@pierre-alex-2: this guy is just another level. you can still look for his tracks but it does not give you the heart and the skills

such a shame i did not have yet the opportunity to catch him live over all these years... simply amazing selection and pitch riding

I've become obsessed by this mix. Red Greg salute!!

WHAT IS THAT amazing first track please ?

I will always remember those moments at the Nomads festival when Red Greg would close down the Lumberjacks in Hell stage and time stood oddly still, the sunset behind the trees and a warm breeze driving through the crowd. After several hours of dancing, everybody on the dancefloor was familar with each other, the first five rows or so anyway. I remember Rahaan, Mendel, Dieuwer, Robbert, Sam and Bram of course, Kim, Chiara... and Ben! 
The thought ringing through my head, this is as good as it gets. No matter where else you chose to travel to, this is the perfect moment and nothing could make it better. 
All of these Nomads days and nights merge into each other, not least because we had Darren celebrate with us somewhere around 2-4 times. One year it was Sylvester's - Over & Over at ten to eleven, the second last song of the day, that captured on video, encapsuled every emotion that needed to be captured.
I am not able to recall all of the music from those sessions. I remember his legendary blends that have lead you into the next epic groover long before you even realized it's a new tune. Never missing a beat and forever leaving you with a smile and a "damn" on your lips. 
Where did that coming from and how much higher can we go?

Red Greg, take us back to those beautiful moments of freedom and joy.

Unfortunately Red Greg was not able to come down to Leiden for our last event at Wibar, in Leiden. But we couldn't be more happier with what local disco/house legend Marcel Vogel did for us that sweaty funky night in June. What a great set!! Marcel opened up the night and warmed up the club for our resident dj's O;Riordan.

Mareh Mix - Episode #49:  Rahaan

Next up in our Record Club Guest Mix series are Admin and Raw Queen. It's a back-to-back, Bristol meets Paris affair, resulting in a blistering mix of underground disco and funky sounds. Packed with heat, there’s cheap UK pressings, rare private 45s, under the radar gospel LP cuts, instrumental britfunk and much more. Thoroughly recommended and guaranteed to bring you up. 

Admin (Adam Wickens) is a DJ and producer that’s long been on our radar, with his ‘Step Into Light’ jam proving to be a particular favourite of ours. So much so we put the jazzy club joint onto the latest instalment of our Record Club compilation series. Based in Bristol, he founded the clubnight and edits series 'Community Disc-O’s’. The party is fuelled by a pure love for disco and hosted out of the backroom of Bristol’s The Crofters Rights venue. The night has blossomed into a platform for lesser-known DJs and the occasional international guest to stop on by. Previous guests to play have included Mark Grusane, Frederika, Island Times and Yadava. The ingredients are simple: two turntables, one rotary mixer, one mirror ball, a smoke machine and a bag full of disco, funk and boogie.

Another name to add to their international guest appearances is Raw Queen (Antoine O’Quin). A DJ based in Paris who took a trip to Community Disc-O's’ for their ninth party at the end of January. With an insatiable appetite for obscure private modern soul, gospel and disco rarities, Antoine quickly made an impression with his mixtapes, landing him coveted spots at Brilliant Corners and Spiritland. Back in Paris, Antoine can be seen DJing regularly in the city at musical hotspots Frequence and Bambino, and also co-runs the club night DiscoStormy (where Admin was a recent guest).

The mix was recorded at Admin’s place, the Sunday after the party. Mixed on a pair of Technics SL-1210 MKII running through an E&S DJR200, and post a big roast lunch, the idea was to capture some of the magic of the party. An extension of Friday's music that reflected the pace, energy and joy of that night. Like many B2Bs, there’s a raw feeling to the mix, with each DJ introducing their sound and keeping the other on their toes. 

Thanks to Admin and Raw Queen for giving us this big mix to share, a lethal pairing doing it right.

DISCO LOVE LETTER PART 5

Recorded "LIVE" on Easter Sunday, 2019 - Here's a nice long (just under 5 hours) taste from what was a beautiful 8 hour journey of sensational music curated on the fly by the super combo of GE-OLOGY and RED GREG (both amazing in their own right), whose individual and combined music knowledge, chemistry, insane record collections, and masterful DJ skills WOW'd the Selectors Stage audience at DEKMANTEL a few years ago when they first paired up to play back-to-back. Ever since, it's been a treat to see these guys team up on a few more occasions...and the 6th birthday celebration for the FEVER 105 crew was no exception! Pure musical bliss....enjoy!

Lumberjacks in Hell has been founded in 2010. Intimate Friends followed in 2013. For some people the difference or the need for distinction between these two is quite evident but to give you an idea. Lumberjacks is always 100% for the dance floor, inspired by the music from Chicago and Detroit which is not only reflected in the Artists we release. Intimate Friends is a headier affair. Soul, Hip Hop and House are all fair game. If you check the releases next to each other both labels have a distinct sound. And maybe a certain BPM range. This isn't saying that some of the music couldn't have appeared on either label but somehow it all makes sense to me. Thanks for supporting the music and artists we are releasing and don't hesitate to get in touch! We love to hear from you,

Marcel Vogel, Amsterdam 2017
