Designer Wayne Hemingway and his son Jack have installed one in Liverpool’s Tate Gallery and, as part of the launch event this Thursday (the 12th of November), Greg Wilson will be presenting a new two hour mix – ‘Music Played In Discotheques’ – between 7pm-9pm in a special after hours session.

He will be joined by Nandi and Christa, the Soul Train dancers, and Wayne and Jack will, of course, be there.

You and yours are invited to experience this unique happening…

Strictly Buine$$ are J-son and Funkoff, a collective of Polish Dj’s who came together to (in their own words) “to awaken from stupor the Warsaw club scene, which, to this day was dominated by shallow sounds reproduced from suspicious devices.” A great reason to get up and do something, if you ask me. Here are the guys themselves with a few words about the guest mix they sent through to me:

“We decided to treat the issue literally and prepared a 100% boogie mix containing records only from 1981-85. We wanted it to sound rather funny and being something very enjoyable while listening then serious electronic music set (some of these records sound a bit cheesy nowadays and we are aware of that). The whole mix was prepared from original records, no bootlegs, re-edits etc. 100% vinyl. Also, the mix cover refers to ‘Star Wars fever’ from early 80s when everything had to look cosmic, even LP covers…”

This mix concentrates on a sound that’s not often covered on these pages – the more break-dance orientated boogie, and also contains loads of tracks I had never heard before (which is great). Nothing cheesy about it, just a different vibe to your deeper sets, but too much deepness can get a little boring.

There are plenty ways you can hear more from the Strictly Busine$$ lads – Myspace and Soundcloud being two of them, but for now, sit back and listen to them right here…

Another month, another step closer to Christmas, and another hour spent putting together the best bits I have bought from Juno this month. This is a download chart, I am about to do a big vinyl order so I’ll do a more traditional vinyl one when that’s gone through.

The stand out thing this month really (or stand out things) were the Linkwood album on Trusme’s label, and the Balihu compilation from Danny Wang. There also seems to be more and more edits released on download as well – including the excellent H-Track edits (which I felt including here would be cheating as I got them last year really). A great month though.

Following on from Greg’s Electric Chair debut (Renaissance #8), this is a June 2006 recording of his return to the fabled Mancunian party, much mourned since its final execution in January 08. A fittingly momentous mix with which to mark the 10th Renaissance.

Ill be warming up for Kelvin Andrews and Chris Barker, which is nice because if I wasn’t playing any records, id be there regardless just to have a good old dance. The music is great, the people are great, the venue is great.

Thats about all I can say really, if you want to find out for yourself, and happen to be in or around Liverpool, come down and find out.

Simon Busby, a splendid chap from London whom I have recently been conversing with more and more often, sent this mix to me a month or so ago. Its a great mix of progressive disco, funky italo, super cool deepness and some extra added party. The only reason I haven’t uploaded it sooner for everyone is that sometimes, I really need to get my act together a bit quicker.

You can find Simon playing at his Glitterball parties in London (the next one of which is September the 19th), listen to some of his stuff on the Glitterball Soundcloud, and shout him via the exciting medium of email: simon@tigerknee.com. I really enjoyed this mix, its one Ive listened to alot over the past few weeks and its pretty much flawless. God bless you, Ron.

The second Cosmic Boogie release supplied by none other than Ashley Beedle hit all the good record shops at the weekend ans is steadily climbing up the charts.  The official blurb…

Side A: Railroad Man (Ashley Beedles Soul Train Edit)
Side AA: Everything is OK (Ashley Beedles Love Boogie Edit)

For the second in the Cosmic Boogie series we welcome on board legendary DJ and producer Ashley Beedle, and once again its time to fasten the seat-belts and continue the journey into the Funk stratosphere.

The mission begins with a fully spiritual re-working of Bill Wither’s classic ‘Railroad Man’, extended, tripped out, and guaranteed to transport you to another sonic dimension. Meanwhile on the flip side, the joyful boogie of Al Green’s ‘Everything is Ok’ is masterfully edited by Beedle into a slice of end-of-the-night euphoria which calls time on another successful journey for this exciting new imprint.

Re-mastered and cut loud for vinyl lovers, Cosmic Boogie is all about exploring a different meaning of ‘cosmic’. Long live the boogie!

