The stubborn and "akward" comments in the intro are a bit unusual but agree he is one of the great disco DJ's of our time

20 years ago, it was pretty much the dawn of the internet for me, I got my first email adress ( that i still use ) and slowly figured out how to order records via GEMM and perhaps an early EBAY. I have no idea how I ended up finding Million Dollar Disco and BringTheHeat but I did, and thats how I met Zernell, Rahaan, Boogie Nite, Sean Souds, Zaf, LoveOnTheRun and Al Kent of course. 
I wanna say Million Dollar Disco was incredibly sophisticated with articles and mixes and a message board. Even then the man in question had this unsatisfyable obsession with everything disco, strings and horns. I remember his Disco Demands  CD comps that later transitioned into epic releases on BBE, a crazy resource of deep disco and uptempo soul.
Later in when I moved to Berlin we've invited him to play our party LEGACY and even though the turn out wasn't great in 2005, he's played an amazing set. Of course. He leaves very little to chance and always brings the craziest edits of the craziest songs.
Later, we did another party when I had moved to Amsterdam. With more people and more Disco. And two of his edits even made it onto a Lumberjacks 12". 
Since then he's edited, produced, compiled, organized and endless amount of music and parties. 
A stubborn, akward, funny scottish trailblazer who's never betrayed his purest of love for Disco, so much so he's certainly in a league of his own.

Enjoy this mix and get familiar with one of the great Disco DJ's of our time!

Muzik & Rose in Tilburg Netherlands

Here's a mix I did in March of 2017 to highlight my new relationship w/ J.A.W. Family.

Welcome to J.A.W.

It would be rude not to. Really worked hard to meet my deadline this year to deliver you another Gospel mix for the holidays. When @captainrocklock reached out requesting one it was a wrap.
This goes out with love to all faiths and beliefs. Its a puzzle and all of us are a piece of it.
Its all about love, and be loved and help and be helped.
I wish you all wonderful holidays and a well deserved break.
We all have been through so much together over the last couple of years but the good news is, we are still here.
I hope my mixes help you to relax and smile and take everything a bit easier. ❤️

Nothing but love,

Marcel

Some Chicago disco royalty rolling through on the SB Guest mix series this morning... @Rahaan has been spinning house and disco since the 80’s and has amassed a truly enviable music collection in that time. 

He has also been earning plaudits for his production skills with some truly outstanding releases. Recently he has released on some key labels including Lumberjacks In Hell, Street Edits and Dopeness Galore. His tracks are steeped in dancefloor groove, music made by a DJ with the sole intention of moving that floor. So get the mix on for the next hour and a bit and let those sunny vibes wash over you.

Force Majeure 01 - Darryn Jones

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
