Underground Disco Mix


I had tough time getting this mix to go, this was recorded after a third try.

Equipment used: 2 x SL 1200MK2, DJM-800, Native Instruments Traktor Scratch Pro + hardware. The mix is about half MP3's and half actual vinyl - you'll be able to tell apart based on the sound, I'm sure of it.

Anyways, here it is:
This mix is dedicated to Patrick Cowley, the legend, a pioneer, who would have produced many great electronic music albums and produced many great remixes if his life wasn't cut short by AIDS in '82.

NOTE: A lot of people say that Patrick Cowley's remix of Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" was brilliant - but it is not even close to the brilliance of his remix of Two Tons Of Fun (the last track on this mix). Its so much ahead of its time, sounds a bit like acid house. Check it out!

130 BPM / 192 kbps / 75 minutes - yeah, thats a pretty fast-paced disco mix, for sure.

Tracklisting:
01. Droids - (Do You Have) The Force [1977]
02. Disco Dream And The Androids - Dream Machine (1979)
03. Kat Mandu - The Break (1979)
04. Patrick Cowley - Sea Hunt (1981)
05. Kano - It's A War (1980)
06. Kebekelektrik - War Dance (1977)
07. Giorgio Moroder - I Wanna Rock You (1979)
08. Purple Flash - We Can Make It (1984)
09. Blush - Lift Off (1979)
10. The Immortals - The Ultimate Warlord (1979)
11. Machine - There But For The Grace Of God Go I (1979)
12. Patrick Cowley - Mind Warp (1982)
13. Two Tons Of Fun - I Got The Feeling (The Patrick Cowley Megamix) 1981


Feedback, please!!!

phil, you goddamn nailed it with this one. great tunes, good mixing, there was one transition in the beginning which was unfinished and one from mindwarp into tonnes of fun was messy but other than that it was bumping.

i liked that remix of two tonnes of fun, but mindwarp was just like the title says mindwarping. i need to track that one down, so goddamn good.

well done phil.

Thanks! I was actually more of concerned of transition between Kebekelektrik and Moroder - I really killed that one, but thats what happens when I had to do it in one go. The last transition you're talking about was almost impossible, because Two Tons Of Fun track did not have constant BPM throughout it, and it sounded like it was not beatmatched properly. And I held the loop for too long.

Anyways, I appreciate your feedback. Expect in the next couple days something in your PM box from me ...

It's like trance... only so 80s

Hmm the second track is quite nice. Not too sure about the vocals, but oh well. Third one is great too, this is quite a nice mix. Plenty more very solid tunes, quite a good mix!

I guess you like more radio-friendly disco stuff. I'll probably make a mix like that sometime.

Yeah, I feel the same about that Androids track. I wish there was an instrumental version of it - I am not a big fan of its vocals.

Done. See the first post - I added a SendSpace mirror.


--------------------------

Thanks for all the feedback so far. The main point of this mix - other than to accomodate a request, was to showcase Patrick Cowley's sound. In particularly the last two tracks.

bump


I've been rocking this set out alot recently. Some of the mixing is harsh but that can only be explained due to most of the music not having very easy endings to mix out too. Overall, I think you did a solid job, mate. I wouldn't expect disco to sound so..."spacey" at times. But loving it, anyway.

Would love to hear you do a new wave set sometime.
