My friend/brother Dragon Wil inspired this 6-hour session by sharing a song by the group "First Choice." This song took me down memory lane when, in the vibrant tapestry of New York City during the mid-70s, a revolutionary sound was brewing long before Hollywood caught on, the phenomenon we lovingly referred to as Hustle Music.

Before the glitz and glamour of Hollywood caught on, before the world knew its name, the sound pulsating through the veins of New York City in the mid-70s was raw, untamed, and simply known as "Hustle Music." This sound, characterized by its irresistible four-on-the-floor beat, syncopated basslines that made your heart race, swirling string sections, the punch of brass and horns, and the futuristic shimmer of electric pianos, synthesizers, and electric guitars, would later be branded as Disco. Years later, a resurgence of interest in these sounds, blended with the synthesizer-heavy vibes of 80s European dance music and the early electronic dance music of the 90s, gave rise to "Nu-Disco," a genre that continues to evolve and invigorate dance floors.

For me, it all began with Esther Phillips’ soulful rendition of 'What a Difference a Day Makes,' the first record I played at a party that ignited my passion for DJing back in the summer of 1975. With only a trusty Sony mixer lacking a headphone jack, I ventured into the world of mixing. Since childhood, music has been my constant companion, but crossing the threshold from merely listening to expertly blending tracks became a feverish obsession.

The thrill of merging two songs while wordsmithing them to convey a message and watching the dance floor come to life is a feeling like no other. It was more than a hobby; it was my way of connecting with the vibrant cultural pulse of the city, a passion that would resonate through the years as the soundtrack to countless nights filled with laughter, movement, and the unique rhythms of life. In those moments, I wasn't just playing music; I was crafting an experience, one that mirrored the joy and resilience of the very city that gave birth to it all.

This playlist serves as a time capsule, showcasing the evolution of communication and societal norms through music. Starting with Donna Summer's "Love to Love You Baby," it captures an era of genuine emotional expression marked by intimacy and vulnerability, contrasting sharply with the exaggerated displays often found in today’s music.

Honest communication is a recurring theme, as seen in tracks like "I Want You Back" by the Jackson 5 and Sister Sledge's "We Are Family." These songs emphasize authenticity in expressing emotions and building relationships, while also addressing complex social issues like poverty in "Papa Was A Rollin' Stone" by The Temptations.

Exploring love and longing, tracks like Michael Watford's "So Into You" evoke the depths of relationships, while songs such as Kleeer's "Get Tough" infuse social commentary into infectious grooves. Meanwhile, Ten City's "My Peace of Heaven" and The Spinners' medley highlight the importance of community and reconciliation.

As the playlist progresses to contemporary tracks like "Love In C Minor" and "Do It To The Music," there’s a marked shift towards rhythm over lyrical substance, which diminishes emotional depth.

Concluding with Esther Phillips' "What a Difference a Day Makes" and Donna Summer's "Last Dance," the playlist reflects on the enduring power of music and its ability to foster connection. It underscores the loss of authenticity in our digital age, urging a return to genuine communication and emotional resonance in a world often focused on image over substance.

For me, it all began with Esther Phillips’ soulful rendition of 'What a Difference a Day Makes,' the first record I played at a party that ignited my passion for DJing back in the summer of 1975. With only a trusty Sony mixer lacking a headphone jack, I ventured into the world of mixing. Since childhood, music has been my constant companion, but crossing the threshold from merely listening to expertly blending tracks became a feverish obsession.

We are back with another chapter in our ongoing series of unearthing smooth vibes from all over the world, this time we go back to the FUTURE for you with:
THE SUNSET MANIFESTO Volume 2.

TSTD NEO is the outlet we are using to unearth modern laidback, smooth, slow sunset disco vibes. We are looking for a warm mix of soulful Westcoast/Balearics and modern electronic production. Because for us TSTD always has been about a vibe/feeling, not a certain time period in musical history.

We are happy and really excited to announce the following passengers are on board with exclusive tracks: Poolside, Woolfy vs Projections, Prep & Eddie Chacon, Turbotito, Young Gun Silver Fox, Lovetempo, Kimchii, Goodvibes Sound, Joel Sarakula a.m.m.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
After a five year break mainly concentrating on the late 70s/early 80s Westcoast Soul/Yacht/AOR sound, we finally dive deep into the modern world of our beloved sister-label Too Slow To Disco NEO (for the third time after 2018s TSTD NEO - En France and 2020s The Sunset Manifesto excursions).
But of course it wasn’t a real 5 year break since the first Sunset Manifesto compilation, as in the meantime we also released a few digital TSTD Neo singles, and – more importantly - our "Too Slow To Disco NEO - FM" playlist on spotify (handcurated by Dj Supermarkt every week and now hosting more than 1500 tracks of mellow, modern sunshine vibes) was growing steadily and becoming a new, important fixpoint in the TSTD musical universe.

So it makes sense that we present the "crème de la crème" of new slo/mo Nu-Disco/Sunset Disco/Daytime Disco acts in the TSTD format, a luxurious compilation, with artists from all across the globe: Not only from the two homelands of that modern slow disco sound, Los Angeles/California and France, but also from Beijing, Montreal, Mexico, London, New York, Stockholm, Rotterdam… the moon, you name it! This music is more a state of mind, a feeling, then a geographical thing.

