Who else is keen for a late night disco sesh? Any ideas for good platforms where they don't mute...?

Hamilton Bohannon, Disco and Motown Legend, Dies at 78 27/04/2020

Sad news yesterday :(

I remember early in my disco endeavours, stumbling across Hamilton Bohannon and thinking, "this is some mind-blowing s**t" and rushing to show my sister and Kyle Palmer when they came over one night.

His tunes never fail to make me smile and will always remember playing 'Dance Dance Dance All Night' at Piu Disco and seeing people's reactions to that beastly track.

Lets have a cheeky boogie today in memory :)

Hamilton Bohannon, Disco and Motown Legend, Dies at 78 Hamilton Bohannon, one of the great musicians of the disco era, died on Friday. He was 78. The Newnan Times-Herald, a local newspaper in Newnan, Ga., where Bohannon was born, reported the news on Saturday after speaking with several members of his family. Bohannon played the drums for Stevie Wonder....

The D Word for OWOS003 12/09/2019

Was an absolute delight recording a mix for Other Worlds Other Sounds.

Delving more into the quirky and weird disco that i don't usually play out, and averaging below 120bpm (this was definitely a challenge), this mix highlights the broad spectrum of what we call disco.

Think cosmic. Worldly. Mysterious vocals.

Enjoy xx

The D Word

The D Word’s take on disco can only be described as deep, dirty and energetic.

Born from a love of 90s house music and then delving backwards, The D Word now resides in the disco underground of the late 70s and early 80s, with a focus on raw, high-energy grooves designed purely for body movement.

When he isn’t digging for more music, The D Word plays host to various parties around town including Bendy Rainbow and Piu Disco. All parties are designed for maximum dance floor participation where DJs are encouraged to explore the weird and wonderful in their collections and dancers are encouraged to let loose and be themselves.

Taking cues from dance music’s heyday and applying a classically q***r twist, The D Word’s sole mission is to get everyone moving as one.
