“Everybody dance, do-do-do, Clap your hands, clap your hands”

Listen on Mixcloud

I initially wasn’t sure about this episode when I was recording it. I’d already thrown away an aborted attempt when I had that classic DJ nightmare of not picking a good next track before the current one had finished playing. At that point I’d lost the energy to have another go. But I stuck with it and by the time I threw on a remix of Chic’s “Everybody Dance” I found myself singing along like a total fool. I really like this episode, some big chunky disco-drenched grooves going on here. And it ends with one of my favourite house tunes of all time, Fire Island’s “If You Should Need A Friend”, a big uplifting piano anthem with a positive message.

Tracklisting:

1. Ananda Project, Gaelle Adisson – Cascades Of Colour (Wamdue Black Mix)
2. Johnick – Safari Disco (Extended Mix)
3. Selace – So Hooked on Your Lovin (Mousse T.’s extended disco Shizzle)
