It's time to return to another Word Is Love show playing tribute to  special nights throughout the world and we return to Glitterbox Classics recorded on the weekend of Defected Croatia in August 2021.  I wasn't able to make the Festival however this tribute made up for it. It's terrific fun and captures the essence of the Glitterbox dancefloor. 

There are a number of well known artists on this mix with music by David Morales, Kathy Brown, Sandy Rivera, Frankie Knuckles, Mousse T plus a whole host of Classic Disco that you will recognise.

The mix is a combination of Disco, Disco House and Soulful House vibes and is a great party mix.

All tracks are selected and mixed by @thefunkassassin with Love.

Simon Dunmore: "This is my musical DNA. My journey. The artists, DJ’s, producers, labels and scenes that inspired me since my youth, that compelled me to DJ, to promote events, to work in the music industry and eventually start my own label. A selection that will go someway to giving you an insight into the music I love and continues to influence everything we aspire to achieve at Defected Records, as we celebrate 20 years in the House!"
