the love unlimited sound system

Courtesy of the lovely people at djhistory they have recently released a whole album of never-heard original disco, lovingly retouched by some of the world’s finest remixers.

In 1979 the cream of French and British session musicians gathered to record some of the most scorching disco music ever committed to vinyl. As a series of ‘Disco & Co’ albums on the Tele Music library label, this ended up as radio talk-show sound-beds and backing music for car chases on French cop shows.

Today an original copy of the Arpadys LP goes for £300, if you can find one. As a service to disco, DJhistory has unearthed the original tapes and recruited an all-star cast of splicing fingers – the Unabombers, Ray Mang, the Idjut Boys, Leo Zero, Mudd, Al Kent, Faze Action, Mudd and Toby Tobias – to polish them up for today’s dancefloors. The results speak for themselves.

All of the re-workings are top-notch with the love unlimited fave’s being Al Kents re-work of ‘Cold Coke’ followed closely by Leo Elstob’ string laden ‘Babys Band’
