DeeveDeeve Goes Disco June 7 2017This is not one of my usual sets. If you enjoy listening to any kind of House Music or its sub-genres today, it was likely influenced by the sound of Disco and Funk back in the 70s.

To maintain the original grooves, I avoided playing any kind of quantized new version (edits or remasterings), so expect original records.
