Disco Unusual Social Club's Podcast

Disco Unusual Social Club is a moving Dirty Disco Party that takes house and disco heads, on a musical adventure that's full of Studio 54 glam and old-school Chicago House Music energy. Everything from boogie to late krautrock has become fair game in these the hippest DJ sets in America, and forgotten disco detritus such as "Lovetown" are staples for DUSC & Dimitri from Paris. The most reliably tasteful dance party in the city, Disco Unusual Social Club, has been running for just over a year now. Indie kids pack the compact Danny’s Tavern in Bucktown floor to the distinctive bass lines of disco edits while DJ Lono Brazil blows whistles and passes around the tambourine. Things get a little nuts. Designed to conjure the era of the Loft and DJs like Nicky Siano and Larry Levan. Lono Brazil keeps the dance floor packed with dirty-disco programming, mutant dance oddities and original edits and exclusives. Chic! Il est très chic.
