Fantastic mix, I was thinking of putting one of these together for my own enjoyment but it would be more mainstream than this i.e funk hits from the 80s. Thanks for opening my ears to some great tunes. That opening track is gorgeous. cheers hp
This was a combo of blog digging and my collection of disco stuff at home – you’re right though – these have been caned sample wise – some good comps to check are jumpin’ vols 1 and 2 and the sampled series.
Smoothly put together and some good tunage. Reminds me in style of some of those Dimitri from Paris compilations. The current Mrs Edward will like this mix I reckon.
I had one of those wierd “hearing the original sample for the first time” moments with the track that was used in Flash Fix. (Like when you hear him say “We are the music makers, we are the dreamers of the dreams” in Charlie and The Chocolate Factory). Anyway, I digress. Nice stuff as always. I’ve no idea how you crank them out so regularly while still keeping the quality up.
Disco isn’t a genre that I’d usually search out, BUT I do generally enjoy it when I hear it and there is quite a lot of disco that is like uptempo soul, and that’s always gonna be a good thing.
Overall I enjoyed it, preferred the chunky funky disco tunes but all of the tunes were good.
Hi Len,
This has been in my headphones for the last two weeks! It’s been keeping me upbeat while the day job has gone oh-so manic! As always great selection – Have always loved the ‘leopard skin’ Danny Krivit’s Love is the message. But a lot here that’s new. Cheers again – I love my boogie bass sounds!
Another keeper! I can see I’m going have to increase my hard drive with all the quality about!
Cheers SAT – nice one for the vibes – danny krivit is the man! I’ve just exported all my mixes to the external 250gb drive – got a bit of room to play with now.
Soz Len, thought I had commented on this one – but obviously I hadn’t.
Well, gave this one a blast the other day and it certainly lifted the gloomy clouds over Devizes. Have to admit, I’m a sucker for disco so this went down a treat!
There were a few tracks (P-Funk especially) which I have heard in other mixes but never been able to establish who they were by so that was cool. Its also good to hear where a lot of the samples used in house music today originated from and I find that often the originals are best.
All in all a fluent and highly dance able mix. Thanks! 😀
G’day!!!! Cause we’re so far behind down under, stuck in the c19th, you won’t believe this – but this is the first time that I’ve downloaded music that’s not Thomas the tank/Bob the Builder and hey I LOVED IT!!!!
Now is the winter of our discotheque

Wasn’t really in the disco mood this afternoon, but the salsoul orchestra sucked me in, and I’m glad it did.
This really lifted my afternoon.
Fantastic mix, I was thinking of putting one of these together for my own enjoyment but it would be more mainstream than this i.e funk hits from the 80s. Thanks for opening my ears to some great tunes. That opening track is gorgeous. cheers hp
cheers fellas
glad you enjoyed – it was fun to make and i think the tunes all stand up today – disco gets a bad rep; the good stuff is superb! 😀
that p funk all stars tune’s thee fuckin’ bomb… and the same goes to the tune that comes in at 18:23… my kinda groove
Hydraulic pump is a killer track – sampled by fix ‘flash’ – fuckin’ love it! 😀
Also apologies everyone for sticking on daft punk ‘voyager’ again – it fitted and I can’t get enough of it
Wow! Always look forward to your mixes. this one is awesome as usual. What killer disco tracks, many of which have been sampled to death. Inspiring.
Thanks Briscoe – appreciated! 😀

Oh dear Mr. Len, that was groovier than a pair of courduroy trousers!!!
Proper lush, as we are apt to say in these parts.
Cheers kidda, great mix.
Us old farts appreciate a little old school every now n again ;-/
🙂
cheers mate! 🙂
love a bit of disco me – gets a bad rep, but we know that you got to get down to the groove
ps bong – the other tune you were digging is mfsb – sampled by busta rhymes ‘everybody come on’ i think amongst others – tune! 😀
You’ve got more genres than Waterstones!

haha – my record library was taking on waterstones sized proportions at one point!
cheers ed, glad you liked the mix – it was a long standing ambition to do something like this and i’m dead pleased with how it turned out.
Sorry for the delay giving you props for this one, but I’ve been stuck inside a glitter ball.
Absolutely awesome mix mate, and I can’t take the all credit for the title – I think it’s from an old Robert Wyatt lyric.
shouldnt you be on holiday?
nice one mate – see you in the week hopefully! 😀
Gonna get on this soon… I tried to d/l it and it took three hours to then tell me that the connection was lost!! aarrrggghhhh
no worries man- am interested in what you think!
flaky connections do my head right in 🙁

cheers stu – not everyone’s bag i know – just trying to open a few ears an all that – hope i succeeded! 🙂

nice one tom! seemed the ‘more mature’ members of the b00m were feeling this – see you for a dance in the sheltered accomodation in 30 years time mate
Lol, possibly, although I hope when I reach 51 I’ve got a bit of ‘go’ left in me…:D
