An extract from an almost extinct genre, fleeting like bubbles in champagne, and just as tickling, whether it's the palate in mouth or your eardrums. 
Once rock and roll turned into yéyé, disco into synth, hip-hop into R&B, Shibuya-kei into J-pop, and any music lover finds it hard to get used to these metamorphoses. 

But club pop, the essence of 20th-century pop culture, managed to absorb all genres and directions, coupling easy listening with drum and bass, hard rock with big beat, ragtime with electro. 

Press 'Play' and embark on a journey through the ghost offices of 2000s record companies: Bungalow, Matador, Diggler, Emperor Norton, press those dusty doorbells! 

But this isn't a journey back; it's forward, because the flag of irony and postmodernism is waving again, to the assertive chords of fresh Confidence Man and Dutch Girl (both oddly from Australia). Their flags are in the same wind as the once-cult Arling & Cameron, Ursula 1000, and Le Hammond Inferno. 

Forget the religion of techno, garish house, and cloying disco - it's time to relax those nasolabial folds, swap tight leather for soft athletic shoes, and let serotonin reign, the musculoskeletal system be free!

This mix was recorded in 2018 for Koktebel Jazz festival, originally based in Crimea, Ukraine. 
Let's hope it will go back to the seaside stage again!
