Recommend some Disco and Funk tracks
Posted on: 07.05.2010 by Johnsie Kingrea
Hey everyone ever since hearing Duck Sauce and few other great disco funk style tracks i've been obsessed. I've been having trouble finding a consistent set of tracks that would fit with Duck Sauce. So I was wondering what your guys recommendations would be for disco and funk tracks.

Some more contributions.

The Eternals - Wrath of Zeus (Original Mix) - Gotta love the french accent zeus. Full of funky-genius. (First brought to my attention by JFK from MSTRKRFT if you believe that! :S)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD0MJ5uJx30


Axel Le Baron - Primary School
A more modern filtered french-house track
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KS32PpzFq2Y



LCD Soundsystem - Yeah (Pretentious mix)
This EPIC masterpiece from LCD has such an awesome name.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8MK_O9M9wQQ

More from DFA records, just such an amazing label , there is a DFA Edit floating around (much more mix friendly, doesn't have the punky part at the end.) but I couldn't find it on youtube. This song is on in the house party in the movie Superbad!

The Rapture - Echo's
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bibXZUZVonw
YESSSSSS!!!! Wrath of zeus is amazing. I just bought waves a month or so ago for $3 from germany (i live in america) and found that track....sooo goood.

Great song. I've got this Greg Wilson remix and I swear I though I played it on a show not to long ago, but cant find it in any of my track listings. Something I'll have to remedy next show maybe.

There is really one place you should bookmark for sure when you're looking for great disco tracks:deep disco

http://soundcloud.com/groups/deep-disco

Why?
Because the track selection/moderation is awesome and everything is free downloadable in 320kb+
It's the biggest disco treasure on the internet no one knows about, so don't tell you've got it from me

There's a great Facebook page attached to it as well btw.

Can't help it - gotta post - lovin' this thread

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpIVqWucCgM


kinda disco-ish, weirdly I found it in the indie electro section:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMDpHPfbBGk

and this one 'cause for it's cheesy disco-acid-housy-thingy vibe and one of the most brilliant artist names out there:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdgAA4pMcf0


this one always seem to work for me in a funky-ish set:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lD12gU9lAA

Especially if you mix it with this one:

Try these for size. Quite a long list so I hope there's something you like!

French house vibes here. The drop at 2.50 is amazing, plus the name Lesbian Bondage Fiasco is the best band name ever
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5m_MDUCU0M

Great remix of a shit song here from Grum. Skip the intro, laugh at the lyrics and wait for the drop at 2.33. HOT.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MB2P7NrICQ

Very happy disco. Beach volley ball sunshine sound, you get me?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFK6b7BG9PQ

Cosmic sounding disco here. FUNKY.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJ0UngzqRXk

Very Cheesy 80's sound from Grum here. Plus the video for it is hilarious.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dUbtrTU-1U

Slowed down disco from Grum again. It's a bit Madonna and very catchy. Maybe not the best for a DJ set, but is great on sunny days and dancing alone in your underwear with a hair brush microphone to. Yeah we all do it, don't we right...?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saGZge6W6gQ

Crazy disco here, good for a club I believe. Crazy drunk dancers ahoy!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYpyNAJgsrQ

Smooth disco here feels quite nostalgic?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCiGGubKvzo

And lastly some epic dance off disco. Love the sample, although I have no idea what she's really saying

These two have been getting constant plays in my disco/funk-esque sets:

Not sure if any on the Editainment series is released digitally but seriously, do yourself a favor and scoop up as many records from this imprint before it's too late.

Yeah,
The only problem with all the Trouble funk stuff is that it goes on FOREVER and the best stuff is live, not easy to mix in and out of but if you're just playing tracks a nice fade in and fade out works.

13.07.2010
There's a few things in this thread that i'm definitely hunting down. Love that Marvin Gaye edit that Karlos posted on the 1st page or two.

Loving the Troublefunk as well. ....can't beat a bit of Go-Go!
