It has "Moon-Boots" by ORS which is prob my #1 all time disco jam

siouxsan sarandon (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 10 May 2013 22:52 (ten years ago) link

Also fyi the *quintessential* Levan album is Gwen Guthrie's "Padlock" which is a remix album he did. It's probably the best disco album of all time, really.

Also, once you start digging deeper there's a fantastic series of compilations called Disco Discharge; they're all 2xCD and there's maybe like 20 all together? They all have themes, too (Disco Ladies, Euro Disco, Gay Disco, Disco Exotica, etc.)

set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 11 May 2013 22:24 (ten years ago) link

I've gotten some good stuff from this one

Dubby Disco RFI

also I am assuming you already have the two big LL comps (Journey into Paradise and also Classic West End Remixes Made Famous At etc etc) but this is another fun thing if you want something for a party or housework or whatever:

i don't really have anything at all so this is all super helpful!

Between both of those two Levan comps AND the two 2xCD Mancuso Loft comps AND the 2xCD Moulton comp you will prob have a fair amount of overlap but it will also be pretty comprehensive. The Moulton stuff has a different vibe than the Levan stuff (Moulton strikes me as maybe more lush and less funky/dubby)

siouxsan sarandon (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 11 May 2013 22:43 (ten years ago) link

have been listening to Moulton all day - lush definitely seems like a good word for him!

I have a couple of those Disco Discharge compilations, they're great!

I like how his wife's name is Marie because they already had a character named Mary

siouxsan sarandon (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 23 May 2013 22:47 (ten years ago) link

Also his name is basically Mary too

siouxsan sarandon (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 23 May 2013 22:48 (ten years ago) link

it's all still finding its feet atm but i do love that everyone has grown-up conversations, and that real character moments aren't sacrificed for grand gags
