Power 96 8 O'Clock Powermix by Lazaro Mendez (aug 88)

- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- When I was 18 I spend my first holiday outside Europe, in Florida. During those 2 weeks I recorded some radio shows. I remember I recorded 2 "8 o'clock powermixes" on Power96, one by Phil Jones and one by Lazero Mendez. I played them for years on my walkman. Unfortunately I lost the Phil Jones tape. I've copied the DJ Laz tape to my computer and it's really one of the best live mixes I have ever heard,
If I remember correctly he used 6 turntables for this mix. In the 54 minutes he mixed over 60 songs. I have identified almost 40 tracks. A lot of very short fragments have been used, almost impossible to identify.
In the first 15 minutes (as posted here on RUclips) are these songs:
1 . Teaz 2 Pleaz - I want u
2 . Beat Club - Security
3 . Hashim - Al-Naafiysh (The Soul)
4 . Sa-Fire - Boy, i've been told
5 . Missy Mist - Make it mellow
6 . Dynamix II - Feel the bass
In the full version I've found these extra tracks:
Hashim - We're rocking the planet (beat)
TKA - X-ray vision
2 Live Crew - Move somethin'
Samantha Fox - Naughty Girls (Need Love Too)
Stevie B - Dreamin' of love
Tramaine Hawkins - Fall down (on me)
Earth, Wind & Fire - Let's groove
Heatwave - Boogie nights
Lionel Richie - All night long
Public Enemy - Rebel without a pause
Debbie Gibson - Out of the blue
Bon Jovi - You give love a bad name
Dino - Summergirls
2 Live Crew - H,B & C
Taylor Dane - Tell it to my heart
Information Society - Running
Taylor Dane - Prove your love
Girls talkin sh(*)t - Juice it
Cybotron - Clear
Afro-Rican - Give it all you got (doggie style)
LA Dream Team - The dream team is in the house
The Voice In Fashion - Give me your love
Vicious Bass - Shake that thang
JDC - Jealous girls
Twilight 22 - Electric Kingdom
MC Shy D - I wanna dance
Keith Jones - Get retarded
Fresh Celeste & M-4 Sers - Give It All To Me
JJ Fad - Supersonic
2 Live Crew - Get it girl
The Egyptian Lover - Egypt, Egypt
Beatmaster Clay D & DJ Magic Mike - Rock The House
I hope someone can help me to identify the rest. And I am searching for more Powermixes from that time...
Here you can listen to the complete mix:

for those of us who grew up in south FL NO one better than Lazaro Mendez
Yo estaba en 6 grado en la Escuela apenas 12 años y me busque una Antena de Flecha para FM y un Buster para elevar la señal de power 96 FM de Miami Florida yo los escuchaba desde Cabaiguan Sancti Spiritus en el centro de Cuba con un Radio Selena 210 eran muy buenos para captar está señal de FM saludos 👍👍
I was living in Havana but in the roof of the building where I lived I had my antenna to get the fm band on my recorder player. I was 12 yrs old and american radio stations changed my lifestyle and mind. Never ever again I listened communist radio stations from Cuba. I miss those times when power 96 and Y100 mixed live from different clubs in Miami.
Same here! Grew up in Camaguey, and still remember the antenna I built from scratch to be able to listen to P96! I could say this radio station in the early 90s changed a lot of people’s lives, especially where we come from. It did to me too so I don’t blame you at all!
@@daneelfg1976 Viva la gusanera 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Así mismo hacia yo y mis socios del barrio...y todos los viernes y sábados grababamos lo último que sacaban.
@@damiandelcampo5587 Jajaaja , qué tiempos. A grabar las carguitas de la FM 🤣😂😂
Buenos días a todos, yo en aquel entonces tenía 17 años, y estaba en secundaria básica, octavo y noveno grado, yo y unos socios en cuba , preparabamos antenas de FM, comprendidas entre las bandas 88 a 108 megaher, nos especialisabamos en antenas, nos fijamos por manuales americanos de antenas, para que quedará perfecta , la antena, y después hacia los los booster,o amplificador de RF para mejorar el nivel de señal, y entonces con lo que temíamos, algunos tenian grabadoras japonesas y grabavamos en cinta las carguitas, así le decíamos a ese tipo de música, después de casi 40 años, nos enteramos que se llama Freestyle, increíble, todavía nos encanta ese género de música, pero ese tiempos no volverán, volverán, nos fugamos de la escuela de secundaria para ir a escuchar música a la casa de unos socios y amigos que tenían antenas también y grababan las canciones en una grabadora de sinta...
