DJ EARLYBIRD - DISCOBOOTISM

After a serious disco-infection DJ EARLYBIRD is back from the dancefloor with an album spanning the years from 1972 to 1981 with one boot for each year.

here is DISCOBOOTISM

full package download (all tracks with front-cover and back-cover artwork)

(don't worry - individual links follow below)

so what have we got???

1) 1972 manu dibango vs queen feat snoop doggy dog - we will rock makossa

some consider manu dibango's soul makossa the first disco track. When it reached NYC as an obscure import, dj's went crazy for it. Well about queen's 'we will rock you'- what can i say.... it's a track i love to hate as much as i hate to love it. The title being so emblematic.... it had to be the first one for this album. Find a bit of snoop with some vocoder bits added

2) 1973 the intruders vs michael jackson - i will always love my billie jean

i have always loved the intruders 'i will always love my momma', but when i discovered that there was an 8 minute plus version of it, i knew i had to include it in this disco compilation. michael jackson was so spot on there weren't any questions left.

3) 1974 barry white's love unlimited vs the fugees

this is everything i love about a good a+b.

4) 1975 van mccoy vs genesis - the invisible hustle

a good example of exorcism, (or at least i tried...) Van Mccoy's track accompagnied the new dance craze in 1975, called the HUSTLE. wanna try:?

* Basic - similar to the basic from single-step swing, except rock step is at beginnin
* Turn - 180° clockwise turn taken between 2 and 3 count, followed by a rock step
* Left Turn - 180° counterclockwise turn taken between 1 and 2 count, followed by a rock step
* Side Break - lead sends follow out still holding her left hand, then picks her back up
* Wheel - couple in double hand-hold pumps arms like a bellows; couple as a whole rotates 180° clockwise
* Inside Turn or Loop Turn - similar to the loop turn from swing; follower twirls 360° counterclockwise

5) 1976 salsoul orchestra vs janet jackson - nice'n naasty boys

a thematic boot. and nasty is the theme. yup. apart from that, a big hommage to salsoul, one of the first labels to give dj's (namely walter gibbons) the chance to remix artists (long befor the term remix was coined), and a great disco label as well....

6) 1977 cerrone vs madonna - get into the groove of the supernature

no disco compilation without a splash of italo disco. this piece by cerrone makes me wonder just a little how techno youth would get so crazy bout trancy shit in 1997 screaming "future,future" where it had been around for twenty years already. There is a fantastic video from 1977 by the way, with cerrone playing drums in the desert HERE And Madonna? what can you say. She'S Madonna. She tried to confess on the dancefloor. That's all I'm asking for.

7) 1978 chic vs robbie williams feat outkast - rocked by dj funny bone

the 'chic' album's are fantastic. period. people mostly know 'le freak (c'est chic)' but they are great all the way. the track '(funny) bone' is more the outro on the 'C'est chic' album and it has party ambience mixed into it. I remember having had a disco record, where the party ambience was running all the time. i gave it to someone, but who???? Not robbie williams, that's for sure---

8) 1979 instant funk vs ac/dc - back in black bodyshine

my neighbours dog always starts barking when i play this track...

9) 1980 loose joints vs justin timberlake - all over my love

with this larry levan mix of the loose joints classic (arthur russel being the man behind it) disco had arrived in the paradise garage. I'm probably not the first one to ask the question how justin could think to bring sexy back when sexy never was gone. Picturing Justin in the paradise garage makes me laugh 'mommy, mommy help me, there are a lot of blacks, i think they are homosexual....)

10) 1981 - donald byrd vs tears for fears feat beyonce - love shout

where the donald byrd instrumental and the 'tears for fears' acapella meet...we ahave arrive in the eighties....but disco will never die. disco's not dead. punk is dead.

Hope you like it. Please do link to this page: Have a fine day.
