dark disco train by professor eddy
subscribeSeptember 9th, 2008
The idea behind the mix was to make a disco mix for dark days. Most of the disco songs are about having fun, feeling good and making love. I put together some dark (post) disco tracks and personal favourites of mine that always make me feel good. I hope you enjoy this new one, even when you’re feeling happy! ;-)
01 nick straker band – leaving on a midnight train [12”] (1980)
02 ultravox – we came to dance (1983)
03 lisa lisa & cult jam with full force – i wonder if i take you home [eddy’s edit] (1984)
04 joan osborne – i’ve got to use my imagination (2007)
05 wings – good night tonight [12”] (1979)
06 american gypsy – queen for a day (1975)
07 george aaron – silly reason (1985)
08 the human league – hard times (1981)

Really nice tunes! A very good mix of seventies disco, new wave and electro.

I really dug this mix. I was pleasantly surprised to hear Sheila & B. Devotion with Spacer. Nice.

Still listening to it from time to time. I would call the style ‘electro soul’ or something. Many synthesizers but an overall soulful feeling. Very good!

A little correction on the playlist, I forgot to mention ‘Promises, promises’ by Naked Eyes (1983) after American Gypsy (track 6). I discovered this error after re-listening to the mix on my new bought ipod this afternoon, sorry…
go on, leave a cheeky comment...
