With A Little Help From My Friends – I

For the past some moths I have marveled at all the many talented edit artists that not only sharing their talents, but also are hard at work keeping music of by gone eras alive and well. To support their efforts I thought of putting together a few mixes highlighting various artists’ work. Kicking things off, this set is built around the work of Disco Tech, a Stockholm, Sweden, based producer and dj, with an obvious ear for really classic tunes.

Have a listen. With a little help from my friends, this set of tunes brings it home…

Jean Carne – My Love Don’t Come Easy (Disco Tech Edit)
The Chi-Lites – Inner City Blues (Disco Tech  Edit)
Al Green – The Letter (Disco Tech  Edit)
Curtis Mayfield – Trippin Out (Disco Tech  Edit)
Freddie Scott – Got What I Need (Disco Tech  Edit)
Carla Thomas & Otis Redding – Tramp (Hawk Edits Reboot)
Bill Withers – Grandma’s Hands (Disco Tech  Edit)
George McCrae – Can’t Leave You Alone (Scratchandsniff‘s Extended Re-Rub)
Sylvia Robinson – Sweet Stuff (Disco Tech  Edit)
Al Green – Light My Fire (Scratchandsniff‘s Extended Re-Rub)
Frankie Valli – Grease (Disco Tech Edit)
The Equals – Funky Like a Train (Disco Tech  Edit)
Graham Nash – Chicago (Disco Tech  Edit)
Gwen McCrae – Let’s Straight It Out (Disco Tech  Edit)
Benjamin “Benny” Latimore – It Ain’t Where You Been (Disco Tech  Edit)
Ann Peebles – I’m Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down (Cosmic Boogie Edit)

Too Hot

September 21, 2011

Not too long ago, to get away from the cool Pacific Northwest summer, I took a trip to Kauai, Hawaii.  In all it was a lovely affair, lazing about in the sand and water. While enjoying the sun and warmth, it did get me thinking (what doesn’t?). On the flight over I had read, in the in-flight magazine, that any plant that does not require a cold snap will grow on the island, and hence, bringing non-native spices can be really disruptive to the local flora. After a week of enjoying the island (truly, you should try it) I did come to the conclusion that; sure, it is lovely here, but I too require a cold snap.

As you can see, my lady also realized something.  While on the island, sunscreen needs to be re-applied regularly.

Memoryman AKA Uovo – Sleepless Disco Night (Nicholas Remix)
Homework – Whipped Cream
Joseph Terruel – It’s Only Love Doing Its Thing
The Owl – Feel Good (Original Mix)
78 Edits – One Way
Odyssey – Hang Together (Keep Schtum Re-Edit)
Billy Ocean – European Queen (Rayko Remix)
Julien Clerc – Mangos (JT Edit)
George Benson – On Broadway (JF EDIT)
Isaac Hayes – That Loving Feeling (DJ Steef Edit)
Kastil – Testify For You

Saturday Night Special

August 20, 2011

I trotted on the avenue my heart opened to the unknowns
I wanted to say hello to no matter whom
No matter whom, it could be you, I'd said anything to you
It was enough to speak to you, just to calm down.

You said to me "I was pinned in a basement with fools
Who live guitar-in-hand from dusk till dawn"
Then I accompanied you, one sang, one danced
Any one who did not even think of embracing oneself

Yesterday evening two unknowns and this morning on the avenue
Two in love all dazed by the long night
And to the Star of Concord, form an orchestra with thousand cords
All the birds at day-break singing for the love 

Luther Vandross - Never Too Much (Scratchandsniff's Extended Re-Rub)
Lionel Richie - Love Will Find A Way (Ken At Work Remix)
Bobby Womack - You're Welcome, Stop On By (Beaten Space Probe Re-Edit)
Barry White -  It's Ecstacy... (Disco Syndicate's Uptempo Dance Redo)
Billy ocean - Nights (Feel Like Getting Down) [Maily Edit]
Michael Wycoff - Looking Up to You (Joe Malenda TEDJE Edit)
George Benson - What's On Your Mind (soho808 Something's Going On Edit)
Kool & The Gang - Too Hot (Scratchandsniff's extended re-rub)
Rick Ashley - Never Gonna Give You Up (Drop Out Orchestra Dub)
Teddy Pendergrass - Looks Like Ted (B11s Edit)
Rolf Bergström & Pyhimykset - Rokkibaby (2 Many GT's Wappubaby Edit)
Joe Dassin - Les Champs-Elysées