You can buy the track at the following places:

Picadilly: Buy / Listen at Piccadilly Records
Juno: Buy / Listen at Juno
Phonica: Buy / Listen at Phonica

And you can, if you so wish, listen to them both in full here:

Cool in the Pool is a cool website. It says so in the title, and it backs it up in the content. I was lucky enough to do a mix for Cool in the Pool and an interview a few weeks ago, and, as Its been up for a little while I thought I would link to it from here. The mix was a more uptempo affair than usual, on purpouse. I try to play as many different things as i can (as many different things as I like), however, don’t expect a genre mish-mash of everything going just the usual groove based affair.

You can find the full mix and interview here. Thanks goes to Len for the opportunity.

I have decided to try out some of the other DJ systems besides Serato, just to see what’s what – and get a feel for what I like more. When I bought Serato a few years ago, I was told at the time that Traktor Pro was unstable and not the one to go for. Now, however, it seems things have changed. I bought myself one of these cheeky little soundcards (the advert I found on youtube is linked above), and a copy of the Traktor Pro software, and am going to give it a go and see what it gives me over Serato.

I play a lot of stuff from vinyl as well and need the ability to go back and forth between all the different formats, so I wont be able to get a good feel for the system until I have managed to try the vinyl control, but im interested to see what effects and things it gives me as I was intending to purchase a nifty little Kaoss Mini. Ill post up my findings and thoughts on the differences between the two systems when I have had some time to play.

Be nice to hear from anyone who might have used both Serato and Traktor and what the major differences are…

Good things happen through music. Its a fact. A few weeks back (in fact a month ago now) I played at the rather amazing Beat Herder festival in darkest Lancashire. It didn’t rain the whole day until about 20 minutes before my set, and then it absolutely bollocked down. Whilst trying to take refuge on the stage, Id been listening to the three DJ’s who were on before me play a weird and wonderful mix of absolutely everything, including, as it happens, a good helping of disco.

One quick conversation later, and then an exchange of emails, and I got this great mix from Tim Forrester. Tim, like me, seems to have found disco through every other form of electronic music, and still has his fingers in many pies. You can hear more from Tim on his mixuplod profile (including many tasty drum & bass mixes). So, to nicely resurrect the guest mix section properly, I’d best hand it over…

As part of the new Altiplano night that recently came to Liverpool, Kelvin Andrews sent this mix over – Shaved Guevera! Its a brilliant eclectic mix, and rightly gives an insight into the wide range of music that is played. Indeed – if you were to try and pidgeon hole this mix, what would it be…hmm…electro-latin-balearic-indian-disco-percussive-funk-mental-calmness. Its really like nothing you hear very often…

Altiplano is, as I wrote about the last one, something new for Liverpool, and something welcomed with open arms. The next night (as you might see from the rather splendid flyer above) is August the 15th and will headline with Balearic Mike from Manchester. WIth Kelvin also on the decks, along with the very talented Chris Barker, its another step in the right direction. The night will be recorded and the sets from it will be hosted here in the future – as will all the Altiplano mixes. But, for now, please enjoy the shaved one…

(I have no tracklisting at the moment, but if I ever do, it will be added)

Another outing for the pretty awesome Juno embed chart thingy. This time its all a bit mixed up with some house, disco, breakbeat funk, new stuff old stuff – exactly as a chart should be really. I know its August now, but these are the selections for last month. You can listen to any of the tracks above and buy them through Juno download. Id do one for normal vinyl as well, but I get that from all over – so really when it comes to the chart ill just stick with the downloads one. Going to try and do this as regular as possible…

Disco Deviance is a label synonymous with the party atmosphere currently sweeping the land. Now on its 9th release, and going strong, its a label that’s gaining a worldwide fanbase. Dicky Trisco, DD head honcho, kindly supplied a really good underground disco mix for the site, along with answering a number of extremely taxing questions. You can find the mix ready to be played (or downloaded) at the very bottom of this post (along with tracklisting), and you can find the interview…directly below.

Thanks for your time, DT…

Q. Disco Deviance is on its 9th release now and going strong – how did Disco Deviance originally come about?

Yes things are going well with Disco Deviance. The response has been amazing. And hopefully the series has taken this disco sound to a whole new younger audience, as well as giving the discoheads some hot new versions to play.

