My beautiful daughter recently asked me what music I listened to when I was her age which inspired me to create this series of mixes. Thanks to some talented DJ friendly producers and remixers I give you The Ebony Sessions Volume 11. A bunch of disco, funk and soul influenced edits blended together for your listening pleasure!

This one’s for you Jeff!

I was arranging some tracks for this mix when I heard the awful news regarding Jeff's sudden passing and felt it only right to pay my respects in the form of both of our passions…music! 

I know Jeff was mostly well known for his hardcore rave sets but I also know he had a soft spot for soul and funk so with that in mind I’ve mixed together a full 6 hours of more chilled out 80’s club classics including one of Jeff's faves from that genre, Chaka Khan - Ain’t Nobody around the 2hr 56 min mark.

I’ve admired probably Plymouth’s longest serving and unbelievably talented DJ for over the last 30 years and Jeff will always hold a special place in my heart. An inspiration on and off the turntables and one of the key people to encourage me to start DJing myself.

Massive thank you to Peachey, Lee J, Roy, Rich Emery and all of the others artists who provided the amazing piece down the side of The Warehouse used in the vid...total respect!

RIP Apache….Thank you for your music…We miss you! https://www.mixcloud.com/jefferson-vandike/

Hed Kandi 15 Years 'Disco Heaven' Mix Glen Horsborough

Anybody who has followed me over these past few years will know that Michael Gray’s original production’s and remixes feature heavily in my sets. Everything he touches turns to gold and I look forward to every one of his releases. I have followed Michael’s career for almost 30 years now and decided it’s definitely time I paid tribute to his masterful work. I wanted to create a compilation combining old with new, mixing some of my favourite tracks from his early days as his aliases Robot man and Full Intention with music partner Jon Pearn such as Ready For This, Tears, So In Love With You, I Love America and Sweetest Day Of May with some of his latest releases like his excellent remixes of Reel People - Can’t Stop, The Sgt. Slick version of the Adeva classic - I Thank You and Donna Allen’s - Serious as well his his latest releases on his own Sultra Record Label like Invincible and the fantastic Promo version of his latest release - Never Let You Down. I wanted this tribute to feature tracks that I haven’t previously used in any of my sets already available on Soundcloud, the few tracks that have already featured, on this one I have played the equally as good Dub versions. The set has 32 amazing tracks, 5 of which are as of yet Unreleased DJ Only remixes. I really hope everyone enjoys listening to this mix as much as I have compiling and recording it. I would also like to say a huge thank you to the main man himself Michael Gray for all of his fantastic hard work over these past decades for giving us all this wonderful music, I Can’t wait to see what you produce in the future !!

🎚️ 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

🌊 Close your eyes...and move is the third and final chapter of Tom Lysar’s Close your Eyes series. After the stillness and depth of the first two tracks, this piece takes the journey further: from pausing and remembering into pure motion.

Gentle sound waves open the track before a warm, clean four-on-the-floor beat rises. Flowing synths, minimal percussion, and subtle echoes blend into a hypnotic groove. A whisper of spoken word floats above the atmosphere, while streaks of light in sound symbolize movement — calm, focused, driving.

✨ This track completes a sonic trilogy that carries you from stillness to memory and finally into motion — perfect for deep nights, introspective moments, and hypnotic dancefloors.
