Really enjoyed this. Very smooth transitions between tracks and a strong track selection.

Not so sure about ‘Subculture’ – Im a big NO fan and its not one of their strongest disco tinged records. Having said that it does work in this set really well.

Top stuff Briscoe!
Thanks
Tom

Only in this instance. Otherwise , no.
Thanks guys, wanted to do a 70s 80s styled mix based on the two Bent tracks from their Intercept album, that album was my fave and I felt disco needed another comeback.

Bent – Excercise 7
The Communards – Never Can Say Goodbye
Sparks – My Other Voice
Nina Simone – To Love Somebody (Chris Coco Mix)
Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes – Don’t Leave Me This Way (Dimitri mix)
Bent – Leaving Me
Alicia Bridges – I Love the Nightlife
Pet Shop Boys – West End Girls (Dj Hell Mix)
Goldfrapp – Ride the White Horse (Ewan Pearson Mix)
Soft Cell – Tears Run Rings
Depeche Mode – Shake The Disease
Yello – Lost Again
New Order – Subculture

I too am a big Bent fan. Sometimes struggle to fit their stuff into a mix but this does it well. And of course you can’t have enough Yello

Yo Briscoe! I have all your stuff. No, really I do 8). When you didn’t upload anything for awhile, I was beginning to worry.
Right now, I’m listening to your old mate, Lemont Blanc, The Second Ascension. Do you know if he’ll post here again? He’s another fave, and I enjoyed your combined efforts. I hope all is well with him.

BTW-you have another winner here. Not surprising though!

Sorry , been quite busy now with my son and work , and have baby number 2 on the way, so will take on a second job . I may only get in 5 mixes this year. Also, Lemont , has a heavy workload and school , he produces sports radio shows locally, but we were talking this weekend and he had a song he thought would make a good intro or outro for a mix, whenever he gets to it. In order to do mixes now I put off sleep and put my headphones on at night. The good hting is I got an ipod this year, so I can listen to far more tracks and pick out what will work with other tracks more easily. Like when I listened to the Bent album “Intercept”, I automatically thought “Never Can Say Goodbye” when listening to Excercise 7, and Leaving Me sounded like ABBA at a disco/country bar. I also hear hints of Queen and Fleetwood Mac in that album. Right now a fave album on my ipod is the self titled Alex Gopher album, very 80’s indie electronica sounding. A future mix for me will include a Rat Pack sounding jazz/crooner mix with modern artists. Thanks very much for your kind words though.
