Sons De La Discothèque: Disco 101

I’ve compiled a list! A long list! A fucking long list! Of chart-toppers – ’69 through ’89, all for your listening pleasure. I hope you like it. It only took 6 days… Though this is by no means the supreme, ultimate or quintessential disco play-list. On the contrary, it’s a mere fraction of the genre’s catalogue. But what we have here is a collection (947 tracks, I think) of songs from several ‘best ever’ compilations, online polls, vintage charts and a myriad- nay, plethora of recommendations and secret weapons. It’s almost larger than, though not including the entirety of my personal collection. This is disco 101. Hits, tunes, crackers, stompers and fist-pumpers. Classic bangers and corporate bullshit – all of which achieved considerable commercial success and most of which will bring a smile to your dial: while the others leave you in awe of the glorious tragedy that was the disco era. Bookmark, visit from time to time, browse, find something worth holding on to – I know I have. I hope I’ve not left you empty-minded. But as not to leave you empty handed, I have a treat that I am very excited to give you! Creep Crawl Flash: Jacques Christo & Vladimir Christov. Fusing with hip-hop beats, samples from a long forgotten and nostalgia inducing sound that I can’t even describe but say that it makes me feel someplace and somewhen else. Their follow-up EP ‘Abroad’ is currently available for free download along with their other released material. And I’ve had it all on repeat for three days.
