If You Don't Know. . .

Some sweet disco funk to keep those hips a-gyratin'

Jammers - And You Know That (Shep Pettibone Remix)

Jan 25, 2009

So I was thinking about doing a edit of the David Bowie song, "Fame."

Then I heard this house remix from the 90's floating around and decided that it would be nearly impossible to outdo.

Get down with your early-nineties self.

Discophile

There are two acts that are around today making honest, authentic, live-band-oriented disco. Escort is one of them. (Faze action is the other, but we'll save them for another time.)

I'm sure there are many more which have slipped under my radar, but until they show up as little blips on my green screen, here are some remixes and a live video by Escort.

Walter Meego - Forever (Escort Remix)

Tracy Thorn - It's All True (Escort's Extended Disco Remix)

I've Got the William's Blood

Grace Jones is great.

The remixes for "William's Blood" are phenomenal.

The Cosmic Jam remix was on of my best of 2008.

Here are the others to keep you movin' through the weekend.

Grace Jones - William's Blood (Aeroplane Remix)

Best of 2008 - Part 3

A little late on this one, but perhaps you all will forgive me.

I have narrowed down my top albums of 2008 to just three.

Here they are in no particular order. . . .

1) Hot Chip - Made in the Dark
