To quote one of the songs in this week’s Disco Mix Monday : “It ain’t that hard to dance. It’s a lot easier than taking off your pants”. ” Who am I to argue?
I’ve put together a truly eclectic Hi-NRG selection from 1979, starting with my all-time favorite disco record: “Another Cha-Cha” by Santa Esmeralda. A full Latin orchestra, complete with a brass and percussion section, riding on an irresistible Hi-NRG beat—try to sit still for that one, I dare you!
The rest of the mix takes a deep dive into the sound that stood at the crossroads of classic disco and the emerging early ‘80s Hi-NRG dance movement. Enjoy!
