Black Light Disco shins up the myhouseradio.fm Christmas Tree with the aim of getting your festive holiday week started with a bang. 

Our resident and BLD Chief Elf, Esteban was in the Gift Wrapping Room here in BLD Towers making his list (and checking it twice) to see who’s been naughty or nice. Spoiler alert - he’s nowhere near as judgemental as the ‘big fella in red’ so for the first hour he was dishing out the disco gifts for everyone. Expect crackers from the likes of Uptown Funk, Da Lukas, Pavel Svetlove, Prospect Park & Dave Lee, Ken@Work, Romy Black and Agent Stereo to name but seven.

For the second hour we have a very, special guest taking over the tinsel-laden decks - the one and only Ruff Diamond! 

Chris ‘Ruff Diamond’ Robinson is a widely acclaimed British producer, DJ and musician. Described by some of the key figures in the music industry as being a musical genius who combines versatility with vision, innovation, soul and passion, he has built up an impressive list of major and independent artist credits, transcending genres ranging from commercial R&B to Underground Electronic, Disco and straight up West Coast Funk, generating millions of worldwide record sales and streams.

Chris’ career has spanned over two decades since starting as a young session musician on the vibrant music scene in Manchester. Making his name as a ‘go to’ Funk guitarist, he has gone on to record and perform with a plethora of successful Artists including Maxi Priest, Grandmaster Flash, The Shapeshifters and Groove Armada.  His sound soon alerted the attention of USA label executives, and huge opportunities started landing from the other side of the Atlantic. 

As Ruff Diamond’s sound has evolved, his lifetime love of Boogie, Funk and Disco has very much come to the forefront of everything he is doing, and he is now making a significant impact in the genres as a Artist, Producer, DJ, and Label Boss having founded Manchester based SupaEarth Records in 2018. With recent releases on respected labels such as Big Love, Midnight Riot, Strictly Rhythm, Masterworks, Hot Digits, Rare Wiri and his own imprint, he is now becoming a man in great demand working on projects for the most coveted labels. 

We are absolutely delighted to land such a talented cookie for his BLD debut and we know you’re going to love what he has in store for us!

As always, please give that ❤️ a little tickle if you enjoy the show, and please give us a share if you'd be so kind! And don't forget to check out the amazing artists, producers and labels featured on this week's show.

WAITED 30 YEARS TO TO PUT MY FUNKY TO WORK

The Black Light Disco show airs exclusively on the #1 house music station on the planet - myhouseradio.fm. Tune in every Monday from 2pm-4pm EST, 7pm-4pm GMT, 8pm-10pm CET. 

The idea of Black Light Disco became a real thing when a few like-minded DJs and producers came together to put on a night showcasing the very best in disco, house and funk and everything in between. Our ethos is based around a very simple concept: GOOD MUSIC, GOOD TIMES with GOOD PEOPLE. We announced ourselves on a gorgeous sunny Saturday in June 2019 with an all day and night party in Liverpool’s thriving Baltic Triangle area. It was the start of something very special. 

We have a solid core group of musical talent residing in BLD Towers hailing from England, Scotland, Wales, Northen Ireland and Italy -  providing perfectly cooked grooves and juicy basslines. 

The BLD team comprises of Esteban, Goz (Spin City), Pookie Knights, Cole Kutz (Opentempo.fm) De Gama and Fingerman (Hot Digits) – clocking up decades of DJ’ing and dancefloor experience between us. As individuals, the BLD team have been producing consistently high quality sets over the last few years. Now, as a collective, the aim is to make Black Light Disco THE place to promote new music and to bring you the very best in established/up-and-coming artists and producers in the sunlit uplands of sonic pleasure. 

In January 2020, we launched a weekly show on THE biggest house music FM radio station in New York, MyHouseRadio.fm (also available digitally at www.myhouseradio.fm).  The Black Light Disco Show airs every Monday exclusive to MyHouse Radio between 7pm – 9pm GMT (2pm -4pm EST), bringing you the finest in disco, funk and boogie; all delivered by our expert in-house Sonic Consultants (resident DJs) with guest mixes from the hottest producers, DJs and artists out there right now.
