Nu Disco & Soul: The Night Behind Last Dance

After releasing my short story Last Dance in February 2024 (available at my Substack, World as Ecstasy—link in my profile), I crafted this DJ set featuring Nu Disco and Soul tracks that resonated during the night inspiring the narrative. Each song holds significance, echoing the emotions and atmosphere of that experience.

This mix blends deep disco, soulful house, and downtempo grooves—the kind of tracks that hit deeper than the dancefloor. It’s a soundtrack to intimacy, tension, memory, and aftermath.

Tracklist & Insights:

6th Borough Project – "Just A Memory"
A deep, groovy track that encapsulates the fleeting moments of that night, mirroring the story's theme of ephemeral connections.

Davis – "You're My Everything"
Smooth and soulful, this song underscores the intense emotions and desires that permeated the evening.

Fred Everything ft. Vanessa Baker – "Friday" (Crazy P Remix)
An upbeat rhythm capturing the anticipation and excitement that Fridays bring—much like the pivotal moments leading up to the events in Last Dance.

The Juan Maclean – "A Simple Design" (Purple Disco Machine Remix)
This remix blends intricate beats with melodic undertones, reflecting the complex yet straightforward decisions faced that night.

Crazy P – "Witch Doctor" (Karma of Dove Remix)
A hypnotic tune that mirrors the enchanting and almost mystical vibe of the evening’s encounters.

Escort – "Animal Nature"
Energetic and raw, this track delves into the primal instincts and unfiltered emotions experienced.

Fred Everything – "Don't Nobody" (Hot Toddy Remix)
A sultry beat emphasizing the secrecy and intimate moments shared away from prying eyes.

Purple Disco Machine – "Emotion"
True to its name, this track evokes deep feelings, resonating with the highs and lows of that unforgettable night.

Purple Disco Machine – "Up and Down"
Capturing the rollercoaster of emotions and events, this song mirrors the unpredictable nature of the story’s progression.

Marvin Gaye – "I Want You" (Last Dance Extension)
A timeless classic that perfectly encapsulates longing and desire, serving as the ideal conclusion to this musical journey.
