Thursday, 31 October, 2024
Welcome to another hour of disco, mixed with love in London. And 40 years ago this month Wham! released "Everything she wants" which starts this set with with the authentically updated Dolls Combers Tribute Remix. As far as we know George Michael did everything himself on the original, playing all the instruments and singing all the vocals, so technically it's not a Wham! track at all. Other tracks featured in this mix are Larry Funk's "Together", Nicole's "Rock the house", A-Trak's "Like I said" (which I might have changed a bit ;-), Stephane Deschezeaux, and DJ B1's "Lovin' you" along with some delicious edits of chunky disco treats. Enjoy! XX F*Here's the full track list:1 | Wham! | Everything she wants (Dolls Combers Tribute Remix)2 | Bee Gees | Night fever (S. Nolla & Dr. Parellada Unreleased Mix)3 | Queen and Gino Soccio | Try it out (David Kust Bites The Dust Remix)4 | Change | Change of heart (Fingerman's Extended Edit)5 | The Whispers | And the beat goes on (Marcus Bootleg)6 | Franki Valli | Grease (S R Edits Rework)7 | Larry Funk | Together (Original Mix)8 | Nicole | Rock the house (Michael Gray Vocal Extended Remix)9 | A-Trak | Like I said (F*Monday Bootleg)10 | Ron Carroll | Soul train (R C's Re-Edit)11 | Stephane Deschezeaux, DJ B1 | Lovin' you (Original Mix)12 | Aretha Franklin | Get it right (Ced ReWork)And here's a link to the Spotify playlist. Some of the edits and remixes I've used may not be widely available.For a while I've been thinking about creating a history of disco mix, picking out some of the great tracks that symbolise the disco era. Meanwhile I recommend listening to Steve Greenberg's podcast "Speed of sound". Four of his podcast's episodes take you on a fascinating musical journey from Nazi occupied Paris to disco dominating American Top 40 radio. Definitely worth downloading.And if you want more, subscribe to Discodave's Spotify playlist, The Disco Files 1970-78, which includes all the tracks he could find from Vince Aletti's book "The Disco Files".
