Synopsis

Album Description

2010 two CD release, BBE Records' fifth and arguably most exciting compilation with the French DJ and ambassador of Disco. For this compilation, Dimitri has exclusively reworked five tracks from the original multi-track tapes of Gamble and Huff with a further four being edited from the original 2 track stereo masters. Dimitri's selection on Disc One traces the evolution of the '70s Disco groove from the first ever Disco hit record, to the rejuvenation of the Jackson 5's career. Interspersed with obscurities such as Charles Mann to the magnificent Teddy Pendergrass, Philly International's answer to Marvin Gaye. Disc Two of the compilation pays homage to the original creators and innovators of the remix and extended edits with reworkings exclusively by Dimitri from Paris.

Victor E. from AUSTIN, TX
Reviewed on 6/25/2023...

To this reviewer, the most interesting kind of disco is the "soul with a better beat" that came out of Philadelphia (Gamble & Huff), the Salsoul Orchestra & label, or MFSB. So here are some excellent tracks, period. And then DJ Dimitri From Paris is probably the best remixer of this kind of classic sound, see for instance his Playboy Mansion discs. Put them together, and you get this stellar double disc.

I love it!

"
The best compilation from Dimitri from Paris. I was so happy when I heard that he will release that compilation with bbe records. The second cd (mixed) is better then original songs which is sometimes hard to acomplish, because original is original, but well done for Mr. Dimitri.

If you like soul, funky rhythm then this is for you. I love it!"
