The night begins with a slow burn… Greg Wilson’s version of Love Is the Drug by Roxy Music — a timeless groove celebrating 50 years of a record that still drips with danger, desire, and velvet allure. 🥀✨
From there, we slide deeper into the pulse — smooth edits, late-night disco burners, and grooves built to make the floor melt. Raw Silk’s Just in Time gets a lush lift with Michael Gray on the remix, setting the tone for a night where every beat is a touch, every bassline a whisper.
D.C. LaRue’s Cathedrals — wrapped in that classic Dave Lee disco extension — unfurls like a velvet curtain. Rhyze’s Do Your Dance slides in with that Moodena bounce, the kind of track that makes hips talk without words.
We keep the energy hot with The Shapeshifters’ Slippery People featuring Ramona Renea & Fiorious — Sophie Lloyd turning it into pure sweat and seduction.
The night’s heartbeat hits its stride with Phyllis Hyman’s You Know How to Love Me (Dave Lee’s Extended Disco Mix) — a record that glides like silk and bites like champagne bubbles.
Then… D.C. LaRue returns with Do You Want the Real Thing in an Opolopo rework that’s all heat and no hesitation.
Finally, we bring it home with disco royalty — Candido’s Dancin’ and Prancin’ (The Reflex Revision) and The Far Out Monster Disco Orchestra’s Step Into My Life — a one-two punch designed to keep you locked in the groove, body to body, beat to beat.
This is Lovers Groove.
Where disco sweats, seduces, and never says goodnight. 🖤🪩

Disco Edits Special Mix - Discothèque Decadence DD008
This mix is a celebration of the edit – where funk, soul, disco, and hip hop get reimagined for today’s dancefloor.
We open with Greg Wilson & Ché’s remix of The Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight” – a fresh, floor-shaking twist on a timeless classic. From there, it’s pure groove: The Reflex lifts Instant Funk to new heights, DJ Fudge adds fire to Sadam Ant, and Dave Lee delivers pure gold with Glenn Jones, Mtume, Harvey Mason, and Gwen McCrae.
Ken@Work flips Curtis Mayfield and Tom Browne into modern floor-fillers, keeping the energy alive and kicking.
The originals – Tom Browne, Gwen McCrae, Instant Funk, The Sugarhill Gang – built the foundation. The editors – Greg Wilson & Ché, The Reflex, Dave Lee, DJ Fudge, Ken@Work – keep it alive, fresh, and powerful in 2025.
This is about groove, respect, and reinvention. Turn it up and celebrate the culture.
