Nothing hits quite like a great bootleg, or a vindictive lawsuit from Donna Summer's estate, so keep things hush hush. This is the first (and a personal favourite) Dem Bones record, a label focused on disco remixes from the UK. Antony Daly, the co-producer, left a comment o the making of the track on Discogs, and now runs the 586 records shop in Gateshead, northeast England.

If it was played in a club during the late 60s and 70s, thats the only stamp of approval I need. A truly magnificent genre. Not necessarily slept on, but should be brought back to the clubbing scene (if in DC or NY area and aware of spaces that are genius enough to include this on their playlists, please leave recs below!)
Currently on repeat: Doctor's Order by Carol Douglas
Linked: A clip of Charlotte York from SATC dancing to this song in a club on Staten Island. These are the vibes, people; this is what we need to bring back.

If you need a deep cut dance album and ever find yourself wondering what early "indie sleaze" actually sounded like when you were at the club...

A beautiful vocal (Ce Ce Rogers' Someday, 1987) paired with what was already a fun and super timely disco track (Cloud One's Happy Music, 1978). Instead of just using the sample in Happy Music on its own, Duke went through the trouble of mimicking the original's sliding synth and making his own beautiful progression that runs almost the entire length of the track, and shows great respect for its source material.

Nobody likes it when a DJ messes up what the beginning of a bar is on a track during a transition: everybody gets confused and doesn't know which beat to follow. Ironically, everyone loves when a track makes room for this to happen on purpose, just like this one does. The vocal goes on and on and on without a beat, and by the time you think you know what you're grooving to, you're taken for a ride when the rest of the arrangement kicks in. I also have a soft spot for jangly filtered guitars and that compressed, plugged-nose sounding bass tone. For more of that disorienting feeling, also try Daft Punk - Prime Time of Your Life (Para One Remix).
