Disco Edits Special Mix - Discothèque Decadence DD008

Author: The Funk Assassin September 14, 2025 Duration: 1:07:37
This mix is a celebration of the edit – where funk, soul, disco, and hip hop get reimagined for today’s dancefloor. We open with Greg Wilson & Ché’s remix of The Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight” – a fresh, floor-shaking twist on a timeless classic. From there, it’s pure groove: The Reflex lifts Instant Funk to new heights, DJ Fudge adds fire to Sadam Ant, and Dave Lee delivers pure gold with Glenn Jones, Mtume, Harvey Mason, and Gwen McCrae. Ken@Work flips Curtis Mayfield and Tom Browne into modern floor-fillers, keeping the energy alive and kicking. The originals – Tom Browne, Gwen McCrae, Instant Funk, The Sugarhill Gang – built the foundation. The editors – Greg Wilson & Ché, The Reflex, Dave Lee, DJ Fudge, Ken@Work – keep it alive, fresh, and powerful in 2025. This is about groove, respect, and reinvention. Turn it up and celebrate the culture.

Each episode of The Funk Assassin is a curated journey through the sounds that built dance floors, from the foundational four-on-the-floor of classic house to the slap of a vintage funk bassline. This podcast is a direct line to the DJ booth, hosted by the curator himself, offering a weekly dose of rhythm designed to move you. You'll hear a carefully blended selection where the finest new releases sit comfortably next to undeniable classics, all punctuated by those killer remixes that make you rediscover a track. The focus is on a specific feeling-that uplifting, groove-heavy pulse that defines disco, house, funk, and dance music at its most decadent. It’s about the seamless mix, the energy between tracks, and that moment when the beat takes over. Consider this your regular invitation to lose yourself in the mix, a sustained hour of pure Discothèque Decadence served straight from the turntables. The Funk Assassin builds these sets with a selector's ear, ensuring every episode is both a party and a deep-cut education in groove. So, whether you're cooking dinner or need the perfect soundtrack for your commute, this podcast delivers a consistent, expertly-mixed injection of joy. Have Funk!
