Born on Nov 5 1946, Loleatta left us March 21 2011.
She was the quintessential Disco Diva. She had Izora Armstead and Martha Wash (AKA Two Tons Of Fun, Sylvester's backing vocalists) left and right of a podium of which she  held the number one spot.
We will forever feel "Stronger Together" with her "Love Sensation"
"...and time won't take our love awaaaaaaaaaaaay"  

Rest In Peace on the Other Side.

A proper re-edit of my favorite bits from both the LP and DP's official remix versions.

It still great music so hope you'll enjoy it nonetheless :)

NMH002 - Nicholas - "D-Vote"

By popular demand, recorded live at We Love, Space Terrace,  Ibiza on August 28 2011

WeLove Dimitri From Paris Space Terrace.28.8.11

This remix was part of the 2004 Japan only Soul Source Remixed Boogies CD (http://www.discogs.com/Various-Soul-Source-Remixed-Boogies/release/854086) It is a shorter and much stripped down version that features a lot of unheard original vocals from Sylvester's backing vocalists Martha Wash & Izora Armstead AKA Two Tons Of Fun. The longer, fuller, Maxi Disco Blend version came out initially as a Japanese Red promo 12", then on a "Faux" Fantasy Promo 12" and was finally made more widely available on my In The House Of Love compilation with Defected in 2006

Sylvester-I need you Dimitri From Paris Sunday Morning (extract)

I still can't believe this song was recorded 37 years ago ! I was given access to the original masters with all its separately recorded 16 tracks and everything sounded remarkably fresh. The drum beat as it was played by Earl Young became the blueprint not only of the Disco beat but later of the House beat. You can still here many elements of its groove on current productions. It was a huge privilege for me to remix the Love I Lost. Many musical and vocal sections were buried deep in the original 73 mix and i could put them back at the forefront. This is a snippet of the second half of my 11+ minutes remix.

The Love I Lost Dimitri From Paris Super Disco Blend (snippet)

This remix will NOT be released as DFA are moving on to the Rapture's next single "Sail Away" 
When the stems were made available for a remix contest (http://soundcloud.com/groups/how-deep-is-your-love-remix-competition/tracks?page=1) my friend Vito from Aeroplane who was working on remixing "Sail Away", pushed me to have a go at it.

I decided it wasn't right I enter the competition but DFA nicely allowed me to freely make my remix available.
As my followers, you were the first to be able to download it :) Thank you for spreading the word !

#FreeDL - The Rapture - How Deep Is Your Love (Dimitri From Paris Erodiscomix)

This song has been a very big New York Dance Classic. It was given a fresh run in 92 as borrowed by Ashley Beedle's Black Science Orchestra alias ("Where were you") And again in 94, Kenny Dope sampled it in the B-Side of the original Bucketheads 12" single ("I wanna know"). Yes the one that had "The Bomb" on the other side. Obviously the huge success of "The Bomb" eclipsed it, and it was withdrawn from subsequent pressings. This song was also remixed on a scarce bootleg release a few years back which was rumoured to be the work of Joe Claussell. My version is a classic re-edit of the very original Tom Moulton full length mix from 1977
