MORNING MUSIC, SLEAZE, THE SAINT, THE TROCADERO TRANSFER AND HORSE MEAT DISCO



I still have a few more morning music selections in my Ebay store. You can check them out by clicking the title of this post. I'll be adding more soon.

In the meantime the guys at Horse Meat Disco are dedicating one side of their latest compilation to the genre of sleaze. A beautiful sound made legendary at The Saint and The Trocadero Transfer and at beach resorts like Fire Island and Provincetown it's a sound that is becoming harder and harder to here at parties. Hopefully their compilation will bring attention to this much loved genre.

The entire second disc of Horse Meat Disco's latest mix on Strut focuses on the after-hours disco sub-genre known as Sleaze, made popular at seminal NYC night clubs like The Saint. Not familiar? See what the guys have to say below in an interview with the mighty djhistory.com. Both discs of HMD III are likely to soundtrack more than a few parties this summer.

Wham- "Love Maker" (Horse Meat Disco re-edit)


Acclaimed London DJ collective Horse Meat Disco return in June with the third installment in their essential compilation series bringing together rare disco, ‘80s boogie, electro, fresh edits and all-new dancefloor discoveries. Mixed by resident DJs James Hillard, Jim Stanton, Severino and Filthy Luka, this new edition packs in 28 incendiary tracks for guaranteed dancefloor heaven.

CD 1 brings the peak time selection and features a spread of Salsoul classics re-worked by some of the current masters of the re-edit including Todd Terje and Stupid Human, alongside Ron Hardy’s famed and previously bootleg-only cut-up of First Choice’s “Let No Man Put Asunder.” UK producer Andy Williams aka Yam Who? cuts a brand new version of Sha-Lor’s house classic “I’m In Love” and also features as bandleader of Fuzz Against Junk on the Harvey remix of their Talking Heads cover “Born Under Punches” from the ‘90s heyday of Nuphonic Records. New productions feature from the stables of Smalltown Supersound, Rush Hour and more.

CD 2 takes us to the early hours with a hazy mid-tempo sleaze mix, echoing the spirit of infamous New York havens like The Saint. Tracks include the Factory Records classic “Reach For Me” by the late Marcel King and the rare “Lovemaker” by Wham (no relation to the George Michael group), re-issued here for the first time. ‘80s grooves from Miquel Brown from the peak days of ‘80s hi-energy and T.S. Monk’s boogie classic “Candidate For Love” rub shoulders with hand-picked mid-tempo beauties from Sylvester and original Weather Girls incarnation, Two Tons Of Fun.

Now into their eleventh year, Horse Meat Disco have continued to lead the way with packed residencies at their HQ at The Eagle in London’s Vauxhall, Lux in Lisbon and Tape in Berlin. Inspired by the music and inclusive ethos of New York’s club scene during the ‘70s and ‘80s, the collective have garnered a unique reputation for amazing parties and unmatchable sets, the quartet of DJs each mixing their own quality blend of disco juice.  During 2011, as well as playing their annual UK festival dates at Glastonbury and Lovebox, they will be spreading the love to some of the world’s leading festivals including Vivid in Sydney, Electric Elephant, Bestival and San Francisco’s Pride. (see bottom of email for full tour info)

Horse Meat Disco III is mixed by the Horse Meat Disco residents with mix bundle and all unmixed tracks available to download. Also available as unmixed 2LP set. The package features a selection of photos taken at Horse Meat’s events worldwide and exclusive sleeve notes by New York DJ and journalist Daniel Wang.

SERIOUS BOOGIE LET ME SHOW YOU LARRY WU

Another refreshed link, this one from a post from seven years ago.  When I first started to write Disco Vinyl.
LET ME SHOW YOU DOWNLOAD
"Wait a minute, I'm not through, let me show you what my love can do!"

For years I thought that Larry Wu was one funky Asian with a soulful voice. But the power of internet sheds a little light. Larry Wu is simply an alias for african american Larry Wedgeworth.

It doesn't matter what the color, this is one serious boogie groove. The square root of funk. It was released in 1984 on Atlantic Records.

If you've got a minute after enjoying this number please click the title serious boogie and it will bring you right into my Ebay store. I've been real busy posting this week.  Tons of different styles of music to choose from. Happy Hunting!
