Less and more random posting nowadays, but I try to keep up the quality. Here's proper disco, right up my strasse from Chantal Curtis in 'Get another love'. Sweet strings and a perfect swing all the way through and with nice drop added to that.
Hope you dig!

Nick Straker Band - Something in the music
A big favorite from Nick Straker in 'Something in the music' which just hits the right buttons for me. Soulful, slightly on the jazzy side with some nice, trippy keyboard action and finally a great drop for the dancers. So here you go; some vintage dance music to go on your disco.
Hope you dig!

Forrrce - Keep on dubbin'
You can't go wrong with a bit of West End classics; here from Forrrce in Keep on dubbin' off the Keep on dancin' 12". Whether I wanna go for the more straight up boogie in the original or Monsieur Kevorkians dub, is a close draw. Today is Sunday, therefore we keep a bit more loose.
Hope you dig!

Gino Soccio - You move me
There's always room for a bit of boogie. Here from Gino Soccio in 'You move me' and a promo only 12". Apparently Gino is a bit of a multi-instrumentalist, playing loads of stuff and arranging and here's it's quality all through.

Tony Orlando - Don't let go
A fine blue eyed disco tune from Tony Orlando in 'Don't let go'. The drop, somewhat reminds me of Bill Wither's 'You got the stuff'. Obviously not quite as big, but still all good.

Severed Heads - We Have Come To Bless This House (remix 2)
Another banger famously broken by RW in his Sarcastic disco sets. Original synth music from 85 and Severed Heads in We Have Come To Bless This House and remix #2. This is from the Canadian Nettwerk release, and it's all a bit confusing as the track doesn't appear on all of them.
Almost 30 years, and still rips it.

Average White Band - Get it up for love
There are a few versions of this song out there. I've probably not heard them all. Tata Vega's obviously and Ned Doheny's comes to mind. Here you got the Average White Band with Ben E King, off the 'Benny and us' LP.
So if funky rock is your bag, this should be right up your strasse.

East 17 Division - Textures
Rough and deep stuff from the early 90's from East 17 Division in 'Textures'. Don't know if it breaked at the time or if it started to pick up in popularity as people like Dam Funk started to play it again?

Cleavage - Barah
Call me an old f*rt, but this is just great. Proper old school Chicago house sound, obviously heavily borne on Cymade's classic bassline. This is from Cleavage in 'Barah' and the house mix, nothing clever, just pure electronic music that has stand the test of time.
Hope you dig!

Brooklyn Dreams - Street Man
Here's 8 minutes of classic disco from Brooklyn Dreams in 'Street Man'. This rip is off a single sided 12", and I believe the original version (there's a shorter one as well).
Anyways, bit of great bread and butter material for any discerning disco dj; with enough swing, sweet strings and a classic break and build up.

Steely Dan & Charles Mann - Do it again
Two rather different versions of the same song from Steely Dan and Charles Mann in 'Do it again'. Originally written by Steely & Dan in 72' shortly followed by the Charles Mann version from 73'. If you want the full version of Steely Dan's you'll find it in the 'Four tracks from Steely Dan' 12"/EP and the Charles Mann's on his 'Say you love me too' LP.
Hope you dig!