Never heard any other radio stations like Power96 and y-100 in the 80's and 90's. Different time and sound. It was a blessing to have grown up with that. 😊
It was an awesome time. South Florida in the 80s and 90s can never be replicated.
As a kid living in Fl in the late 80s and early-mid 90s was such a great time; miss those days.
Esto es música. La encontré hoy mi preferida .No paren .candela.los sigo todos los dias.desde cuba .ya no hacen falta antenas.esto si es lo mejor .No se me olvida .pa ser 96 .de los 80 y 90 .estoy con .ustedes .tiren .paca
.desde.cuba.acere.fuego..Esto es musica.
Ok bro .
Lázaro Méndez y Tony el Tiger los mejores.desde cuba un abrazo.
Lots of Kraftwerk samples in there between songs and backing. Another guy here who grew up in South Florida and DJ Laz is an absolute legend!
Fire! Listening with my parents right now haha! I was born in 1990 but this music runs in my blood.
Ahhh I was a teen back then in South Florida and LOVED Power 96. This takes me back
86' blazer, 4 punch 12's, alpine(tape deck) cruising coconut grove, downtown Miami , setting off alarms in the bayside parking lot! GOOD TIMES:)
Dearn! You definitely took us back in time there!! I remember my white IROC-Z lowered to the floor with beautiful Hammer wheels and low profiles. And of course, cruising down Hialeah's 49th street with the base pomping and loosing up all of my Camaro's screws!
Very Talented ,, those were the Great Days of Radio absolutely!!
I am from South Africa and got a mix tape with an episode of Power Mix 96 in 88 with DJ Laz when I was 13. That was the best summer ever! Played this tape to death. Best time of my life!
Miami forever!!!!!!
I went to Miami every summer for a month starting when I was 12 yrs old (1984) till my mid 20's. Swam for Miami Shores all summer in 1990 and visited several times a year through the mid 2000's. NOTHING beat turning on Power 96. DJ's by the pool. Cruising A1A listening to power 96 was as good or better than being in a great dance club and rolling. Greatest time for music ever!
Greatest memories growing up in the 305!!
2 years before I moved to Fort Lauderdale... but when I first heard the power mix... I was hooked!
Damn takes me back. 80's was the best. Freestyle for life.
This brings back some good memories in the 305.
I from Habana Cuba i am 43 years old i grow up with this music.thanks for this memories.Long live to old shcoooooool !!!!!!!!!
Laz and Tony the Tiger were magic
I LOVED POWER 96 AND HOT 105 ,IM 43 NOW AND I STILL LISTEN HOT 105 IN CUBA...LOVE U DJ LAZ
Freestyle never die!!! i still remember when i used to hear mixes from dj Lazaro mendez in Havana Cuba!!!
I don’t recall Laz mixing in Cuba!
jajajajajaaaa !!Good joke!! he really mean to say listening from Havana ajajajaaa! If Dj Laz would mix only one second of audio in havana that would be an instant end of his carreer.
I also remember that, with a russian Selena FM radio and a yagui. FM antenna that my father bought for me, those days were the best, lucky for us in Havana that Power 96 was strong enough to be received there. Thank s father for give me the oportunity to enjoy that music.
Little Havana
🇨🇺
Born and Raised in South Floroda. Started at Rollaway Skateway DJing at 13 then the clubs.Laz, myself and Bobby Smith hungout. I miss those days. Always trying to get the newest music first before the station played it. Spinnin live at clubs...Facade, Spinners, Ricks Bar, Casanova's, Deco's...The list goes on. Miss you my DJ friend!
Rollaway!!! Holy shit, haven't heard that name in ages. Every weekend I was there.

I miss all this music and power hours!! 96.5 was the best... I lived in Naples and was lucky enough to be able to pick this channel up! Even better when I was over in Miami... DJ LAZ and Freestyle forever!!!
I actually remember listening to this mix live...
Engel Engle I remember as well. I was driving to China Club in Miami listening to this! Daaaaaang!
