I’m actually very prideful to say that OLIVER hail from the city of Los Angeles. Good to know we got our own little spice of disco that’s pushing the genre’s limits worldwide. This track in particular goes back two years ago and is one of the first remixes OLIVER have ever done. Labels keeping all the goodness from us…But yeah! There goes disco again with that timeless sound. The vocals from Aeroplane’s original song vibe so well with OLIVER‘s cutting edge jams and slamming bass.

I’m not sure if the amount of soulful disco tracks is cutting down, or I’m just not looking hard enough. Whether or not they surface doesn’t mean they’re not there. Lucky for LA, the disco revival revolution is still hard at work. At the forefront of the crew, we have Bastille. With French house being a heavy influence on their tracks, they take it to another level. Each song packs a punch of funk and bass that tends to catapult your mind to the timeless sounds of the 60s and 70s. While there’s still much work to be done for disco, it’s only a matter of time ’til it makes a full on comeback to the scene. We sure as hell aren’t giving up on it, and artists like Bastille keep that faith alive.

A very respectable aspect of this duo is that they offer pretty much all of their music for free on their SoundCloud. Head on over. Listen. Sample. Download. Enjoy!

The EDM scene is a perpetually forward moving machine. New genres are constantly being explored : old ones forgotten. After three decades of existence, the ever nostalgic disco scene lives on. Hips swiveling, fingers pointing and hands twirling, the disco ball gathers no moss. On the contrary:
Zapp – More Ounce To The Bounce[audio:https://controlaltdelight.com/Music/cwk/53%20More%20Bounce%20To%20The%20Ounce.mp3]

If you didn’t believe that dreams really do come true, now’s a good time to start. Out of nowhere and while I’m still digesting the immaculate Dirty Talk EP, OLIVER drops this new remix of the relatively overplayed Childish Gambino song “Heartbeat.” And in two shakes of a lambs tail, I turn the corner and Treasure Fingers delivers his OG rendition of the track! At the moment, I’m favoring OLIVER’s take. It slaps a bit harder and has some pretty epic synths. Treasure Fingers takes the Funk Award, though, and this should be no surprise. Hear for yourself:
Childish Gambino – Heartbeat (Oliver Remix)
Childish Gambino – Heartbeat (Treasure Fingers Remix)
Apparently this isn’t the legitlegit version? Here’s what Treasure Fingers said:
“ehhh just realized this version isn’t right. trying to get the right one to the label to update it. sorry everyone! that arp synth shouldn’t be running thru the entire track like that haha, my B!”

Some years ago the feelgood disco house movement disappeared from the dancefloors. In it’s place came lecherous electro and distortion.
Disco house may be dead, but I’m bringing it back.

It’s been about a year since I discovered that Disco has made its big return to dancefloors across the nation. The man who led my ears to this discovery is Ashley Jones, better known as Treasure Fingers and one third of Evol Intent. His extensive library of remixes infiltrate your limbs with groove and his original tracks automatically categorize themselves under the ‘feel-good’ genre in iTunes. This year he’s made his way around the globe, showcasing his skills in Europe, Australia, Asia, and opened up shows for A-Trak here in the U.S. We got the opportunity to share a few words before he took the stage at Avalon in Hollywood last Friday, hit the jump to see what he had to say.

YOLO Mentions bring attention to special
songs featured in that week’s YOLO List. Get the latest list here!
There’s something about this lounge style music that is incomparable to other genres and 20 year old Louis La Roche seems to have mastered it. You can kick back, feet up, blunt in hand relaxing to the background sax. You can be up, grindin’ and letting loose to the unruly bass lines with the foxy lady of your dreams. Or when you take that suga back to your place, you can get down and dirty with sexy vocal loops that put both of you in an ever loving embrace. Can ya dig it?
This guy’s got just about everything going for him. His Peach EP is stacked with five French house bangers that couldn’t showcase his talent any better. The song “Love” was mistaken to be produced by Daft Punk’s Thomas Bangalter until Louis quickly refuted and gave out the 320 to prove his point. It goes to show the level at which he produces his tracks! Louis’ mixes are among my favorite to listen to. He released his Scenery Mixtape on Gotta Dance Dirty in three parts, each one month from the other. All the tracks featured on the mixes are his own originals, edits, and reworks mastered together in literally the most beautiful way. I’ve been spreading Louis like mad recently, and he just so happened to release a few new tracks and a mix in the last month. Get your groove on to this like I know you will.
