Viva Paris

Off to Paris next week. So to celebrate just posting the great video for ' Sacre Francais' by Dimitri from Paris.

DANCE COMRADE DANCE

I've been listening to a lot of Soviet era rare groove from the old USSR. No really! It's pretty good. Check it out at Soviet Groove 

Monday Night Fever - Robots LOVE disco

A blast from the past

Another old picture from the archive. What ever happened to Nu Rave?

The Seven Circles of Disco Hell

A while back I went through a 'Disco' phase. I wanted to put a Disco ball in every picture. I got the idea of the seven circles of Disco Hell. A 'Disco Inferno' if you will. I was going to do a descending list of Disco acts going from the sublime to the ridiculous. Putting Donna Summer as the pinnacle I started work on this Magnum Opus. In the end It all got a bit much. How do you manage to fit Chic, the Bee Gees and all of the Village People in to the landscape of Hell with out the composition getting too cluttered.

Any way I thought I'd post what I did do. Enjoy!!

The Brothers' Gibbs. Stayin' Alive. Gold Medallion man personified.

Did the French invent Disco? Who knows but France's Cerrone is all that's best and worse in  Disco.He wrote the classic 'Supernature'! I love the hair/ moustache he worked through the 70s.

 

The Village People. Need I say more!

At the more classy end of Disco. Chic. Le Freak. I was rather happy with the way this turned out.

Mr Gainsbourg

I'm a big Serge Gainsbourg fan. So to start off the blog I thought I'd post some pictures I've done of him.
The first two pictures have appeared on Jonathan Edwards' rather good 'Draw Serge' blog. You should check it out.
I've also included a little Serge mix I put together. All tracks written by the 'cabbage head' himself! Enjoy!
