Hi, I uploaded a link to short audio sample from a Russian pop song by Dmitry Malikov (1998). This exact musical section was present on a pirated cassette tape I listened to in the USSR in the early/mid 1980s (around 1983–1985). The cassette contained Western music recordings copied onto tape. When I heard this 1998 song, I recognized this section exactly from that old cassette!!! Context: I was around 13–15 years old at the time The cassette was a pirated compilation (no tracklist, mixed Western disco/pop) The source recordings were likely from the late 70s–early 80s because music from the West reached the USSR with a delay of several years. It featured a muted bass bridge in Japanese—or some pseudo-Eastern language?—but the verses were in English. The track had no title (it was on an unlabeled, home-recorded cassette), but I remembered it as "the one about Japan" for reason ( like ninja or kanagava in verses) I am trying to identify the original track this section comes from. Thanks for any help! https://voca.ro/13Bm88WltMfi submitted by /u/Alternative-Alps-970 to r/WhatsThisSong [link] [comments]

Hi folk! So -- I'm not expecting much here as I don't have a lot of information to give, but I thought I'd give it a shot. I was born in Williamsport (moved to North Carolina before the 3rd grade) and I distinctly remember a favorite hot dog place my family would stop at on trips within the state. The main unique thing about the restaurant was that they cut notches into their hot dogs, shaped them into a circle, grilled them up, and served them on a hamburger bun. I have VERY fond memories of the hot dogs -- somehow even after all these years I can still taste them. I am 50 now so we're talking quite a while ago. This would have been late 70s - early 80s then I believe. Unfortunately I can not recall exactly which location we were on the way to when we stopped there. I recall going to Knoebels Grove in Elysburg, PA, to Harrisburg, and to Wilkes Barre. I don't recall the restaurant being at our destination, but rather on the way. (but again we're talking 40+ years ago, my memory of then is not amazing) My dad tended to avoid interstates and take a lot of back roads, but I seem to remember it being on the side of what would be a "not too big" highway, or maybe a blvd. Unfortunately that's all I really have. Obviously this is not super important or anything, and I kinda doubt anyone will know what I'm talking about, but I thought I'd give it a shot. =) Thanks either way! submitted by /u/thejadestorm to r/Pennsylvania [link] [comments]

I’m trying to identify a piece of music from my childhood. I remember it as a fast, repeating 4-chord sequence: C–B–A–B over two octaves, typically in the middle register of a keyboard or piano. Tempo is about 1 second per chord. I heard this in the beginning of this song: https://open.spotify.com/intl-de/track/73HAncM6TxmbfxSI0VZIue?si=94b4005f63724630 And it immediately reminded me of a old memory of something I cant think of no matter what I try. I tried to find it with ChatGPT for like a whole hour, but no luck, so I let it compress all the informations so I can post it here: Instrumentation / feel: Orchestral: mostly strings and soft brass, no percussion at the start happy, light, slightly “floating” Simple, loop-like, very distinctive Where it appears: Not just the intro; could be during scene transitions, travel montages, or outdoor journey sequences Often accompanies nature or landscape shots: fields, skies, wide open spaces, sometimes a soft-focus or dreamy look Memory associations: Nostalgic childhood feeling The 4-chord pattern is the main trigger; other instruments or melodies usually come later Extra context: Style is like European children’s shows or stop-motion/animated films from the 70s–80s, orchestral background cues. Very simple but emotionally vivid, tied to adventure or movement scenes. Hope someone recognizes this fast, repeating orchestral 4-chord loop! Im not even sure if it is from a movie or a series its such a vague memory... submitted by /u/dinosaurier225 to r/tipofmytongue [link] [comments]

Nice little collection I collected as a child. My father is moribund so I went to visit. My mother had saved these in the attic. Fun times seeing them all again bringing back such good memories. Even found the box of go-bots submitted by /u/LaneStaleyAngryChair to r/matchbox [link] [comments]

maybe this has been discussed but i couldn't find it we had mosquito trucks that would drive through town and spray but the spray was a dense white fog and all the kids would follow the truck around and run through it. we all loved when the truck came around. I'm not sure what the spray actually was and I'm not sure i want to know lol submitted by /u/AintNobodygotime13 to r/1970s [link] [comments]

I'm a digital artist in my free time, and I finally finished this damn comic after working on it for the better part of two months. I'm hoping people here enjoy it. Being born in the ‘80s, I was beyond privileged to have grown up during the ‘90s. This was arguably the best time to be a kid. The cartoons were abundant and gross. The economy was great. The food was delicious (and terrible for your health), the music was wild, and the video games were the best. In the ‘90s, kids like me spent lots of time outside, played sports, and went camping, but when we got tired of those things (or just didn’t feel like being outside), our video games beckoned us. And you can bet we looked forward to sitting our asses down in front of our bulky CRT TVs with our sodas, snacks, and pizza as we prepared ourselves for a day or night of pure, blissful fun in a dark, cavernous living room with ugly couches, wooden wall panels, oak furniture, and earth-tone carpet to remind you that the ‘70s and ‘80s were still a very recent memory. Even people born after this period feel a particular affection for the 8- and 16-bit era of video games, and it’s easy to see why. Their relative simplicity compared to modern games is nothing short of charming and timeless, and for those of us who grew up then, the nostalgia hits super hard. Countless iconic titles hail from this period between roughly 1985 and 1995, and games from the era frequently make up the bulk of entries on peoples’ lists of the best video games ever made. Make no mistake – plenty of games from the era were total shit, and back then you had to talk to other kids who played games, read video game reviews in magazines, or rent them before you bought them if you didn’t want to risk spending your hard-earned allowance on a dud. But damn if even those garbage games don’t make me feel tingly and nostalgic for a bygone era I was so fortunate to be part of. Hell, I had a blast playing Motor City Patrol on the NES as a child after my dad bought it for me, even though it’s objectively a terrible game. One Christmas morning in the early ‘90s, when my younger brother and I shredded the wrapping paper off the biggest gift under the tree addressed to both of us, the picture of the Super Nintendo on the box revealed itself and led to a surge of excitement so strong that 7-year-old me ended up blurting “Holy shit!” in front of my mom and brother. She wasn’t happy, but at least I didn’t get grounded from playing it that day. But even if I did, I still had an NES in my room. I have endless stories I could tell from my childhood about the games I played, the people I played them with, the places I played them in, and the way it all makes me feel warm and happy inside while also making me wish I could be young again. 1995 is now thirty years ago. A few footnotes: All video games in this comic are games I’ve played and enjoyed at some point in my life, however those with white price tags on the shelves denote the games I played as a child, whether I owned them, rented them, or played them at friends’ houses. Yellow price tags represent games I discovered after childhood, primarily through emulation. This is the reason you see more platformers, racing games, and puzzle games since I was never much into RPGs or fighting games. Kmart didn’t excite me or many other kids in the way Toys ‘R’ Us did at a young age, but it was still somewhat of a juggernaut in the ‘90s and I used it as the focal store because they actually put the games on the shelves for you to pick up and look at. Toys ‘R’ Us would make you take a slip of paper from the shelf with the name of the game and bring it to the register if you wanted to buy it, or even just to look at the damn box. Where the hell is the fun in that? I was heavily into computer games as a kid and easily spent about as much time playing games on our computer as I did on the consoles. Modern PCs at the time had far superior graphics and processing power compared to consoles (and this is still generally true today), which is why I tended to prefer them for racing games in particular. My parents told me I was playing games on the computer when I was three, and by that time I had memorized and learned how to use DOS to install and launch them. submitted by /u/Regency9877 to r/retrogaming [link] [comments]
