacher’s place but did not notice.
