Check It Out: Animotion "Obsession" (DJ Joman Remix)

Posted on December 18 2012, 3:12pm | Author: R* L | Filed Under: Games, Music

We'd like to think that somewhere, as we speak, the offspring of 1986 Vice City's party people are at the Malibu Club fist pumping away to this.

Props to Colorado DJ Joman who gave Animotion's classic 80s pop tune "Obsession" (an airplay staple on Wave 103 on the Vice City radio dial) this dance remix updated for today's modern day clubgoers - made even better with Joman's fun video mix of it we found on YouTube that mashes up clips from the original Animotion music vid with choice scenes from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (including from the Malibu, natch). Go ahead - “Lance Vance Dance” to it.

Bonus - Also check out "Flash FM 1989" created by Akuto and Social Club member Franklean. Their imagining of what Flash FM might have sounded like 3 years after the events of Vice City, if they were to replace Toni as the station's resident deejays. Includes Franklean's original dance remix of Kenny Loggins' "I'm Free".

    I am pretty sure the guy who made the video put footage of Vice City Rage. Is it true? Either way, the music is really cool... But how do you feel about it, Rockstar? About Vice City Rage.

      @PetrovTom Hey there,
      Yes, I did use some footage from the Vice City: Rage MOD. All due credits are given in the video description. Hope you enjoyed it!

        Brilliant game, awesome song (original). But this remix is bullsh*t! Sorry, but I had to say that! They just ruined this song...
        • Sprunk95on December 19 2012, 5:26amReply
          Good morning, have an awesome day everyone :)
        • MetalMofo-Billon December 19 2012, 3:10amReply
          Don't know why you picked that one, but may I recommend a future licensing of SlyFox's Lets go All the Way!?? Love that tune. Not saying I don't recall that song from it's heyday, I do. Been very happy with the real track selections continuing with each successive GTA since Vice... I hope you enjoy it as much as we do, I don't even bother customizing the radio tracks with MP3, even though I'd pick different songs at times, from the same artists you got signed on for each game, regardless, thanks much for the audio treats!! ha ha ha Who doesn't love Blasts from the Past??!

          • Rod266on December 18 2012, 8:53pmReply
            Awesome, haha I have to admit though, it is hard to take this seriously when watching certain parts of the video but it was brilliantly mixed with some Vice City (on the RAGE engine it seems) while the song was blasting!
            • Shooting-Spreeon December 18 2012, 8:24pmReply
              In case you didn't know, Bully, Midnight Club: DUB and Red Dead Revolver are now on the PSN.
              • MetalMofo-Billon December 19 2012, 3:15amReply
                @Shooting-Spree I actually keep forgetting to get my PS2 a copy of Red Dead Revolver, since I noted a used copy at Gamestop for $20 usd. I love RDR, so I think I'll have to make the effort of picking it up, BTW, Rockstar, don't forget Red Dead fans WILL buy a PC version of RDR, In fact, having it for Xbox, I'd planned on the Game of the Year PS3 version, and any future PC outing for John Marston, don't let your fanbase down! haha

              Thanks for sharing R*! I will find a way to watch it sooner or later :)

                @qXdMbXp Sorry about that, since the video is a remix, the international settings were automatically changed, out of my control.

                @djjoman Ye, no problem, i didn't blame you at all. These inter/national restrictions are just useless 'laws'.
                I listened to it anyway, good 1 :)

                @R* I know some of you R* NYC guys and gals would appreciate this! The man himself 'Jan Hammer' made this tune on one episode of Miami Vice when Crockett and Tubbs go to New York City on a job. It has a Vice City feel to it. Enjoy!

                  @ I read Mr Don Johnson himself is on supposed hard times, like Nick Gage and a few other celebs who haven't faired well in recent years, that is a damn shame I tell ya, I loved the MVice show, watched it religiously. Rockstar, be sure to check out Shon and Hammer IIRC, the album where Jan Hammer joins up with Journey's Neal Shon!! Kick arse, as they say

                Hah greta!

                ROCKSTAR I GOT AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.

                First much respect for this game and all of course. But I wonder, was Vice City 10th anniversary Re-Designed or it's just a Adaptation to iPad directly from PC version, but now characters with fingers & better shadows?

                Thank you! And goodluck with GTA V again :) A few monthsleft.

                Cheers!

                • djjomanon December 24 2012, 3:50pmReply
                  @DarkMythHunter From what I can tell, it's adapted straight from the Xbox version, which included higher-polygon vehicle models, as well as water/blood particles that would splash on the screen. The other big difference is that the controls were completely re-defined for touch screens; you can customize which controls have their own transparent buttons on the screen. Other than that, it's the same good ol' Vice City.
