The full-length album ‘Operation Disco' that Greg ‘Dr’ Packer has put together for Z Records. On an unstoppable run recently, the quality shows no sign of slowing down as Packer showcases his talent for splicing and dicing tracks. On the bonus second CD he supplies a continuous mix live from his operating theatre, packed to the absolute brim with Packer & other Z Records back catalogue favourites of his.

“It has been a huge honour working on the operation disco album compilation for Z Records which has been on my radar for three decades now and is possibly my favourite House & Disco label. Dave Lee is a big inspiration to me as his 1991 Single 'Do What You Feel' was one of the first records to appear in my DJ sets in my earliest days as a working DJ 30 years ago.
In 2013 I started to produce music under the 'Dr Packer' name and when I began doing the occasional remix for Z Records, I never imagined it would end up resulting in an album project. To be able to work on cover versions of some of my all-time favourite soul & disco songs such as 'You Can't Run From My Love' and some of my all-time favourite vocalists such as Leroy Burgess it is really a dream come true.
Dave Lee is an easy guy to work with and is always open to my suggestions which resulted in me remixing one of my all-time favourite tracks of his ‘Love Fantasy' which is also now three decades old. Not to mention possibly my favourite single from his 'Destination Boogie' compilation, the 80's underground classic 'Colors - Am I Gonna Be The One’ plus two brand new mixes of The Sunburst Band. Making this a very exciting album project with plenty of exclusives and re-masters of my older releases, not to mention my favourite gems from the amazing Z Records back catalogue.” – Greg Packer

Dave Lee teamed up with Omar. A gifted, prolific artist, Omar learned his craft classically, playing the trumpet, piano, bass guitar and percussion. A former principal percussionist of the Kent Youth Orchestra and later a graduate of the Guildhall School Of Music, Omar was awarded an MBE in 2012 for services to music.

Starlight is a gorgeous, mid-tempo dance record, with Omar’s silky vocals backed up with rich production: soaring live strings, groove-laden clav and a warm bassline creating a heady, inviting atmosphere. Almost viscerally life-affirming and unashamedly positive.

Off the back of the much played remix Dave Lee did of ‘We Go Together’ back in 2019 he has teamed back up with LA soul singer Raquel Rodriguez. This time for the track 'Undone' off her highly respected ’Sweet Side’ LP. Doing what the man does best, Mr Lee has restructured the track for the Disco Boogie dancefloor. Allowing Raquel’s dynamic vocal delivery to glide effortlessly over chunky Disco drumming, P-Funk bass & soulful synths before letting loose into a Roy Ayers-esque jam!

Time for a slice of steel pan filled jazz funk on Z Records. Dave Lee has reworked and re-tracked the vocals of Bah Sambas’s Save Our Freedom with a deft touch. Behind its summery, feel good exterior, this song deals with the important issue of the recent erosion of civil liberties and how we the people must not let governments sneak past restrictive laws that repeal hard fought for rights to protest, strike, and get paid a minimum wage. These mindful lyrics are set to an uplifting steel drum filled Caribbean disco groove with real drums, brass, and a full live band sound. If you could capture the audio equivalent of the sunshine glistening off the water as you dance in the heat, this is what you would end up with.

On the ‘Original Vibe’ mix Dave draws out the thunderous steel drums before the joyful brass sections dance over the silky vocals of Vanessa Haynes and ethereal synth tones. On the flip Dave Lee triple downs on the slap bass factor with his Brit Funk style ‘Let Freedom Reign Mix’. Beefier drums flam under blissed out vocal harmonies as he strips back the arrangement and locks in the groove, firmly planting your feet on the dancefloor with an unstoppable bass guitar riff courtesy of long term bassist partner Julian Crampton.

'I Want To See You Dance’ is taken from the debut album ‘Metamorphosis’ from AC Soul Symphony. An uptempo jazz funk cut aimed straight at the dancefloor. Think Heatwave and MFSB jamming together on stage with a 20-piece orchestra soaring away behind them.

HIGH QUALITY DL

I've been playing this version for a little while now, and it worked well everywhere.
DL here : https://youngpulse.bandcamp.com/
I featured a special intro by young genius Jacob Collier that I blended with Stevie's original.
I replayed drum patterns and synth bass all along the song, and as always, kept the essence and beauty of the original.
The track comes fully DJ friendly.

Enjoy & please share your comments.
Cheers / Pulse

"Italo"/Australian , DJ/Producer & Remixer based in Australia, Dave Mathmos, began hitting the ground running in the music realm in the 80th, and since that time has manifested into a versatile and multifaceted artist with his own signature sound and stylization. Known for his widely authentic blend of genres like Disco, Funk, Soul, Deep House, Italo Disco and Nudisco, Dave’s journey into music began in the producer’s chair where he started tackling an array of productions with House & Deep House tracks, and quickly began solidifying a style that shares equal parts originality and familiarity, giving his audience a taste of something fresh yet still identifiable. 
 
After several years of honing his craft and putting together a solid chemistry in his musical approach, Dave’s name became more familiar throughout his scene and began garnering positive reception throughout his scene. Currently, he has been releasing music with several Australian and European labels, as well as DJing in both continental scenes as well. His most notable work has been his edits and remixes that include nostalgic songwriting arrangements, grooves, and an innovative modern style that has successfully expanded his artistic merit in contributing his important work for both the Australian and European markets.  
 
On top of remixes, he has been crafting together his own material as well, orientated to several modern touches to deep house, balearic and nudisco to the wide spectrum of electronic music.
