Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque! After a fair few days of (much needed) rest - today, I'm incredibly excited to bring you the final 'Dreamer in America' post, talking about four amazing tracks that I was listening to during my last hours (and the flight home) from the states. Today's quartet of fine cuts goes in a huge range of directions - despite all of it being blog-era, there's some gorgeous nu-disco, wonderful French-touch infused synthwave and of course, the usual servings of club jams, this time around from Wales and Italy. Let's begin! Lebatman - Alphaville Starting this one off strong with a bona fide classic - Alphaville (and no, I'm not talking about the German band...) has only clicked with me fairly recently, despite being a massive underground hit upon release at the start of French house's major, DIY-led comeback in the late 2000s, and a blueprint for many talents in the modern scene (including New-York based musician Mr. Ho...

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque! We're now (unfortunately) nearing the end of the 'Dreamer in America' series, as my time in Oklahoma is quickly drawing to a close. Today is my last day, and tomorrow, I'll be boarding a flight from Dallas to London to head home - but regardless, I plan to bring you nothing but the best, readers, and there's gonna be a post when I get home with even more bangers. In the meantime - here's the usual trio of fire picks from me - let's begin! Broke One - Movin' On If you've been keeping up with the blog over the last six months or so, or know me personally in the French house community, then you'll know damn well that I've become a massive fan of the incredible beats produced by underground Italian producer Broke One. Over the last few days, I've been heavily blasting one of his cuts that was later signed to Shiny Disco Club - the rumbly, almost jazzy filter house jam Movin' On that he dropp...

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque! As it was on Saturday - I've had a pretty eventful day in Oklahoma (to be exact, I was in Tulsa!) so I apologize if this entry is a little short. Regardless of that, today's duo of (very damn fine!) picks are a little bit different from what's mostly been covered so far - on the menu is some sweet electro house, and also some smooth, modern stuff from one of my good friends in the French house scene - so I hope you enjoy the tracks today. Let's begin! Strip Steve and Das Glow - Snake Abs Now, like I said above - I'm very pleased to report that there's finally gonna be some electro house on the Dreamer In America series (and as much as I love filter house, disco and future funk, some variety is always nice!) and who better to provide that than French masters Strip Steve (known for his incredible work on Boysnoize Records and Arcade Mode, alongside buckets of killer remixes!) and Das Glow (also known for his BNR work...

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque! We're now just over halfway into the 'Dreamer in America' series and from this point forward, I'm going to be trying my best to give you readers some recommendations that are a little more diverse (including some more future funk and of course, some sweet, sweet electro stuff - finally!) whilst also providing buckets of nu disco and French house to level up most of this week. For my trio of picks today, I've selected some blog-era stuff (which is pretty standard, by this point!) and some golden era future funk from a set of producers that are underrated as hell in my eyes - so I hope today's selections serve you well and brighten up the worst day of the week - Monday. Let's begin! Junior Senior - Move Your Feet (Agrume Rework) Released as a bonus track on his excellent Days of Future Funk EP from the summer of 2017 - this club-ready edit of Junior Senior's smash hit from the early 2000s, produced by Future ...

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque! Just as I promised at the end of the last 'Dreamer in America' post, today I bring you three awesome filter house / nu disco jams from some of my favourite artists to date (and major influences on my sound!) hailing from a pretty huge range of places - namely England, Poland and Italy, all of which initially made their name during the late 2000s, internet fueled French house wave - so I hope you enjoy reading my (rather odd, at times) commentary on these classics, and most importantly, listening to them this fine Sunday. Let's begin! Louis La Roche - Tonight Aside from his latest record The New Now - it's only just dawned on me that I haven't really talked all that much about the dazzling nu disco work put out by Norwich-based artist Louis La Roche in recent years, and that needs to change - so I thought I'd start this post off by talking about one of my new favourites from the legend, that being a very underrated,...

Hey everyone - welcome back at the discotheque! It's been a fairly eventful day for me (I had a huge family gathering, and I'm rather tired!) so I apologize for not getting this post out sooner - to make up for it, here's your daily dose of great selections from me - on the cards today are two killer French house cuts from New York and California, so get ready for your ears to be blessed! Mr. Hoosteen - Delite (feat. Chello) If you've been reading this blog for a long time, or are a personal friend of mine - then you know that I almost never stop singing my praises for one of New York's finest artistic talents. He's the founder of OMEAC Records, an excellent graphic designer specializing in pop-art influenced works that are futuristic, colourful and full of glamour, but most importantly, he's an absolutely incredible producer that (somehow) is still very underrated, cooking up the finest in filter house, nu disco, rave and acid techno - this of course being ...
