Back in 2007 or 2008, Dave Tat gave me a copy of this reissue for my birthday & lately I've been considering posting it. I'm glad I waited, because Greg Wilson just posted a fresh wav file! Equip consisted of Wilson, Magazine's Martin Jackson & A Certain Ratio's Andy Connell. Get the scoop from the 12"s liner notes below: In 1984 Street Sounds released the experimental 'UK Electro' album as part of their now legendary Electro series. All but one of the tracks on this 'compilation' were written and produced by the same nucleus of [...]
There are so many quality mixes from back in the day doing the rounds. It clear that the latest burst in the internet with Soundcloud and Mixcloud is giving pople the ability to get mixes they had in the archives onto the net and ready for our listening pleasure. This time we have one straight from the UK's own DJ Don Greg Wilson . It's a mix he recorded in 1982 as a best of for Piccadilly Radio in Manchester. Its all about the floor fillers from places like the Wigan Pier and [...]
First off, Happy New Year folks. As you may have noticed, if you've been visiting the site over the holidays, the number of posts were low for obvious reasons. It's the holidays and I was... Read the rest on Speakerboxxx.com
In a world where remixes and otherwise altered versions can often outshine their original tracks, it would be impossible to sift through all the amazing and pathetically generic "remixes," "edits," "rubs," "versions," and "mixes" out there in music land. I've decided instead to sift through our own archives from the past year and revisit some of my favorite cuts. I found that many of these artists have come and gone. or maybe I'm just not paying attention. If that's the case I plan make new friends in the New Year but hold on to the old and perhaps get [...]
It's boxing day and as everyone gets into the turkey sandwiches, we recommend grabbing this 2009 Essential Mix by Greg Wilson to help aid digestion. Surprisingly this was the first time Mr Tong had Greg on the show and it turned out to be well worth the wait. Wilson never fails and this massive selection of straight up funk and soul classics alongside Madchester anthems and straight up disco weapons hits the mark perfectly. Get your turkey groove on to this number. The Originals 'Down [...]
Contrary to his usual style, Greg Wilson actually shortened the instrumental a bit with this edit. In his own words: Previously limited vinyl only 2008 This edit (peppered with additional spins and samples) first appeared on Ruff Edits #2 as 'Scandinavian Safari' - the original, 'Safari' by Modern Sound Corporation, being a track I used to play at my hometown club, New Brighton's Golden Guinea, back in 1979. For my edit, I placed the emphasis on the superior instrumental 'Pt 2′ version, which found favour in UK Jazz-Funk circles at the time, its unique combination of [...]
We Have Band - Where Are Your People? By Stef Siepel The weekly froth! A weekly take on six tracks, most of which have recently popped up somewhere in the blogosphere. Bit of a mixed bag with a slight leaning towards house, disco, and remixes, but generally just anything that for some reason tickled the writer's fancy. Track of the week: 'Where are Your People?' by We Have Band We Have Band are really setting up their run for [...]
A classic rap track remixed to a funkedout, soulful vibe - yea I got this. Wish the raps got beefed up in quality, but then again it just wouldn't bring it back if it did. This shit is smooth all the way through.

Dance music royalty Greg Wilson is in the process of giving away edits on his soundcloud . I think he's adding a new one each week, usually in wav format. This edit, an extension of an early 70s disco hit, stood out to me. It originally appeared on GW's Ruff Edits #4 release. An interesting story lies with the original, too. Read more...

If you managed to escape the monster from last year that was Cocaine Blues (especially the Greg Wilson edit) then you did very well as you must be in the SAS and hidden deep in a cave somewhere. Anyways this unconventional 17 member strong Nu-Disco team that makes up Escort is releasing their very funky debut album on the 14th November. Definitely worth checking out!

The chunky-as-fuck keys of Rabbit Heart are crafted into an epic disco burn out which is sure to satisfy any dancefloor packed with 30 something mothers that don't get out much: "Oooh Ooooh, I know this one!!!

Taken from GW's Soundcloud page: "I also had some old jingles that fitted the theme I had in mind, which was a radio show, but without a presenter - instead the tracks would be segued together via edited sections, sound bites and samples. It's a real cut-up, very raw and experimental, referencing a wide spectrum of black music, mainly from the 70's and early 80's, taking in Soul, Funk, Disco, Jazz-Funk, Electro-Funk, Hip Hop and Boogie, but with a few curve ball edits thrown in for good measure. Listening back I can clearly hear that, in some [...]
