A
33 RPM

1 Don't Call The Preacher         5:46  122 BPM
"Love Hangover", Dianna Ross, ,1976

Hypnotic mix of a hypnotic classic. The music references jazz from before WWII and the beat includes second line rhythms, some of Dianna's best vocals, so sultry, almost invoking Bessie Smith. This record has been used since its inception to take people to another plane, where time is eternal, and you are right there in the middle of the groove. This mesmerizing mix highlights the timeless facets of a timeless classic.

2 I Need You Bassgroove         7:13    123 BPM
"I Need You (unreleased Tom Moulton mix)", Sylvester, 1980

This is about as Gay Marvine as it gets. First it was a song, a single, even has another remix single released years later, but still this mix never was officially released. Presumably the original source is a reel to reel, recorded to acetate, later recorded by someone who that acetate was not made for and unofficially released as a "promo mix". A very memorable string pattern and wonderful groove from Sylvester highlighted in a monster bass groove with a glorious arrangement by the legendary Tom Moulton, and edited and remastered by Gay Marvine for your ears and dancefloors here.

B
33 RPM

3 Disco Daily        5:06       130 BPM
"Daily Disco", Yello, Claro Que Si, Raplh, 1981

One of those kind of incredible groove pieces with a slightly wavering pattern that makes you want to climb the walls, driving the energy of the dance floor over the edge and into their minds. Kind of like Yello's take on Pink Floyd's "On The Run", reshaped and remodeled from the original release on the Resident's label.

4 Emerald City           6:04   123 BPM
"Emerald City Sequence", Quincy Jones etc, 1978

Psychedelic symphonic soundtrack disco at its finest. One part of a 3 color sequence, Gay Marvine has highlighted an often forgotten Quincy Jones classic from the original soundtrack to the motion picture of the Broadway musical The Wiz, and transformed it into a psychedelic disco masterpiece.

I don’t know what I love more about “Would you Believe in Me” - the bit where Jon goes “uba-duba-duba-duba-duba”, or the bit where he goes “dee-burn-em d-d-de-de-de”. Not to mention the “durr-durr d-d-durr-durr-dum d-d-durr d-durr” bit.

I really can’t get enough of this trumped up little boombox bruiser which is why I had to extend it by 2:28 seconds. That way I could at least finish the dishes or make a cup of tea before telling Alexa to “play that brassy-ass beast again you sexy-as electro-fluzie please thank you”.

Stay safe. Love to you all x