Yo escuchaba está Radio power 96 desde el centro Cuba me trae recuerdos de mi juventud y las antenas de FM para captar la señal de la 96
I miss my Power 96, since I moved.They really know how to keep their audiences entertained.
they have changed so much. you wouldn`t recognize it today if you listened on line. i been in south florida my whole life. i was born in the 80s. these days power 96 is nothing like what it used to be...
Not now 😔
DJ LAZ NEEDS TO GET BACK ON THE AIR !!!!!!!!!!!!
POWER 96 NEED'S TO TIGHTEN UP AND GET ON THE BALL..... MIAMI TAKE OVER IS ONLY WITH DJ.LAZ ..
1 word AWESOME !!!
blast from the past...we live in Tampa and had to pay $5 to a guy that came down from Miami every Monday so we could jam out to the latest from Laz and the gang...the BEST !!! THANK YOU
All I can say those long days that we spent in those crazy MIAMI traffic DJ LAZ made all of us get out of the car just to dance it off. Laz you made Power96, you will never be forgotten. Thank you for that personal favor you did for me on the radio. Thank you brother Lots of love
I remember being a teenager and going skating to this music.
Alot of radio stations had no clue about these DJ type sets, mixxes that the big cities were doing like this, And alot still dont.
Yes, the best mix shows were basically Miami, New York, Chicago, Houston, Honolulu, & LA, otherwise it was spotty to hear a good mix show elsewhere around the U.S.
@@gators0972 true/ miami had the best
Miami powerhouse mix masters since the 80s Leo Vela and DJ Laz,,,,,,,,,pure Miami when pure was all there was
Thank you for taking the time to record them. I miss these days and they are nice memories in Dade County, Florida!

I'm like 93 years ago..
It's great to hear such high quality retro mixes from Power 96. I was lucky enough to have a very good external antenna that I hooked up to my receiver and was able to pick up Power 96 pretty clear at night and kinda clear during the daytime here in Port Charlotte, FL.
Doing Home work listening to this back then. 35 years WOW.
I have the complete mix for this night, recorder in 1988, awesome!
I also have it and I put the full version on SoundCloud, see the link in the description.
wow stubling across this music brings back memories....lived in pembroke pines in 1987 when it was brand new development. probably crap now....went to miramar high school...ahhhh the days...
Thank you for the upload! As a native of PB County & someone who had their child in Miami in '93 (unfortunately there during Hurricane Andrew) I was 15 when this came out! I literally grew up on Power 96, Hot 105 & Y-100 & got to see most of these singers in the local clubs :)
😘😁@..
Jenna Katy we’ve might have bumped into each other at the local club scene! 😝 I was everywhere in Miami! Did you ever go to China Club in Miami Beach?

Thank you. Brings back good memories. DJ.Laz left power96 a few years ago. Bo Griffin past away in 2010 from stomach cancer.
Dingle Berry that makes me sad! Bo was a great lady whom I met and laughed with a few times.
The best DJ that l know
Crusin the Beach Ft.Lauderdale,FL in the 80s! Windows down and Bikinis around!
This was about two years after they killed the strip. When they added the dividers
well at one point or another we had to cross each other there in those years, i had a black Cutlass with some 15s in the back, and did some shit there back then.
Thanks for the memories ... I miss DJ Laz and Cox on the radio !

Wow I was there growing up and it was the best. J.stephens
Hot mix!
Awesome mix. Homestead Senior HS class of 88. Listening during COVID.
DJ Laz is still mixing but at a different station. I grew up in Miami and have great memories of DJ Laz “descargas” unloads! I appreciate you sharing. I left Miami back in 1993!
Wow You brought this back. Dj Laz!!!!
I am blessed to have been born and raised in Fort Lauderdale. I miss these days.
He could and actually did solo sessions with 6 turntables during his days at Hot 105, he shared his 6 turntable mixes with another DJ who I am close friends with, and do remember visiting my friend at Hot 105 when they first set up shop on Alhambra Circle in Coral Gables Fla, during my visits I did see the Laz spin 6 turntables all by himself without a problem even tho it was a two DJ space, all skills non of the software or computers involved like they have now, had a great mentor in Rosenberg.
This just brings me back! Old School indeed!
Grew up on Power 96. Shits in my blood.
It was 12 turntables. I ran into DJ Laz a few years back at Best Buy, my buddy was friends with him back in the early 80s, before he got famous. I never knew he had a bad limp, big tall guy...
