Here is a mix from a couple of dudes in Manchester England we met up in Glasgow at Sideshow. These guys carry everything from Marcel Dettmann to Mike Mareen in their record bags, clashing Detroit techno with italo disco- working to great effect on occasions.

This mix really in keeping with the vibe music hosted on the blog, with a few of our gems thrown in.. we thought it would be rude not to host it. Starting of slow with a few classic cosmic tunes balancing funk with cheese, italo esq “Silencer” gets the mix into swing, the vibe then turns deep which is quite prominent throughout the rest of the mix.

The East End boys and West End girls

East end London boys are dusting off the pastic for this weeks resident advisor podcast.

“The Disco Bloodbath boys have risen rapidly since starting their club night back in April of 2007. Beginning in an old Caribbean restaurant in the heart of Dalston, their effervescent mix of disco, italo and early house quickly attracted a following of clubbers that fancied a change from the usual London club night. As their popularity swelled, Bloodbath were forced to change venues multiple times due to the sheer demand for a place on their dance floor, and with The Sunday Times recently name checking them in an article about the capital’s disco renaissance, it looks like their success is set to continue.”

There is some serious crate digging in this one…download before it expires…
