Stratus Dance Club '86 - '87 

You people of the 80's were Gods. There will never be anyone cooler or weirder.

Awesome thank for posting. My best friend starts at 4:43 - she past at 22 years old😭😭😭 so good to see her dancing again. She was so beautiful. RIP 🙏 Carolyn

I graduated high school in 1985. My gosh, this video brings back so many great memories of dancing in the teen dance clubs. The music was cool and so we’re the trendy styles and fashions. Oh I miss it.

This video makes me want to cry

Once upon a time there was people that go to clubs to dance.... Not a single person drinking on the dance floor. Miss the good old days 1972 boy here

This is part of what I love about watching 80's stuff . Flamboyant clothes, outrageous hairstyles and folks that couldn't dance worth a lick !

1:31 the woman in the green shirt is my mom

Im 53. I loved ABBA and then KISS in the 70s. I loved 70s disco. I loved the 80s music. And then I loved Techno and Trance throughout the 90s, 2000s. I can comfortably say that the 80s Eurobeat, Italo Disco, NRG, Freestyle and even Pop music was the best.

Привет из России!))) Супер музыка, подборка просто изумительная, а как танцуют, какие красивые девушки и молодые ребята, безумная ностальгия, прям хочется снова в 80-е,золотое время было, настроение супер, жили прекрасно, радовались многим, всем тепла, добра, любви!!! Спасибо большое, очень приятно!

Miss the 80s, a time were nobody gives a shit about you clothes, your hair, the way you look etc. And the music, best decade ever. Regards and love to all who had the honour and pleasure to live the moment.✌️💖

Man compared to today, this looks like a Parallel Universe... Cool Dance Moves, Amazing Haistyles, Smoking Cigarettes while dancing in mid of the Dancefloor, Everyone looks damn happy and carefree..

We had such good times back then. I was twenty years old and living in L.A., What could go wrong.. Lol,. The night was ours!

Simply .... The Best!.

The good old days. Back when everyone went out to have a great night dancing. Def shows here.

yeah im in this a few times as it seems to be all the footage there is mixed together. I know a lot of people in this and although yes we are pushing 50 most of us aint dead yet and still look pretty awesome . sadly some are gone victims of the times. all n all im pretty proud of these as the look was pretty DIY. a mash up of thrift store/mall shops and home craftiness and loads of dirty looks. from the "norms" to wade through. we made it up as went along and gave zero fucks what people thought. out for a good time. and dance the night away..... im at 16:03 and a couple others and yes im still a freak LOL and proud of it !!!!!!!

The world was different, the youth was different..........Millenials and the next generations will have missed out on AMAZING fun times. Not a phone in sight, enough said.

I’m from Louisiana and I got to dance in the disco’s of Germany …1988 was the best year of my life…

We should have lived this this time again ! I loved the 90's. But you wish to live that era.

I would kill to go back in time.

At this time there was still that element of surprise when being recorded on video/camera. The beauty of these people is intensified with the naturally shy and humble reaction to being on camera. Shows humility and joy is soo much more pretty than the "i belong on camera bitchface" you get today ;)

Since finding 80s dance video are pretty difficult (unless anyone wants to send me some or link me to them), I can do more remixes using video clips from 80s/early 90s anime and commercials. Would you guys like something like that?

1. style 2. Charisma 3. Humour 4. Intelligence 🥳

Good times. I miss the 80's. I remember when we were the young generation. Now we're the old generation.

i miss this liberty. this happyness. just fun. no worries. today we are like robots. now we dress almost the "same way". everyone had it's one style on that time. all this..in my opinion..

0:53 everytime i see this girl, i hit the roof

I'm feeling melancholic. Weird. I would love to say big thank you for this compilation. Love video and music. I'm sad right now in positive way. I miss everything shown in that picture- youth, joy, fun, music, people.

