Its been a while since I did an update, mostly because I am a useless bastard. So this week will see three – thats right, three new mixes from people I have met on my travels of late, all the different shades of disco and house represented, of course. Tonight though its my turn, with a mix on Galaxy Radio going out sometime between the hours of 2am and 6am.

MUSIC PLAYED IN DISCOTHEQUES
BY GREG WILSON FOR [...]
Following on from Greg’s Electric Chair debut (Renaissance #8), this is a June 2006 recording of his return to the fabled Mancunian party, much mourned since its final execution in January 08. A fittingly momentous mix with which to mark the 10th Renaissance.
Electric Chair Return pt 1: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download Electric Chair Return pt 2: Play Now | Play in Popup | DownloadI was lucky enough to do a mix for Cool in the Pool and an interview a few weeks ago, and, as Its been up for a little while I thought I would link to it from here. The mix was a more uptempo affair than usual, on purpouse. I try to play as many different things as i can (as many different things as I like), however, don’t expect a genre mish-mash of everything going – just the usual groove based affair.

Almost like a second homecoming, given his key role in the evolution Manchester club culture during the early 80’s, Greg was welcomed as a returning hero by Luke Unabomber, and the full set he played that memorable night, 4 years ago to the month, appears here in 2 parts.

I wont put it up here because the mix was crafted for them, but here is a tracklisting for those interested…

Ozmosis Part 1: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download Ozmosis Part 2: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download Ozmosis Part 3: Play Now | Play in Popup | DownloadA mix, not necessarily reflecting what will be played at the archive night, but certainly with the vibe that I hope will be around – an influx of style and sound constricted only by the DJ, not by anypreconceived ideas of what should or shouldn’t be played. This is a mix of disco “based” stuff I suppose, but really, its just a collection of tracks that I like. Hope you do too.

Coming in 3 parts (taken from a chilled-out vibe in the afternoon, to a full-on dance party at night) the mix, which has never appeared anywhere online previously, captures almost 4 hours of the event, which was promoted by Tirk Records and Lasermagnetic.

Situated at the very cool Purple Pussycat, the music is a throw down of disco, funk, pop, cheese, soul, boogie and electro. Pretty much anything as long as its good. Cosmic Boogie were invited over to play on Friday 27th of June

Not only is the blog an inspiration, its a virtual catacomb filled with musical treasures. Without these three aficionado’s this blog wouldn’t exist, and I bet countless others wouldn’t either. So its a real pleasure to have a Cosmic Boogie mix hosted by them.
