Daytime Disco & House Grooves Session - Discothèque Decadence DD018

SUNSET TO SUNRISE: Spring Equinox Special ☀️ A golden hour soul session by The Funk Assassin As day melts into night, this session captures that perfect in-between — where the sky glows, the fire’s lit, and the first groove hits just right. We open with a timeless anthem — instantly familiar, instantly warm — before drifting through soulful house staples, gospel-infused highs, and deep, velvet grooves that carry you from golden hour into the night. From the uplifting energy of Ain’t Nobody to the undeniable pull of Push The Feeling On, this is a journey built on feeling — not filler. Expect rich vocals, late-day warmth, and floor-ready soul from the likes of Crackazat, Michael Gray, Dave Lee, and Lovebirds — all carefully selected to keep things smooth, stylish, and moving. Think sunset reflections, basslines rolling in with the tide, and that moment when everything just clicks. 🌇 Perfect for golden hour… or losing track of time completely.

✨ Step inside a disco winter wonderland wrapped in velvet. DISCOTHÈQUE DECADENCE PRESENTS: CHIC NU DISCO CLUB MIX (DD014)** “Where CHIC’s mastery meets Studio 54 glamour — with sass tucked neatly in its back pocket.” We open by celebrating the architects of the groove: Nile Rodgers, Bernard Edwards, and CHIC — the heartbeat of disco, the masters of elegance, and the blueprint behind almost every iconic dancefloor moment that still matters today. From that spark, the night slips instantly into Studio 54 glitz — mirrorballs humming, lights glowing, sequins catching every beat. A flipped-classics celebration built from extended edits, velvet grooves, and that unmistakable New York swagger. Dimitri From Paris sets the tone with gleaming remasters of “Le Freak” and “I Want Your Love”, the perfect velvet curtain-raiser for a winter party in full shimmer. Ivan Jack & Master Mike glide in with “Rapper’s Good Times,” stitching disco royalty to early hip-hop cool, before Ken@Work reshapes “Good Times” into a sleek, strut-ready roller glowing with December warmth. The glamour peaks as Sister Sledge’s “Lost In Music” dissolves into Soulwax’s electric rework of Sylvester’s “You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)” — pure Studio 54 attitude: chic, confident, unstoppable. Dimitri lights the room again with his super-disco blend of “Street Player,” followed by HP Vince & Discotron turning up the heat with a revitalised “Disco Inferno” built for late-night sparkle. And to close the festivities… Anita Ward’s “Ring My Bell” floats in like the final dance at a winter party wrapped in velvet, glitter, laughter, and golden light. This is CHIC. This is Studio 54. This is the season — bright, warm, glamorous. This is Discothèque Decadence: Chic Nu Disco Club Mix. ✨ Save it. ✨ Share it. ✨ Ring that bell.

What started as a casual Madchester session to nod to Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield (Stone Roses & Primal Scream) slipped fast into a full psychedelic plunge through Andrew Weatherall’s heaviest basslines, dubbed-out shadows, and Factory-coded deep cuts. A detour that became the destination — the Manchester Effect in full flight. This mix moves through the key zones that shaped the city’s sound: the Madchester pulse, the Haçienda haze, the crossover where indie psychedelia, rave pressure, and low-slung groove blur into one continuum. The current that carried Manchester from rehearsal rooms to warehouse floors and into club culture’s long memory. All tracks selected and mixed by @thefunkassassin DD013.
