Hercules' Theme Blind (Hercules Club Mix) Regular readers of my blog will already know that I love Hercules & Love Affair, the latest hipsters signed to the always good DFA Records. When their album came out earlier this spring I did a piece on it where I gushed over my love for it. OK. maybe I didn't gush, but I do love it. Produced by DFA main man Tim Goldsworthy, I wrote "it is a disco stunner

Pitchfork referred to Hercules and Love Affair as “a compelling new voice in American dance music.” The act’s music is so deeply rooted in club culture that with its debut release it has retreated into club’s history to find what may be the next great sound. Surely disco is an influence, but is [...]

Gwen Guthrie – Hopscotch (Larry Levan instrumental mix) Twice in the last couple of weeks I’ve heard Gwen Guthrie’s Ain't Nothin’ Goin’ On but the Rent playing in shops; once in my local newsagents while charging the oyster, a pleasant start to another otherwise dreary work day. I’d forgotten how good it was and I thought it might drive me to come out of semi-blog retirement. Instead I’ve opted for...

A legendary name in British dance music, DJ Froggy's pioneering use of mixing techniques transformed British club culture in the 1980s. His innovative approach helped to spawn the rave and acid house scenes and he was a seminal influence on a generation of younger DJs such as Pete Tong.

You have to love a great gospel song, and one of my favorite's is Larry Levan 's unreleased edit of the The Joubert Singers ' 1985 classic " Stand On The Word ". This edit came out on the bootlegged record label, Larry , which is a label dedicated to putting out rare unreleased white label edits and mixes by Larry Levan. You might not think a track like this, that has a heavy gospel influence, can...