Andrew Sep “the pimp with the limp”?
Awesome songs. Thank you for bringing back good all memories.
Crap!! Reminds me of the freaking good old dayz never to comeback!! I had the privilege to have been a DJ in the 80's living in Hialeah, and of course, attending Hialeah High home of the T-Breds!!! Open house parties ruled our weekends, and I would give anything to go back in time and relive the experience!! 💃🕺🎶🎵🎼🎛🎚🔊
Tony the Tiger is such a nice guy. Or as I always called him Mr Tiger.
I'll never forget the Baja Beach Club days. Asked my boy who the dude walking around with the limp was and he says, that's Laz, the Pimp with the Limp! I'm like... derrrrrrr... Man I miss those days!
i used to hang out with laz in the 90s, in hollywood fl,.
and calle ocho,. and the night clubs, saw him recently with the concert we did in miami free style , at bank united , he remeberd me,.
dj tonto,.
I miss Hollywood. One of my favorite beaches. Crazy that so many people hung out in Hollywood. Even Hollywood Squares was recorded there.
great songs good dj back in the 80´s i´m from Nicaragua and it brings me memories get it boy
we were recording these sets with cassette tapes man WOOO!!
I remember the days when Power 96 mixes and South Florida were soOoOOooo fresh. Thanks for sharing this.
todo moñero le debe la vida a la power 96
wow 22 years and he was the mixer from the 80's so that is awesome *because i never knew and i was born 1997 jan 31st*
Great mix thanks for sharing!
Listening with my yagui and a Selena (russian radio), from La Vibora, Habana. Best time ever no money but no LGTB, no BLM or any of today ah……t, just simple live.
🙏🏾
Good old time West Palm Beach, Party on
I remember this in south FL back in the 80's growing up I was 20 ad he was the best
What a great post! No one spun freestyle as good as DJ Laz did back then....Teaz-2-Pleaz were huge all over Miami that year, I must have seen those girls a million times.
Absolutely love this .....takes me back to the best days ....this was true mixing
23 YEARS AGO FROM NOW!
Fort Lauderdale right here, 84 cardinal gibonds grad, glad i got to live that era.............times we lived and hope some day i will be able to relive, waiting for real time travel WHATS UP WITH DAAAAAT ????????????????
I was jammin to this mix the night it aired, me and my boys were cruising the grove with the Fosgate amps and 15s in them IRocs , Vettes and Nissan Zs
Would listen to this station the entire time I was in Florida.
power 96 was home
Mine were all recorded on cassettes that didn't last in the South FLorida climate with all the replays lol
1st Good job to renexoox and Thanks for this upload. Today renexoox you probably would not like Power 96 much. They changed thier programing some and got heavy into modern hip hop that to me is crap. I stopped listening in 2005-06 when that horrible Lucy Lopez started talking on the radio. I started listening in 88 and damn were they awesome!!! 88-92 wow did they play a lot or a ton of Freestyle music and some old school hip hop the best hip hop for me. Then came the dance era mid 90's and they were amazing then as well. Still with the mixes on friday nights and rush hour. They had lots of DJ's Laz was not the only one. All thier mixing DJ's were amazing. Late 90's early 2000's the bad ass dance/House/Trance music was in full swing. Good times:) They got lots of stuff from Europe and some local stuff that was very good. Unfortunately for me at least their programing took a nose dive mid 2000's. But thanks for the memory of the glory days of Power 96! Man did they start Strong in the Miami scene then 1986. Now my thing is XM radio. BPM to get decent dance/house like music. The things Power 96 got away from.
I started listening in 1986 and stopped around the same time as you. If I wanted to hear the same couple of songs played I'd listen to another station. They sold out for sure!
Yo my words exactly... I think what killed power as we new it was Party 931 coming on... they went straight hiphop after that...
Karl Sjoblom No all the radio stations were all bought out by Clear Channel ... thats why you hear all the same music on all the stations
My tapes from 85 thru 88 still jam. Love the stock market crash babbling by Phil Money Jones.
WOW!!! Thank you so much!!! I used to live in Broward County and grew up listening to Power 96 back in the day. Freestyle, Hip-hop, and 2 Live Crew Baby.
I was born and raised in Stuart, Fl.Had a Grundig short wave radio,could pick up Power 96.
Wow! Thanks for this!!! I love reliving my youth!!!
