The compilations that I post here were originally made for my own enjoyment and that of my family, but out of the generosity of my heart I want to share them with the world ! They are made with tracks from my own vinyl collection but also from tracks that I've collected trough the years from all over the internet. It's impossible to credit the original poster, but consider yourself utterly thanked.

Welcome to MM’s Popcorn Party

 In the ‘60s and ‘70s, a curious music scene developed in the dancehalls in Belgium. It was a mixture of obscure sixties soul, ska, calypso, chachacha, loungy instrumentals, … All driven by this slow or medium recognizable tempo, ideal for dancing a slow swing. The Belgian Popcorn was born.