Girls with zero tattoos , and clubbing was awesome , I’m 58 and still love music even EDM trance and house of this era , music makes one smile . I sure had fun

I wish there was a reunion of this, would be fucking amazing

For those of you who remember, we had a great time. For everyone else, I wish you’d been there. It was so rad, and totally tubular. Great bands, peak fashion, androgynous look was the rage, women wore zoot suits, men wore crop tops, the makeup and big hair, man it was so much fun For music, check out The Cars, Gary Numan, Missing Persons, A Flock of Seagulls, Human League, The Tubes, The Fixx, Gary Wright, DEVO, Duran Duran, there are many more but those will get you started

Yep. 80's my time and decade. Also matriculated 1985. So privileged to have been a teenager in the 80's. In my heart, I still am.❤❤❤❤

4:04 lovely

5:08, Goth chicanas, I'm in heaven!!!!

Wish I was old enought to have been dancing with these people

These beutifull souls taught the world how to dance and have a good time.

Damals konnte man noch mit dem Schlafanzug in die Disco. Die Vielfalt an Kleidung, Haarstyle etc. Einfach nur cool. Ich vermisse die Zeit.

Tempi indimenticabili .....non ce ne saranno più come gli anni 80!un decennio unico ....mitico!!a livello di costumi di creatività di musica di tutto!!!

These dancers have become stars now!!

fantastic people, I started watching and I can't stop

The first track sounds like something that I can hum without knowing the song exists lol such a good track

All the chicks are so genuinely beautiful its incredible

I remember those days fondly, being the lone black student in art school partying w/my majority white peers l learned so much about style tribes , class and social privilege , that proved to be invaluable to my life's education about culture ,race, and dance music

Had to subscribe cause I watched one full video. Reminds me of my youth. Thank you so much

"it's not perfect, but whatevs" - love it

It's super Sunday worship here, on a refreshing trip back to the 1980's that's right all dialled in memories from back in the day.. press ▶ play say what ever you want to say 🎧 🎶 (((((😊))))) track 3 and 5 magic ♥ it..

5:36 When your boss attends the Christmas party.

This was a lot of fun to watch and listen to while I work. First, you chose the perfect songs; while they're all more recent, they sounded so authentic to that time. Second, I'd seen most of these clips before, but it was cool to notice quite a few that were new to me. Also, how smokin hot was the guy at 26:41? Holy shit, dude. Clark Kent, eat your heart out.

These video`s make me so happy Thank you for posting them

Funny today I kids with the same clothes, hair doo's and listening to our music! You just have to think " yeah I've been there before and it was awesome!!

bless you man

I'd love to see what these people look like today, if anyone on the interwebs was in this video, please make yourself known... :)

This has good ending vibes

9:44 so sweet!

I love this video and the way they dance. The music is awesome. New wave 💯🍺🙌🏻👌🏻

Вот это я понимаю - вот это отжиг душевный, без надрыва)))

Just noticed, but what's missing from the dancefloor? DRINKS! Not a single drink in anyone's hand. How refreshing is that to see!

The best playlist on youtube forever! + Female innocent dance style + Hair

So electric is one of a kind gem 🥰 wish there were similar songs to it

Notice how no one really cared to be recorded, even though the camcorder had a bright ass light. Also, the quality of this video is damn good considering there was no hd. This must of been a very expensive camera. Nowadays, you point a camera at someone, they freak out, as if they don't want anyone to know who they really are.

0:53 -Wow! she is so beautiful she is the most wanted in all this video reels ... Is everywhere in youtube with difference songs.

Oh the 80's, back when we were young and sexy. Now we're just sexy! 😁

That zebra girl is kinda awesome.

I need to know who the green hair is! 😅 even thought I wouldn't have been born for another 2 years after this video was made but he is so cute!!!!!

I miss this time

glory days

Lovely and nostalgic, I was born around those years though.

This is a great collection of tracks. Thank you.

обожаю подобные видео,пусть и они без оригинального звука,но все же.

