Marcel Vogel aka Em Vee, needs no introduction! 

Label owner of both Lumberjacks in Hell & Intimate Friends, Marcel has been releasing killer disco & gospel orientated house music for well over a decade now, with the LIH label now running at 43 releases deep! 

Check out their Insta page & website for the latest releases, including the new heat from @jonnailiffe with remixes from @marcelluspittman & the late great @soulphiction_official

I've always been a fan of Marcel's DJ sets and was a regular follower of his show on Amsterdam’s Red Light Radio where he hosted some of my favourite DJs including Motor City Drum Ensemble, Hunee, Mendel and Rahaan. 

When he approached me about doing a guest mix I was absolutely thrilled to have him on board and this mix does not disappoint! Running at just over 2 hours, Marcel spins disco, funk, house & lots more and delivers some serious party vibes! 💃

Hit up Marcel’s page & catch him spinning live at the incredible @liverpool_disco_festival on 31st July 2021 🔥

The Guest Mix 010: Marco Viscusi

The Guest Mix heads back to Italy, this time we have pleasure of welcoming Marco Viscusi. 

One of Marco’s mixes popped up on a discogs page I was following and as soon as I heard it I knew he’d be a great fit on Musical Metaphors.  Here he serves up a heavy selection of italo, underground disco & afro funk - right up my street and I’m sure you’ll dig it too!

Marco Viscusi is a compulsive disco/boogie record collector and digger, who started djing in the 80’s in his hometown Salerno (Italy). 

His name popped up several years ago after doing podcasts for Ebonycuts and Million Dollar Disco, followed by many others in the next years (Discoboogie.com, Signal Hills on m2o radio, SoundScape on Ibiza Sonica Radio, Blind Faith Records to name a few. Member of the duo 180gr. Soundsystem, Marco counts numerous gigs in Italy (Camporella festival, Sound Department festival, Adults Only+25, Studio 54 in Bologna, Rocknyolk in Rome, Modular Space in Treviso among the others) and in Europe (Istanbul, Marsiglia, Malta).

MATT POND FREEROTATION RETROSPECTIVE 2017

We are delighted to share Skymark's beautiful disco, gospel & soul mix, recorded for the occasion of his recent Rush Hour release. 

SKYMARK - FIND A PLACE IN THIS CRAZY WORLD (RON TRENT REMIX) http://bit.ly/SkymarkRHM028

Ron Trent meets Skymark! Two masterminds at work. Ron remixes the mighty Skymark original, and elevates the listener to a whole other place like only he can. 

Trent treats us to one of his deepest, dubbiest jams in recent years - embracing the strength of the song while interweaving his own rhythm throughout.

The original track, here on the flip, featured on Skymark's 2015 'Wave From The Nucleus' LP- a beautiful song from the sun-kissed Swiss musician and producer who resided in Rio de Janeiro for many years, and now in Barcelona.

Volume 7 in the Open Soul Dance Floor Classics series by @san_lo

A few words by him:
"Remember the sweaty nights at Starline Social Club. Remember dancing shoulder to shoulder in a packed side room. Remember the nasty face-making funk, the neck breakin house music, that sultry boogie sound, the r&b throwback you can’t help but two-step to and that edit that took a familiar slap to a tropical place. Remember Open Soul."

Recorded in October 2020 - Oakland, CA
