The next one is LCD & you know about them - after that is Crooked Man who is a consistently fantastic producer & has released on DFA. What I didn’t know was he was also part of “The All Seeing I” who had some big chart hits at the back end of the 90s. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_See...
Anyway if you haven’t heard it already this Crooked Man re-visit of one of those tracks is the absolute mutts nuts: youtu.be/wWlVyfNKASg?...
So after that we have Soulwax & you know about them & tiny bit of Moroder, mostly because of The Clash sample on the DJ Pierre remix. Next is Man Power remixing Queen, a great producer from the North East who releases on DFA, but works in all kinds of modes & is always excellent
Then there’s Theus Mago & Curses, this is a 2025 Optimo release - had to include a track from that label: store.dfarecords.com/products/no-...
& as you may know Keith who founded that label is very unwell - this fundraising comp is well worth checking out: thedarkoutside.bandcamp.com/album/ilx-an...
Fcukers are another pretty recent NY act carrying on in the lineage from the 80s to now - good set at Glastonbury & extra kudos for the Black Flag t-shirt: youtu.be/Su_Z_Ai41ck?...
Ian Dury & The Blockheads had to be included, they’re definitely in that post punk disco tradition (Pig Bag another very good candidate) but mostly because this is the first pop song I remember really liking when I was a nipper (Bleaching Agent worth checking too: bleachingagent.bandcamp.com/music)
That Ian Dury song is a pig to mix out of, heard Madmadmad on the radio & they fit the bill - London live mutant disco business, the EP’s out in a couple of weeks & they’re on tour soon: madmadmad.bandcamp.com/album/run
You know Working Men’s Club - again more UK stuff in that lineage (& they supported LCD on the 2nd week of the residency)
Friedberg supported when I saw them, this really great piece of Goth Pop was in loads of early versions of the mix: friedberg.bandcamp.com/track/my-bes...
Also excellent Bandcamp piece on Mutant Disco: daily.bandcamp.com/lists/mutant...
Just in time for Bandcamp Tuesday. Great track
So good!