We have an amazing club night like this in Boston. Same music. Samy styles. People of all ages and walks of life. No one cares, we just go to party like it 1986.

Dancing and smoking - now that's cool! If you smoked in a club now you'd get thrown out. That's progress!

Oh, I can just smell the stale beer,cigarette smoke, and hair products watching this.

Who else is watching this during Corona with one happy and one sad eye?

I am in love with a person on 9:35

My favourite girl at 9.35 ! Im in 😍

Back in the 80s, in terms of fashion, it was fucking free for all.

Your Stratus Dance Club videos are regularly posted on /wsg/ - the Worksafe GIF imageboard of 4chan. I would post links here but RU-vid will probably mark my comment as spam. If you Google "Stratus Dance Club" "/wsg/" you will find links to recent threads featuring your wonderful synthwave footage. Many thanks for your efforts and for all the nostalgic pleasure you've given us!

No cell phones, no social media.Go to the club and actually chat and be authentic.

09:35 Por lo visto han dejado escapar a un ÁNGEL del cielo...

Those 2 at 1:31 are gorgeous !!!!

What's surprising is that they're all 18-19 yr olds but some look older.

Always the best mix. Love it !🍺🍺🍺🍺👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🚬🚬🚬🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Back when dropping some X and drinking orange juice right before going into the Club! Those were some great times.

Where was Stratus? I was born in 1970. Lived in San Franisco and was a huge part of the whole club scene in the 80s- 90s. Most of the best dance clubs and moments were in SOMA of SF in the 70s ,80s and 90s. Too many to recount here, but all I can say is I miss those days more than words can say. It hit me right at the perfect age. I was 18 in 1988 and I remember the height of the industrial music and underground club scene in SOMA then and taking full advantage of the all-night and after hours parties at the Stud and the End Up and on and on and on...I would get on the dance floor to a great track like "Headhunter" at 11:00 PM and never stop dancing my friggen a** off until well after 4:00 AM, just a ball of sweat and eyeliner , long blonde hair and a greek fishermans' hat and ripped up fishnet stockings and then we'd walk home, me in my thigh high leather boots and micro mini skirt and bolero jacket ...God I miss those days...

so many people I remember...............

Dancing a bit pedestrian apart from the guy in white, but it was crowded. This should be mandatory viewing for young people who think their generation invented gender fluidity.

Good Times, Best sounds for ever !!!!

BILLIE ILLISH IS A JOKE! I went through a lot, boys and girls, despite the economy and Covid, I made it. This era was a defining moment in my life. Despite the hardships, I took it in stride. I am so happy to accomplish so much. Right now, I am dancing🕺 To my my follow New Wavers, Punks, Hip Hoppers, Maimi Sound Machine Types, keep the faith. Be strong and resilient. We made it this far. Get close to your children, friends family, and remember how far you went to get here. Those memories.....oh....those memories......🕺😜💝

anyone else in love with the girl in the devil outfit

There’s nothing saying I’m off my face on drugs like wearing sunglasses in a club 😂

Zu dem Zeitpunkt der Aufnahmen konnte derjenige nicht wissen,was für ein unwiederbringliches Zeitdokument hier entstand. War das doch für diejenigen ein wochenunendliches immer wiederkehrendes Erlebnis. Alle meine Leute seh ich in den Tänzern wieder. Schön war die Zeit. Danke für die lebendige Erinnerung.

Wonder how these folks are doing now? Did they eventually grow up and get careers and families? Are some still some holding onto the club life? Are they even still alive

12:00 Hey look who's here! Joker himself!

Good god, the last/final clip :O

I love the 80’s

excellent track choice

Great music but...this shy girl in red dress min 9.35 to 9.50 any one knows her? 😊😊😊 she was really cute. 33years ago. Damm time is flying. This is great memorial video for those people.

9:35

Danke für diese Video. Tausend Dank

War einfach nur geil.

Love their dance moves 🤩

1:34 these chicks are a meme now
