Must check out the thread out again. I was on the list for mix train 2 but that certainly never happened...or I got dropped.

Juno download have nu-disco charts and also a 'classics' section. The original DJTT nu-disco train is in the link below... it's a bit long in the tooth now!

We did complete a mix train. The mix was rather fine.

Greg Wilson did the first televised edit of a track and the first beatmatched mix ever on uk TV in 1983... We are talking over 30 years now.
He has a ton of his old and new sets on soundcloud. A good starting point.


+1 for Beats In Space. It's treasure trove of mixes. Check for: Dr Dunks (rub n tug). DJ Harvey. Rory Phillips . Ooft. Holy Ghost!. Todd Terje oh man the list goes on

Ahh the Harvey-meister. A DJ's, DJ. Remember way back in 97-99 when he played up in Manchester regularly at the Roadhouse, pretty intimate nights. Also Beginning's of the 'Electric chair' at t' Roadhouse. Now that was a good night.

im actually jealous of your luck. I want to play Nu Disco so badly where i am at a venue but it doesnt go down in the club i play. Want to get a bar lounge gig for it maybe.

Well the Club asked for this kind of music which is not that popular in Italy as for now..
That's why I will use some daft punk classic as well and some jackin house in the set..
More classics or 70 and 80 remixes to pump up the room from time to time..
Still I think is a cool way to make people have fun with this kinda of funky and "happy" sounds that will recall peoples memories and stuff..
I would like to do a nice impression as we all do when we play
So anyway that's all for support again.
One more thing.. where do you think I should look for starsky and hutch remix or something similar.. obviously they have to fit in the set.. ??

The original Starsky and Hutch theme was by Lalo Schifrin and probably isn't the version you have in mind. That is most likely the Tom Scott "Gotcha" version. In which case the James Taylor Quartet cover is pretty nice and is actually called "The Theme from Starsky and Hutch (Funky People) Mix". Its available from itunes.