LIFELIKE returns with a powerful new single inspired by 80s breakdance culture.

Pioneering the « nu-disco » sound, years long before that kind of sound started to invade the worldwide indie charts, Laurent ASH aka LIFELIKE’s early productions (« Black Chess » EP on the legendary “20000ST” record label) soon pricked the ears of the likes of DJ Falcon and Thomas Bangalter (from Daft Punk), and playlisted his record during their "Together 2002 tour", which if you’re a young Producer, is basically the equivalent of getting all six numbers in the lottery, finally introducing him very quickly into the very small but highly talented "French Touch" family. 
A french family of parisian artists that includes Daft Punk, Justice, Alan Braxe & Fred Falke, Air, Cassius, etc..
Almost every records he released since then gained instant support from BBC Radio 1’s Pete Tong and Annie Mac as well as the DJ bibles such as DJ Mag and Future Music Magazine, calling his productions “a sure-fire hit on dance floors” ,“walking that smooth and sexy line between nu-disco,new wave and funk” and "a master of crafting credible dance floor beast."
 Those records includes "Discopolis", released on Alan Braxe's seminal label "Vulture", a massive inernational club hit, selling a total of more than 100000copies, topping the UK Top 40 chart at #18, Belgium Dance Chart #1, Germany/France Dance Chart #5, followed by "So Electric" released on Wall Of Sound, "Sequencer" (vulture), "Love Emulator" released on his own label "ComputerScience", or "Dont Stop featuring A-Trak" that was recently released on Kitsuné.
As a remixer, records companies quickly noticed LIFELIKE’s ability to turn any track into a dance floor hit  and it wanst long until other artists like Chromeo, Sia, Empire Of The Sun, Vitalic, Moby, Classixx, The Presets, Cerrone (more than 40 remixes released) to name a few of them, came to knock on his door trying to secure a remix from him.
On the production side, Laurent has been helping some new acts to succeed, adding his magical touch to the UK indie band "Is Tropical" first album and the french electro-pop band "Jupiter".
As a touring entity, LIFELIKE has touched down all over the globe. From Europe and Australia and Asia to America, and club to festival he’s been DJing alongside everyone from Fred Falke, DJ Falcon, Bloody beetroots, Vitalic, Russ Chimes, Oliver, GrandMaster Flash, Madeon, Alan Braxe, Ritchie Hawtin, Steve Angello, DJ Medhi, and many others. .
When LIFELIKE isn’t on tour, you’re likely to find him tucked away in his studio, running his own record label "ComputerScience", and most recently finalizing his debut full-length album "Electronic Dreams" signed to Capitol Music/Universal, featuring the likes of Chromeo, A-Trak, Oliver, Electric Youth & Audio District.

I'm a person who loves music and creating mixes of full-length songs for friends along my travels. I like to spin with no setup, just playing off the top of my head while in the moment.  

Currently, I am sharing the mixes with my long-time friends and a new audience. I come from listening to the great DJs at the Gallery, The Garage, The Loft, The Shelter, Zanzibar, The World, The Tunnel (early years), Baseline, Funhouse, The Fever, Bonds International, 1018, on WBLS (early 80's), and too many street parties to mention.  These were the times when people danced (worked it out) all night into the morning and not just bobbed side to side. 

My love for music started in the early 70s as a way to channel my energy in a more positive direction.  Music became my teacher about life's many situations. I gleaned a lot from music, which became a significant part of my lifestyle. Later my older brother started me DJing for private parties in NYC.  

All that training led me to DJing in my travels. Traveling since 1981, I visited 49% of this big blue marble sharing the NYC flavor.  This was when most NYC DJs didn't venture outside of the tri-state area making me a unique commodity in my travels to Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, the Middle East, and too many more places to mention here.  None of these nights would have been as memorable if it wasn't for the support of my many friends worldwide!  All of you should stand up now and take a well-deserved bow!

I have DJ'd as the recording media changed through the years from 8-track, reel to reel, cassettes, DAT, Minidisk, CD, MP3, and so on ... This site is just a place to share my music of live club sessions (typically 5-8 straight hours of DJing) with my long time friends who have asked for me to convert their analog recordings to digital format for old time sake. You also get to experience my evolutionary growth in this field.

My humble mixes have the occasional recorded mistakes (record skips, rough mixes, etc.). This is unavoidable when recording live shows directly to the media as I honed my skills through the years. There are not any post-production corrections in the work, you hear the good, the bad, and the ugly mixes. 

All mixes were recorded live, mixes earlier than 2001 went direct to magnetic tape, and after 2001 were digitally captured while staying true to the music, and the dancers' way of life, as my mind's eye feels about the mix at that place in time.  I also made all attempts to pay respect to the artists who created the sound. 

The venue is my church, the DJ booth is my pulpit, and the music is my sermon.  Come on in and listen as I pour out my heart and preach!

Here are a few of the many club nights, months, and years of DJing music. If you listen intently to the song's words, arrangement, and feelings, you might get to know a part of me better.  :-)  

Enjoy and remember to join SoundCloud (it's free) so you can follow me, like it, repost it on your page, and comment on the track.  Brighten up someone else's day by sharing the party with like-minded people by socializing on your platforms!!!!