The label came about for a number of reasons really. Mainly it happened because about 5 years ago, I had grown tired of the direction house music was headed in, and I got right back into the disco and electrofunk sound I had loved as a kid. That was what I wanted to DJ and it inspired the music we were producing at the time, especially the Boogie Corporation stuff I was doing with my mate Calum. Things had come full circle really because it was that disco and electrofunk sound had inspired me to get into dance music in the first place and then the whole Acid House thing took off.

I was also frustrated with DJ sets that sounded the same all the way through and with dance music getting stuck in more and more specialised sub-genres. So I just wanted to play music because it was good again, whatever style it may be, which is kind of where the disco scene with pioneers like Larry Levan, David Mancuso, Tee Scott and Nicky Siano set out from in the first place.

Then I met Greg Wilson. The timing couldn’t have been better. Even though I had been playing at an eclectic disco night in Glasgow for a year or so anyway leading up to that, it was still a revelation for me. When I heard him play it was just like wow now that is DJing and that is the way I want to play music from now on. And to see such a positive reaction from the crowd was well just amazing. So he was a big influence on me and from then on and that vibe spread from the DJing into wanting to do edits and start an imprint to release that kind of sound.

Q. Are you riding high on the current disco resurgence?

Well the disco scene isn’t a massive scene really, that’s what I like about it. Ideally I like 300 people in a nice basement club who are really into the music and want to dance. But disco is certainly popular at the moment. You can see that from looking at the bestsellers charts on websites like Juno these days where people like Greg and Todd Terje, and labels like Disco Deviance and Mindless Boogie are outselling house, techno and minimal.

With the Disco Deviance releases we try very hard to keep up the standards and aren’t interested in just knocking stuff out. With each release we try to make it as difficult as possible for DJs to choose which side they want to play first. It’s all about the music and the sound of our records. And as long as we continue to find tracks we think we can release worthwhile new versions of and the response and feedback is as good as it has been, then we are happy to continue doing just that.

Q. Do you have a particular vibe that you try to stick with on the label, or is it anything goes disco?

We like the music to be good. Irresistably good. We want DJs to be desperate to play the new releases and for the records to sound amazing when played off the vinyl so that you can actually feel a reaction instantly on the dance floor. That’s the vibe we are after. So as long as release or a track has that feeling in our opinion then we will go with it.

The first release on Disco Deviance by Greg really set the standard for what was to come. One side was an amazing edit of DC La Rue which was just pure disco boogie, and then on the flip was an incredible edit of Psychokiller which just blew everyone away. Discoheads like Ashley Beedle, Prins Thomas and Pete Herbert were playing the A side and DJs like Andrew Weatherall and Optimo were all over the flip. Perfect combination. And since then that eclectic vibe has continued. Some call it a ‘Balearic’ anything goes approach, and I am happy to go with that definition, but that’s probably because I am desperate for a bloody holiday in the sun!!!

Q. What artists are part of the Disco Deviance stable?

At the moment on the label we are developing a healthy blend of more established editors like Greg Wilson, Ashley Beedle, Pete Herbert, BC etc mixed up with plenty of new faces to the disco scene like Out in the Sticks and Situation who are producing some amazing material that is getting a lot of attention.

Q. And future releases?

Well we are coming up to our 10th release so we have decided to mark the occasion by going back to our roots. So Greg Wilson has put together two wonderful new edits which we will be releasing in September. After that we have releases coming up by Reverso 68, Social Disco Club, Situation, Andrew Allsgood and a certain Cosmic Boogie which are all wicked. We are very lucky with the quality of the stuff we get sent and the people we work with.

Q. Do you run club nights as Disco Deviance, or is it strictly the label imprint?

We started out as a club night, with Greg and I playing the kind of sound we loved on a one-off kind of basis. And I suppose the imprint developed out of that. I still play with Greg at our Autodisco night which has become my main focus on the club front now. But I am about to head out to Australia in the Autumn for a Disco Deviance tour which I’m really looking forward to. And there are also plans in the pipeline for a tour of Canada and the US as well. So we are getting plenty of opportunities to spread the Disco Deviance sound. And of course Greg does a top job for the scene as a whole and seems to be a on a constant world tour at the moment spreading the disco love.

