Everyone loves Disco and Bargrooves is proud to present an unrivalled selection of the very best current and classic Disco and Disco-influenced House music from around the globe. Featuring cuts from the likes of Hercules & The Love Affair, Tensnake, Lovebirds and Jacques Renault, as well as previously unreleased material from Arthur Baker, Chasing Kurt and a sensational debut cut from Christopé and DJ Die’s Sure Thing project feature alongside some real gems from Candi Staton, Sister Sledge, Classixx and Freeform Five - making Bargrooves Disco the ultimate modern disco collection. In addition to the 30 unmixed and carefully complied tracks, Bargrooves Disco also includes two exclusive mixes from Bargooves' master curator and international DJ Andy Daniell; one re-establishing the seminal classics and the other, a collection of more contemporary tracks. Highlights include nu-disco champion Tensnake’s incredible remix of Hercules & Love Affair’s ‘My House’; a meeting of two pillars of modern disco that does nothing to disappoint. Elsewhere, the ultimate purveyor of the choicest disco cuts, Dimitri From Paris, reworks Sister Sledges’ inimitable ‘Thinking of You’, whilst Candi Staton’s ‘Hallelujah Anyway’ is left untouched to speak for itself; the ultimate modern classic from one of disco’s bonafide legends. Another noteworthy inclusion is from Melbourne’s master of the disco re-work, Late Nite Tuff Guy and his ‘Let Her Go’ Remix of The Tailors ‘Overdue’ featuring the sublime vocals of Ashibah. Its timeless disco sound, coupled with its flawless production makes it one of the standout cuts of this collection. And finally of course, no aficionado of the disco scene could ignore Jacques Renault’s reworking of Midnight Magic’s ‘Beam Me Up’; the cornerstone of any discerning disco jock’s set list. Representing the more modern strain of disco-influenced house are offerings from DJ Gregory, Kaine feat. Kathy Diamond and Alena. In the same category is Boe & Zak’s soaringly beautiful, disco-sampling ‘Looking For Love’ which we think is nothing short of a masterpiece. The same can be said of the Eton Messy-endorsed Lovebirds edit of Chasing Kurt’s vocal anthem ‘From The Inside’, soon to be released on Defected Records and set to be around well into the Summer. Making this collection even more indispensable is the inclusion of two more previously unreleased exclusives. Featuring the unique vocal talent of Jimmy Somerville, with the premiere of a new edit of the 80’s classic ‘I Believe In Love’ from American production legend Arthur Baker, with its hi-energy tactics is sure fire ammunition for any disco ‘floor. Likewise the eagerly anticipated ‘Holding You Tight’ by the effortlessly chic Sure Thing brings its infectious groove and stylised lyrical hook, will be sure to get the mirror balls turning. Representing a wide variety of both classic and contemporary sounds and at a very sensible price, Bargrooves Disco is the seminal disco collection for both the discerning clubber and DJ enthusiast alike.

The Bargrooves year would not be complete without our annual trip to the slopes. This new volume, Bargrooves Apres Ski 3.0, is the perfect place to kick off the New Year with a stylish mix of upfront house sounds as heard on the more discerning dancefloors and in the finer après ski lounges around Bargrooves’ favourite mountaintop destinations. Containing two bonus mixes from Bargrooves A&R, master compiler and veteran of vertiginous clubland, Andy Daniell, this edition is an album of distinct halves. The first mix suits a pacier descent or a full throttle venture onto the dancefloor whilst the second side provides the soundtrack to a mellower ride or a more soulful backdrop to loungier post piste activities. Big driving basslines for big air dominate the first mix. Route 94 enjoyed a breakthrough year in 2013 and here we include two of his productions; first up is his remix of MK’s 1992 classic Always, a huge floorfiller so far this Winter, which is followed by a compilation exclusive, Walls Come Tumbling Down. The unmistakable influence of one Ben Westbeech reaches across the album with his latest Breach hit, Everything You Never Had whilst his vocal features on the Jazzanova track I Can See. Right now, however, there is perhaps no bigger bassline than the debut from GotSome featuring the Get Along Gang: ‘Bassline’ has been building up a real head of steam across the club charts and is due its full commercial release this Spring. A thread of quality soulful voices runs throughout the deeper sounds of the second mix. From the word go, Camo & Krooked’s Loving You Is Easy joins hooky strings and big piano chords to a classic soul vocal, whilst Holding On from James Fox features the intimate voice of Vanity Jay. With a career track record that demonstrates his various different talents, Donae’O’s knowledge and experience of both house and R’n’B make him the ideal cohort to produce fellow R’n’B singer/songwriter Terri Walker on her track He Loves Me. Further highlights includes a pair of DFTD label tracks: J.Cub delivers a thunderous deep houser set off by the perfectly paced vocal of Sarah Story, whilst Berlin producer Aaaron’s well-rounded roller, Feelin’ This, picks matters up a little with its heavy snares before slowly introducing a distorted looping vocal that never fails to get people moving.

Bargrooves finishes the year off in true style with Bargrooves Deluxe 2014 - the latest selection of luxury house from the perennial and unequivocal leading compilation series at the stylish end of the house music scene. Featuring no fewer than 45 tracks, the list of acclaimed artists contributing their musical wares includes MK, Dennis Ferrer, Osunlade, Kings of Tomorrow, Noir & Haze, Deetron, Huxley & Shenoda, NiCe7, Dusky, Route 94, Sonny Fodera and GotSome. In addition the compilation will include three exclusive mixes from Bargooves’ master compiler and international DJ Andy Daniell to make for the ultimate accompaniment for any music fashionista’s festive season. Mix 1 delves into the deeper spectrum of house and kicks off with Osunlade’s stunning ‘Dionne’ before moving into Dusky’s recent Beatport chart-topper ‘Careless’, fast-rising star Route 94’s ‘Tell You Why’ as well as the incredible collaboration between Name One & Maxxi Soundsystem ‘One In Three’ before hitting the thunderous drop of Huxley & Shenoda ‘I Don’t Know’. Celebrating a more classic flavour the second mix includes the seminal ‘4 You’ from MK’s 4th Measure Men alias which sits comfortably amongst more contemporary anthems such as Guti & Mark Fanciulli ‘The Light’, FCL’s Gentil Remix of Rachel Row ‘Follow The Step’, Noir’s mashup ‘Around The Bane’ and the recent techy-vocal masterpiece from Yousef ‘I See’ (Shadow Child Remix). Finally, Andy Daniell hits you with some main room vibes with Kings Of Tomorrow featuring April ‘It's Only You’, a reworking of NiCe7’s ‘Bassline Soldiers’ by burgeoning German producer Sable Sheep before Copyright’s summer hit ‘Sacrifice’ makes way for a remix of Lee Edwards & Storm’s ‘Take Me Away’ from DJ Mag Best of British 2013 Breakthrough Act nominees No Artificial Colours. Comprised of the very best of what 2013 has had to offer, as well as offering some of the freshest cuts for 2014, Bargooves Deluxe 2014 is simply house music of the highest quality. Representing a wide variety of en vogue sounds the compilation is the perfect ‘party in a box’ for both the discerning clubber and DJ aficionado alike.
