Nothing hits quite like a great bootleg, or a vindictive lawsuit from Donna Summer's estate, so keep things hush hush. This is the first (and a personal favourite) Dem Bones record, a label focused on disco remixes from the UK. Antony Daly, the co-producer, left a comment o the making of the track on Discogs, and now runs the 586 records shop in Gateshead, northeast England.

π«If it was played in a club during the late 60s and 70s, thats the only stamp of approval I need. A truly magnificent genre. Not necessarily slept on, but should be brought back to the clubbing scene (if in DC or NY area and aware of spaces that are genius enough to include this on their playlists, please leave recs below!)
Currently on repeat: Doctor's Order by Carol Douglas
Linked: A clip of Charlotte York from SATC dancing to this song in a club on Staten Island. These are the vibes, people; this is what we need to bring back.

πΏIf you need a deep cut dance album and ever find yourself wondering what early "indie sleaze" actually sounded like when you were at the club...

It's a perfectly serviceable house track at the start, it's got that classic little bongo pattern backing it, the keys are pleasant, the bass is well-mixed, whatever. You've already heard every instrument in the track by the time the breakdown has kicked in. But something funny happens in the drop that elevates the track. It's like my favourite house track ever for this ONE THING: the vocal refrain, "don't stop, you're moving me" is slightly rearranged. And that's all it takes! My life clicks into place and I start violently jumping around.
Damien and Olivier Sellier made the original track as United Friends of Funk, and Damien made the remix as Hyde Park Corner for VOX records, which was a side-label to the Vertigo dance music label. VOX is full of nice house tracks, and I highly recommend Damien's other records for the label under the pseudonym "Damiao Da Silva" for his two "Brazilian Studizel" releases.
The Selliers would then go on to form the label Dynamic Recordings a few years later, which is also worth checking out.

Nobody likes it when a DJ messes up what the beginning of a bar is on a track during a transition: everybody gets confused and doesn't know which beat to follow. Ironically, everyone loves when a track makes room for this to happen on purpose, just like this one does. The vocal goes on and on and on without a beat, and by the time you think you know what you're grooving to, you're taken for a ride when the rest of the arrangement kicks in. I also have a soft spot for jangly filtered guitars and that compressed, plugged-nose sounding bass tone. For more of that disorienting feeling, also try Daft Punk - Prime Time of Your Life (Para One Remix).
