Pyral Maxima - InDisco Rubs Summer 2013 (InDa Sessions 2)

Another InDa session. Ten days later and the sunshine is back. Let’s celebrate by surrendering to the power of DISCO!

This mix builds on a playlist of disco-tinged tracks from summer 2013. Funky rhythm guitars, lush strings, SalSoul samples, 70s bass grooves, diva vocal hooks… Sometimes as straight covers or re-edits, at other points looped and twisted, this is where house pays homage to the days of Studio 54 and latter 80s grooves.

Tracks under the pin-spots? Well, there are two very similar tracks that sample the same section from a tune by Luther Vandross’ old band, Change. I didn’t notice the similarity until I came to Chapter the podcast file - can you spot them? Change also provide the backbone of No Dilemma, joined by Eryka Badu. Whitney is cut up to great effect on Only Child’s Down Fever - a tune I partied to with the EE gang at Glastonbury last year. Enjoy!
