Liverpool Disco Mixes – Gavin Kendrick
Around this time last year I started off a small series of mixes called “Liverpool Disco Mixes”. There were around 4 or 5 from different people in and around the city, and they were well received. With this in mind, a repeat of the series this year inviting more DJ’s to contribute seemed a good idea. If it works, and the mixes come in, there should be enough to keep going for the next couple of months. I am also working on an article about the history of disco in Liverpool, which will be published at the end of the series.
The premise of the mixes is simple – when you look through them you might not directly think of them as “disco” per-say, but I have left the interpretation of disco to the DJ – so its up to them to put there own angle on it whatever that may be. Disco, in essence, is just music played in discotheques and therefore in theory could accomodate everything.
The first mix is from one time Cosmic Boogie member Gavin Kendrick – a friend and brilliant DJ, who will also be resident with me at the new Cosmic Boogie Presents… night in Liverpool. No better way to start.
