Oggers: YOUR disco mixes...

wouldnt mind hearing some DISCO mixes from oggers only.

Post yours here:
more on the 80s tip
More 70s with a afro-house middle. Some dodgy mixing ;P

It will, of course, all be over when finn posts, but... ;)

Uh, I know this is an embarassing confession, but I don't think I've ever made even one complete Disco mix set.

My great (ahem) sets from back in the day always mix mostly house with a little disco here and there, or house with sets of hip-hop and reggae interspersed.

As you know, Disco is a bitch to beat-mix properly, so I've always
prefered listening to the old masters like Jim Burgess, and on DHP the guys like Discotizer and lots of the other board members as well.

I'd rather hear non-mixing that bad beat-mixing anyday.

And the old-schoolers who did do flawless disco mixing mostly
stuck with the same "sets" of songs that worked together, including Burgess, so their sessions get predictable.

That said, it'll pobably be months and months before I have my TT's set up for mixing again.

Anyone else?

I'm in the same situation as downtown, mixing every genre together. Will try to do a 100% disco set one day though. I'll let you know :)

Discomixing means to keep an eye on all horns, basses, the orchestra, etc..., and make faster transitions than for eg house. Difficult but not impossible.

I lov'em when they are really worked, I'll also try to do mine when I have the time, these are tricky for transitions ....I'll try to include some pure disco tracks in a "house" set....which makes it easier because it's nearly impossible to make transitions last like for techno mixes and most of the time you have to wait until the end of the track....
Boogie Down is very nice....fast transitions ....

Yo Fist, gotta link for this mix? I know Frankie and Adam since my days DJ-ing at The Palladium and having my own record store around the corner from theirs. I'd like to check that mix out!

Thanks.

Tracerfirefm: I'm treating the pissing contest between youze and Bones as "entertainment", so other than that I'm gonna keep my diplomatic distance...I have no idea what started it and I'd rather keep it that way.

@ DownTown.Music, I found it on Mixes Forum :- Bones's 80's Block Party Mix Here -
I especially like when the sampled sound bang-bangs on a few tracks (the mix with Chic & run-dmc is maaaddd)....+ gino soccio etc etc :)

When I mix electronic music I always mix the tracks together as long as possible, its more fun for me.... When trying to do the same with Disco I get into trouble, now I keep it as short and as possible, just using the crossfade. Let's face it, short mixes (4-8bars), cuts or none at all are the best, people want to hear when the new track comes along, or? Its possible to rock a party without managing one mix just as long as the trackling is great.

Getting off the topic here but in Stockholm DJs play what I call Dub Disco, hard underground disco with no vocals... Why don't DJ want to play vocal cuts? Is there a reason, maybe this is just a Stockholm thing? I hope you guys understand what I mean. Although, heard Daniel Wang DJ some weeks ago and he played cheesy peaktime Disco hits and it worked so well, the girls love it ;)

PS, Please add tracklists if you share a mix, so frustrating otherwise.

It's great to drop in a set two or three vocal oriented -songs!- with relatively long Disco Dubs cakes in my opinion, as it is also for instro or not to alternate fast with slower tunes imo.
I would enjoy the Stockholm vibe - a lot - i'm sure !
At least you have Disco oriented parties there, here it's much more rare :(

Hey everyone,

as this forum and especially this topic seem to be suitable for submitting mixes, here's one promotional disco mix of mine which I did early last summer. I did it as a promotional CD for an event agency, as they wanted some music for their client and it was suppose to be some sort of mainstream disco.

Mix is done with one turntable and reworked afterwards, but it has a continuous flow. Edit style, you know what I mean.

George Spruce - Raw Goodies Edits

It's a mixture of quite popular disco tracks and house, enjoy.

Better yet, don't mix songs together that don't lend themselves to mixing.
Use a sound effect.
Slam mix the incoming song on the downbeat or upbeat.
Pause for a second.
It's about the MUSIC, not the DJ or the mix from one song to the next.

I agree... some reverb or delay at the end of a track can be the perfect opening to something different while adding a lil atmos.

Yep, a lot of these records weren't made with the Discotheque in mind not the DJ in mind, if you know what i mean.

Oh, and suenomartino - what was the 'move to the rhythm of the latin groove' track on your 'Can Your Move' mix (before The Extra's kicked in)? It veered between brilliance and awfulness all the way through - one part Jonny Dynell to two parts Modern Romance! The groove is wicked, though - is a sole instrumental available?

One last request - on that same mix, sp07 (which, by the way, proves the point that long mixes don't work on most old school music - some VERY dodgy passages in there), what was the track before the BT Express 'Satisfied' tune (it's a double bass led track that I recognised from being, I think, sampled by Tribe Called Quest back in the day...)?

Jackamoto's "Catch a Groove" - this one crept under the radar, only just listened to it - great stuff - liked the contrast between the old skool jam of the first half and the more euro-electro-punky style of second half.

Hey glad you guys dug those mixes I posted - I've only just checked in here again after posting ages ago.

They're mixed on a 1200's and a UREI 1620 mixer straight into a computer - I will admit that a couple of the blends take a few runs to get right (or "good enough") though.

Davejay, nice spotting - that latin track is in fact Modern Romance's 'Can You Move'. Hilarious rapping and a great track all round. There is an instrumental and also a different dub version called Salsa Rhapsody on a different WEA 12".

Tracklist for Jerky Rhythms mix:

Secret Weapon - Must Be The Music (Prelude)
Denroy Morgan - I'll Do Anything For You (Becket)
Nick Straker Band - Just A Little Bit Of Jazz (Prelude)
Eastbound Expressway - Never Let Go (AVI)
Felix - Tiger Stripes (Sleeping Bag)
Level 42 - Turn It On (Polydor)
Kleeer - Taste the Music (remix) (Parisonic)
Eddy Grant - Nobodies Got Time (ICE)
Erotic Drum Band - Jerky Rythm (Champagne)
Shalamar - Right In The Socket (Solar)
BT Express - Give up the funk (UK edit) (Calibre)
Kenton Nix - There's Never Been Noone Like You (West End)

Here's another mix that was broadcast on Clincally Inclined on 89.3 FM WNUR Chicago last year. More eclectic/early 80's than straight -up disco, but I had a lot of fun recording it.

[quote=konkordski][/quote]

Change your technique.
While mixing House, it's most common to leave the crossfader in the middle, mix with both hands, each one on the channel fader.
When mixing Disco, I suggest to keep both channel faders at the top and work with one hand on the crossfader and the other hand on your pitch control. This helps to adjust more rapidly and accurately.

Another trick is to when pitching in a chorus to also mix in a chorus. The BPM of Disco tracks vary tremendously, especially when you compare the break to the rest of the song.

In addition to that, you might want to mix only from break to break. So skip the entire beginning of the track, and mix it in as of the break.

One last trick for the little ones amongst us, learn how to count to 4... :)
