Mostly tracks in minor keys this week with a few recognizable edits. Lots of foot traffic, so I wanted to keep them engaged with familiar, accessible sounds. A few of these tracks I've been practicing with and getting used to outside of mixing, and they happened to be in complementary keys with each other. This one was impromptu again, and it seemed to work out. Took some risks that payed off.

Our other resident, Cardboard Psychic, played something a little more ethereal than usual. It was inspired. He brings something special and unique every week; but you just gotta be there. Not just to witness and enjoy it; but because he doesn't always record is mixes. Treat yourself and hear him in person on his next round.

If you enjoy it, feel free to comment, like, and share!

Also, if you like any of the tracks, I encourage you to buy them in lossless format and find a dark place to listen to it with a good sound system or a nice pair of headphones. These artists are giving us their soul so we can make it another day with that fleeting sense of inspiration; so be sure to buy their merch if you dig them and check out their shows/ events if you can!

🎚️ DISCOTHÈQUE DECADENCE PRESENTS: STUDIO 54 FLIPPED (DD005)
“Turning the sound of Studio 54 on its head…”

This isn’t your typical disco revival. This is Studio 54 flipped — a glitterball-splashed rework of dancefloor royalty, rebuilt with house heat, nu-disco flair, and edit culture energy.

We kick things off with a killer mashup that fuses “Rapper’s Delight” with CHIC’s “Good Times”, courtesy of Ivan Jack & Master Mike — a nod to the birth of hip-hop and disco’s golden groove in one seamless jam.
Then Ken@Work steps up with a slick remix of “Good Times”, reshaping a classic into a strut-ready roller.
The fire continues with Purple Disco Machine, Benjamin Ingrosso & Nile Rodgers on the outrageously funky “Honey Boy (Extended Version)”.
We roll into Kylie Minogue’s “Tension”, given a shimmering electro-glam remix by Chromeo, and a twilight anthem in Shakedown’s “At Night” (Purple Disco Machine Extended Remix).
Also packed in the crate is a bouncing remix of Kool & The Gang’s “Fresh” from HP Vince, bringing neon-tinted boogie to the dancefloor revival.

We round things off with a high-voltage twist on CHIC’s “Freak Out”, with Pitbull and Nile Rodgers closing the party in full hands-up style.

And that’s not all — this mix is stacked with edits and grooves from the likes of Nathalie Duchene & Yuksek, CHMI, Michael Gray & LaMay, Javier Penna, DiscoRocks, Ladies On Mars, Sammy Deuce, and the ever-slick Crazy P.

Modern disco. Golden soul. All attitude.
This is Discothèque Decadence: Studio 54 Flipped.

👠✨ Save it. Share it. Freak out.

Nu Disco Club Mix - Discothèque Decadence DD005

Disco, is the roots of house music.
I tryed to figure out what are the best disco track ever, in order to share it.
I did a 1000+ ranking mainly based on the one already done by discomusic.com website. (now closed)
- A top 700 based on 70's & 80's Disco Djs ranking of this era.
- A top 500 based on discomusic.com member's votes.

I add to these ranking 5 top 100 given by different Gen AI : Chat GPT, Mistral AI, Gemini, Claude & Deep Seek.
I supress the mistakes they have made and create a final ranking.

Now i have a ranking, i start a mix series of these best tracks, and broadcast them on ONIB Disco radio.

Here is the play list of the first one.
1 - Alec R. Costandinos; The Syncophonic Orchestra - Romeo & Juliet (Acts I & II) [Casablanca - 1978]
2 - Voyage - Souvenirs [Sirocco - 1978]
3 - Jackie Moore - This Time Baby [Columbia - 1979]
4 - Cerrone - Love in 'C' minor [Malligator - 1976]
5 - Donna Summer - MacArthur Park Suite [Casablanca - 1989]

TFU Dirty Dozen Vol. 6 – Ash Lee (2008)

This mix was recorded back in 2008 as part of the Dirty Dozen CD series for TFU. It was one of the first curated sets where I really started to explore layering acapellas throughout the mix, something that’s stuck with me ever since. Most of it was mixed on vinyl, with CDJs used for layering vocals. One of the acapellas is even reversed… and somehow it worked.

The sound I was playing leaned into bass-heavy foundations, punchy drums, and a slightly left-field take on what was dominant around that time. I was trying to avoid the obvious records and shape something that felt like my own.

Featuring tracks from AKA The Junkies, Freeform Five, Wahoo, Yuksek, M.I.A., Boris D'Lugosch, Acid Kids, Dom Rimini, Headman, Captain Comatose, Cazals, Spektrum, Birdy Nam Nam, Goose, Crookers, Erol Alkan, Dopamine, Revlover, ZZZ and more.

Hope you enjoy!

Ash Lee

Ash Lee is a Melbourne-based DJ with over two decades experience, shaped by a long-standing connection to vinyl culture and an expansive music library built over time. His approach is rooted in deep musical knowledge and a keen sense of what a room needs, balancing nostalgia with the new. His sets reflect both a deep respect for the past and a forward-thinking ear, always aiming to strike the right balance between discovery and familiarity.

Ash’s sets are anchored in house and disco, shaped by everything from classics and modern reworks to a discerning palette that leans into deeper territory. Depending on the environment, his sound broadens to include elements of nu disco, funk, and downtempo, always delivered with a clear sense of musical direction.

His approach is open-format and instinctive, shaped by years of listening, learning, and refining. Each performance draws from extensive experience across club, event, and private settings. Equally comfortable working with vinyl or digital tools, his focus is always on flow, feeling, and creating a lasting connection with the audience.

As the son of a professional flamenco singer, Thomas has always been surrounded by music.  Exposure to flamenco influenced him because it has a dynamic range of emotions—from the "deep singing" style of cante hondo, to the more lively alegrias.  He has also worked in the corporate, independent, and online music industry for a number of years.  At one point he was a Content Manager for the Electronic Music genre at MP3.com, where he screened over 500 songs per day.  Exposure to a wide range of music explains the range of genres in his mixes—he uses whatever carries the mood.  From listening to Umm Kulthum's "Enta Omri" in his childhood, to New Wave and  Industrial as a teen, it became difficult for him to stick to one sound. Though vinyl was his original format of choice when he started in the 90s, the use of digital mixing has helped him better form soundscapes to expand your headspace.  Let him play with your moods for a spell.

Dj since 1992 in the north east of the UK at various venues/events, although doing it for fun and also just for the love of music these days.

All of my work and mixes are done with Traktor hardware and software.