Q. What about the scene in general – opinion is split on the whole edit thing – what are your thoughts?

Yes you are right. There is a lot of anti-edit vibes kicking about, which is understandable. I think in my experience that happens when any scene grows and gets more successful. More people get into it, more releases get put out every week, more nights appear and some of the quality control drops and people start getting sick of it. Human nature really. But the good thing is that in the meantime a lot of people are coming into contact with some wonderful music. Many of them will just pass through and move on, but for some it will have a big effect upon them. I get emails all the time from people saying they have had near religious-like experiences hearing this or that DJ playing this ‘disco’ sound one night and that it just switched them onto the music and now they want more.

But on the negative side of things, I suppose the focus on edits is probably having some negative impact on the production of new dance music. People can’t keep looking backwards and just keep on reworking things. But then again it is also producing some great new producers like The Revenge who do original stuff as well and imprints like Bear Funk, Tirk and DC who are responding to the wider interest in disco influenced sounds and are making great original music.

So in the end I think people should approach it with well if it’s good then it’s good, and if it’s bad then just don’t buy it. But DJs have always made their own versions of tracks for playing out and that work on the dance floor. And that is a tradition I am fascinated by and happy to be part of.

Q. And is this vibe going to keep growing?

Good music will never die and people will keep on re-inventing things to keep things they love alive. And especially now as the technology is there to make it even easier to do just that. But quality is the thing people have to keep in the back of their minds. Just because something can be done doesn’t mean it is worth doing…

Q. About this mix – its fantastic, a real good mix of disco and old school vibes, yet feels super fresh…

Well the idea behind the mix is the same idea that is behind everything we do with Disco Deviance. Play it if it is good, try and get it all to sit together nicely and then go with it. I love DJs like Greg and the Optimo guys who take tracks you think you know and then put them in new Situations that make them seem fresh and exciting again. That idea has had a big influence on how I approach what I play. In terms of some of the tracks I play now as well I think the whole ‘dance music’ scene has now come of age which in many ways has not been a pleasant experience as it has to struggle with not being the latest fad etc But the good thing about it is that now we can start revisiting some of the trax that were massive for us during that time and they can stand or fall as ‘music’ and as ‘classic trax’ on their own. So for example in this mix The Orb track or the Blue Boy track sit alongside tracks by Stevie Wonder, Orange Juice, Rufus & Chaka Khan and the Happy Mondays…it’s a level playing field and it’s all just music now.

In fact when we were playing for Rizla recently at Rockness there was a sound engineer who was brilliant and he was getting right into our set and during it he tapped me on the shoulder and said ‘So what do you call this kind of sound?’. And I said we called it ‘disco’ and he looked confused. And I know what he meant. It’s much more than that..which is why the term ‘Balearic’ gets used cause it is more about an approach to playing than about any particular sound. In fact there was a comment on DJ History lately that summed it all up perfectly. I think it was by Bill Brewster who responded to someone who said that there wasn’t enough ‘disco’ at one of their nights by saying they were not a ‘disco night’ they were a ‘music night’. I think that is a great way to put it.

Last week (last Thursday to be precise), I was asked to do a mix and interview for the Tropical Space Machine show on deep frequency radio. The initial part of the show (the first hour and half) was a mix from Johnny Chingas, and is a fantastic laid back mix of old and new sounds in super slo mo style. Then, straight after, there is a short interview with me and a very Cosmic Boogie flavored mix. You can catch the whole show in the archives here on Deep Frequency:

The Altiplano night brought something new to Liverpool with the Idjut Boys, Kelvin Andrews and Chris Barker all weaving together to create a different soundtrack for the city. I went along and was really impressed with the vibe and general feeling of what they are trying to create, and of course, the excellent music. I admit I didn’t fully understand the sub-text at first – “the age of the club is dead, the age of the party is here”, but on walking into the room in the Novas centre, it soon became clear that this was not really a club night at all, at least, certainly not in the traditional sense. It worked perfectly. I would give a more in depth review but due to other commitments I couldn’t stay all night. I will be staying all night next time.

Because of the great music and what with it being in Liverpool, I asked Altiplano if I could host the mixes each month on this blog, and they kindly agreed. Sometimes you cannot record certain dj’s who play on the night and this rings true of the Idjut Boys, and as Kelvin played with them – the only mix available from the first one is the opening mix from Chris Barker. Its brilliant though, and more than shows the true eclectic vibe…

Big thanks to Paula, Kelvin, Chris, Phil and all others connected with the night, and I hope the next one on August 15th with Balearic Mike is as good as this one. Ill post more details about that nearer the time.
