Poz Modern Disco

PozModernDisco is an exploration of the house and disco choons which have stuck with me and symbolise at a personal level the times and places during the magical days of the 1980s, summer radio and those KTEL disco mega mixed albums. These tracks have meaning for me because, they were favourites of my friends whom I lost to the epidemic and today the music we shared still holds a special place for me because I remain effected and affected by HIV and AIDS.

This week’s mixup comes to you from the family Kitchen table in Laidley Queensland, the set was mixed up while my mother had left the house – This was an epic trial and error mixing up under such conditions. Meanwhile, here’s what’s this DJ came up with, as always this is a first take, no stopping and fixing errors. This is a RAW set. I hope you like the mix and what I think it takes to sound different from the pack.
