Back To The Disco (35)

 

Number '35' in the 'Year if Music' series is now 'Back To The Disco' and it's had a completely new cover done too.

At the time of doing this mix, I hadn't put together a mix of edits for a couple of years, so I was a bit rusty. That's leads me to the new cover, which as you can see is old, unused and a little bit rusty disco equipment; a mirrorball, lighting and studio gear, all a little worse for wear.

The previous post I had up sharing this mix mentioned that I put this together (live & unplanned - as all these mixes have been) whilst having a few ciders on a Friday night, and really I just had a little fun with it. As mentioned, I was a little out of practice with this kind of thing, so one or two of the mixes / levels aren't the best, but I remember having fun doing it and that was more important to me given that the weekly mix thing had felt a bit of a chore by this point. So, all things considered, I posted it anyway, imperfections and all.

I always try and post a fully linked up tracklist to the mixes I share. I feel like it's the least I can do when I'm sharing music this way, thinking that it might lead to a sale or a new follower for the artists. With the edit based mixes, many will have been taken down, either by the person who edited the track, or because they've been forced to, so the tracklist is going to be very limited for mixes of this nature. If you dig around though, you might find them yourself if I haven't been able to, and you can always try and get a copy from the edit creator if you ask them nicely.
