"Dance (Disco Heat)" is the title of a 1978 single by American disco singer Sylvester James, who performed using just his first name, Sylvester. The song became Sylvester's first Top 40 hit in the US, where it peaked at #19 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the fall of 1978 it also reached #29 on the UK Singles Chart. The song appears on his 1978 album, Step II.
A 12" single was released in 1978, with "Dance (Disco Heat)" as the A-side and "You Make Me Feel (Mighty Real)" as the B-side, and these two extended dance mixes proved to be very popular in the dance clubs at the time. The two songs held down the top spot on the Billboard Dance/Disco chart for six weeks in August and September of that year  and helped to establish Sylvester's career as a noted disco and dance music performer, both in the U.S. and abroad.

First Choice - Smarty Pants [Tom Moulton Remix]

The Rotary Edits -- where dusty Motown cuts, forgotten disco nuggets and unknown boogie grooves get reworked by the Crossfader King team.

Volume 4 gets after it in fine tradition featuring jams from Chicago dudes Magic Hat and Shield Your Eyes!

Side 1 sees Magic Hat whip the floor into a frenzy with "Get Up And..." -- no parking on the dancefloor y'all! Shield Your Eyes uses Side 2 to pump up an electro-boogie classic in "Bumpin' To Some Old School". Stay funky and enjoy!

Bumpin' To Some Old School (SYE Edit) [WARPed] Free DL!

This is my take on one of my favorite songs by Candi Staton.  I flexed it with Logic to keep it nice and steady and extended the intro to 32 bars.  I kept most of the original verses and choruses together, but moved more quickly from the all-the-way-to-drums breakdown to the keyboard outro.

One thing that made this one tough to mix in and out of my sets was the fact that the riff moves in 6s (rather than 4s like many other disco tunes.)  I 'solved' that little dilemma by reworking the keyboard solo at the end to move in 4-bar groups.  Finally, I faded the instrumentation into the drum and bongo intro for a nice outro (from the beginning of the keyboard solo there are 48 bars left in the track.)  I hope you enjoy it playing it as much as I enjoyed making it!
