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.

GE-OLOGY's exclusive mix for Rainbow Disco Club 2022 podcast:

If I had to choose one word to describe the theme of the mix, it would be TRAVELING. But conceptually, it's more about traveling in ALL its various forms...physically, spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Two years ago, the entire world came to a standstill due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and traveling came to an abrupt stop across the planet in response. Nation after nation closed its borders throughout numerous continents, and soon everyone found themselves confined at home isolated from each other, and our loved ones. And that experience has forever changed us. That alone is another form of traveling...one of pain, difficulty and growth that takes us to new places inside ourselves, even when we're not physically flying across oceans, or gathering with our beloved family and friends (due to social distancing guidelines, quarantines and safety restrictions). But life is a constant journey, so traveling (in a sense) has been a recurring theme for me in all the creative forms of my visual and musical expression, as well as throughout my life's experiences. [Traveling = Movement = Growth = Evolving = Rebirth]. Our journeys continue to shape who we are.

So the mix begins with an introductory exchange between Zenigata Keibu and Mine Fujiko (excerpt from Lupin III) which brings forth the subject of traveling--as the Inspector is in constant yet futile pursuit of Lupin (who had already left on a trip just ahead of Inspector Zenigata's arrival). This Japanese manga series cult classic, inspired by Arsène Lupin (the gentleman thief and detective character created by French writer Maurice LeBlanc) felt like the perfect dialogue to use as the introduction for the deep and heavy mix of vinyl selections to follow. The mix features some special records from my collection, amassed from decades of diggin' around the world [Japan included], which in itself is a byproduct of many great opportunities to travel--for which I'm deeply grateful. The 2nd record I play in the mix, aptly titled "Everybody's On A Trip" by Garden of Eden (the brainchild of gifted Birmingham, Alabama musician Ken Talley), was originally released as a single with limited local success back in 1979. Largely unknown for 28 years, it would later become a highly sought-after 7-inch for DJs and record collectors after Kon and Amir's 'Off Track' series release in 2007 put it on the map. But the mix delves even deeper with a mixture of other rare and obscure records (that have now become quite expensive), private pressings, and even some cheap 'under-the-radar' HEAT that spans the late 70s and early 80s, right up to the present. With a focus towards music lovers, dancers, audiophiles and collectors alike, it builds up slowly and seamlessly into a full-fledged dance-floor experience, navigating through the worlds of jazz, funk, disco, soul, island-funk, post-punk, Brazilian and beyond. It's a celebration of the world reopening again, and finally getting the opportunity to appreciate music together and dance at Rainbow Disco Club. Enjoy!

RDC 034 - GE-OLOGY - Exclusive MIX for Rainbow Disco Club in Japan !

Recording of most of my April 2022 set @frequencebarparis 

I decided to go for mostly 45s (with a few 12" still) because of a painful sciatica I have been carrying for several weeks. Enjoy!

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

GOSPEL MIXES

Marcel Vogel - Gospel Mix IV 23.12.2022

Really excited to share my opening set for Jeremy at Phonox in London! Tried to set the tone right with some soul/funk 7's before going into more disco and boogie and handing over to him with some house-ier bits.

This one meant a lot to me, playing with my favourite DJ in my favourite club so it is great to be able to document it here, hope you enjoy as much as I did...

Opening set for Jeremy Underground (Recorded live @ Phonox in Aug 2022)

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.

Mr Bongo Record Club Guest Mix - Admin & Raw Queen

It's been a while since we had a contribution to our mix series but we're back with a special one off from an old friend and long time supporter of the label - Mike O'Mara AKA The Wizard. Six years ago Mike blessed us with a killer mix and he's delivered once again. 

A backroom specialist, we're in classic Wizard territory,  treading the line between soul, street soul & boogie. 

Don't sleep.

The Record Dig Is Real!!

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!

GE-OLOGY & RED GREG (LIVE at The Pickle Factory, London)- Easter Sunday 2019 - Fever 105 6th bday!!!

Hey. Like everyone at the moment I have been spending a lot of time at home, so decided to do a mix (which doesn't happen very often for various reasons). With a vague idea of what direction I wanted to take, and after playing around and selecting lot's of different records and exploring various themes, a pattern began to emerge.
So here is the result, a quick mix with a decidedly strong Brit Funk vibe. I enjoyed the feel-good nature of the tracks, something we could all do with under the current conditions.
Made using two Technics 1200 turntables, a Bozak AP2 mixer and a stack of well loved vinyl.
Please comment, like and share if you are enjoying it.
Take care, be safe, and keep dancing!
Happy Easter x
