We haven't seen Greg drop a free download in a while... (probably cause he gave away all his back catalogue and has hopefully been busy making a bucket load of new ones...) However he just unveiled a new mash up of New Order and Rockers Revenge! Grab it below for free and if you are in London during the Queens Jubilee celebrations then come party with Greg at the Future Disco Boat Party along the Thames on the 1st June! Tickets on RA
I think in previous posts I have talked about my love for kitsch-y late 80s house. Stuff like this track have an almost utilitarian drive - making a song to dance to in the most crass way. The original song is Rocker's Revenge Walking On Sunshine which was a classic in its own post disco vibe. Fax Yourself - Sunshine
You'd be forgiven for thinking this is a post about The Bangles , but alas, it is not. Instead, this is a badass disco bootleg of two songs that are totally non-Egypt related. I'm not usually one for bootlegs but this is an absolute killer. Justus Kohncke's 2005 deep house classic ' Timecode ' meets Rockers Revenge's ' Walkin' on sunshine ' to create a summer feel-good anthem of epic proportions. The mysterious duo responsible for this hit go by the name of Cleo and Patra - formerly Tiger and Woods. They don't release often, but when [...]
This track is an amazing mix of Rockers Revenge by "Jellybean" Benitez and Arthur Baker on Streetwise Records in 1982.

With the heat and sun taking hold with no signs of letting up, the Ibiza season is just around the corner. Though I have yet to make the trek to the ultimate clubbers' getaway, I've been enjoying the sounds of the island for years. Well-documented by countless compilations, it's easy to get a clear picture of a standard Ibiza soundtrack. Here is a mix of tracks, dating back across several past summers, that evoke images of bright days by the poolside, surrounded by fabulous friends and tourists. Listeners of dance radio in San Francisco may be familiar with the first [...]
Funky Friday Has The Perfect Beats Back in '98 Timber Records (a Tommy Boy Records sublabel) put out four volumes of a compilation series called The Perfect Beats - New York Electro Hip Hop + Underground Dance Classics 1980 -1985. I picked up Vols. 1 & 2 back in the day, and they are now out of print and hard to find. Today's selections are taken from Volume 1. Rockers Revenge deliver a killer
