| Leeanna Ayla 14.08.2012 | Played some nu-disco stuff and got a little ADD in the last half of this mostly deep set. This is a good example of how even though a song is 10 BPM's slower it can still maintain the energy or even bring it up. https://soundcloud.com/photojojo/beat-infectious-44-13th-august |
| Lashawn Maycock 13.08.2012 | I do enjoy a bit of Nu-Disco, slips in nicely with Soulful & Deep House. I sound like a rep for Traxsource (don't work for them) but they are great for Nu-Disco. |
| Ming Devis 12.08.2012 | ^ What's with Nu disco and balloons? haha |
| Ming Devis 12.08.2012 | If nu disco extends to Tensnake then I love it. Old Maceo is pretty nice as well - |

| Celestine Porebski 12.08.2012 | I believe this fits well in here, a mix by a local Berlin DJ that I've been listening to quite a bit lately... http://soundcloud.com/22rockets/22rockets-nye-dj-set-wilde |
| Alla Bluemke 12.08.2012 | I typically play french disco nu-disco to funky tech house and it works great. |
| Laurel Litchko 12.08.2012 | i had a residency where i usually opened with nu disco. my work flow went like this: nu disco>indie dance, french house type stuff (ducksauce go go bizkitt) then the other resident would play according to our guest (we had everyone from Classixx, sammy bananas, to Le Castlevania). people really dug the nu disco stuff. its great for slower evening s, opening/warm up music, or if the crowd is a bit older it works well. |
| Ressie Losiewicz 12.08.2012 | NuDisco is the best genre in my opinion, plenty of funk and soul sounds in addition to some nice orchestral and brass based tracks (You can't beat a bit of brass). |

Nu-disco is a 21st century dance music genre associated with a renewed interest in 1970s and early 1980s disco,[2] mid-1980s Italo disco, and the synthesizer-heavy Eurodisco aesthetics.[3]

| Alfred Takala 10.08.2012 | Check out anything to do with Russ Chimes or Anoraak there both pretty great. newest Russ Chimes...crazy. |
| Celestine Porebski 10.08.2012 | I'm not really sure I understand what constitutes this genre. Nonetheless I recently realized how much awesome music is categorized under "Indie Dance / Nu Disco" at Beatport. Was quite a revelation. Especially since I now like to play all my Deep/Tech House stuff at 118bpm rather than 125 like before. |
| Randal Biza 10.08.2012 | It's my favorite genre of house music ever since I first laid my ears on Daft Punk's Discovery. I've been posting my favorite songs related to the genre here: http://www.discofilter.com/ If anyone else can recommend nu-disco music blogs, I'd be happy to check 'em out! |
| Alfred Takala 10.08.2012 | Love that mix. Pretty sweet song selection. |
| Leeanna Ayla 11.08.2012 | That is a mighty fine mix, especially the end. |

s-com-nu-disco-mix 'bout time we did another one of these |
| Noble Check 10.08.2012 | I mix it in with deep house/house. If it's a bit slower I'll speed it up within reason. Though some of it's already pretty similar in bpm. |
| Leeanna Ayla 10.08.2012 | There's a whole ton of different clubs and evening
s out there. If you're playing a dubstep evening
or if the club is known for techno then nu-disco isn't what you want to play. However there's ton's of clubs out there where nu-disco works well. It fits well in my deep house sets where I might want a different sound and type of beat structure. Again this largely depends on the song and nu-disco is a very broad category. |
| Vania Odish 10.08.2012 | do you find some of it a bit slow for clubs? but not really warm up music? |
| Leeanna Ayla 10.08.2012 | I play it some, basically on the principle that if it sounds good and I like it there must be others that will also want to hear it. |
