Show Notes
Hi. How are you? I hope you and your loved ones are coping with the lockdown. Here in London we're into the third week of isolation, and thought I'd try and improve the mood by mixing up some great disco tracks so that we can all safely party on at home. And here they are; over two and a half hours of original, new, remixed and edited disco, mixed with love in London. Some of my personal favourites include our set starter, Bob Sinclar's collaboration with Robbie Williams, given a total disco makeover by Discoslap; Again & again by DJ Mark Brickman; Arthur Prysock's "When love is new" lovingly edited by DJ Laurel, a great track with a great pedigree with Gamble & Huff as writers and John Davis on production - lush. And there's a couple of tracks that pre-date the disco era including Frankie Valli's "The Night" which in its original 1972 form was a massive Northern Soul hit and features here slowed a little and disconated by Lolita. Then there's the legendary Dusty Springfield and her 1969 hit "Son of a preacher man" given the 4/4 treatment and a new funky bassline by Jakob Trice. And I love Rena Scott's 1979 hit "Super lover" with a subtle edit by DJ XS. Plus classics from Michael, Chaka, and Thelma. Enjoy!

I’m thrilled to include Cerrone’s latest collaboration with Asa Taccone of Electric Guest as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Cerrone’s seminal “Love In C Minor”.
Disco never left, it just kept evolving. This month's mix keeps the floor moving with a run of extended cuts, boogie dubs and club reworks — from Purple Disco Machine's glossy "Disco Cherry" and DJ Spen's rework of the El Coco classic "Cocomotion," through to fresher heat like T.Markakis's "Frisco Disco" and JØRD's "Get Funky, Get Down." Expect nu-disco, boogie and club-focused energy throughout, with a few surprises pulled from pre-release and DJ-exclusive promos along the way.
Welcome to May's Locked On Disco, which has a slightly deeper and soulful feel, featuring Sabroso, Michael Gray and Sian-Lee, Anane, Risk Assessment, Hotmood, Mark Funk, Danny Cruz and Anna Ingram, Jay Caruso, DJ Fudge and Kiko Navarro, Sean Scanlon and Da Lukas, and Curtis Zack. Enjoy!
Welcome to another hour of the very best in disco, mixed with love in London.
Hey - sorry I missed you in November, but I was busy working on new material, and I've included a couple of exclusive new tracks here for you in this mix. First up is a remix of a track from my first album. The track is called "Maybe I'm Gay". It's a song about self-empowerment and is for anyone who has ever felt othered. It's from the album "The Gift" which you can stream and download everywhere. Here's a link to Apple Music, and to Spotify. All proceeds from this album go to Alzheimer's Research. Right now I'm putting the finishing touches to a Spanish language version of the album. Each track is uniquely Spanish and I've used the language to create a new interpretation of each song. In fact some tracks are quite different. Plus I've written and recorded some new material only in Spanish. It's all scheduled for release on Friday 23rd January 2026. Watch this space.
