Ran across this re-dub today, recovering from the weekend, watching the rain outside, and thinking about how to step up my pillow game.. Good Sunday listening.

a.k.a. A-Trak and Armand Van Helden. Ya’ll know Barbra Streisand already, ya’ll know about aNYway, you guys already know what these two dudes are all about. The good vibes.
So without further ado, a long awaited track has finally surfaced. If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll recognize this track from the duo’s HUGE set at this year’s EDC. All that’s out there now is a rip from a recent Louis La Roche set and is a personal edit of his, but it’s enough to bring back the memories.

We look forward to an official release, nothing like a disco dancefloor heater to combat the upcoming winter.
Hey friends, it’s Party Dad again with another helping of disco history for you, and what a generous helping I have this week! Let’s talk for a minute about the original celebrity DJ, and one of my biggest personal influences, Tom Savarese.
Tom Savarese got his start DJing in 1973 at the ripe old age of 29 and held residencies at a number of legendary New York discotheques throughout the 70s, including the Hollywood, the Ice Palace, 12 West and the Sandpiper on Fire Island.
Here’s a five-hour mix recorded by the man himself straight to reel-to-reel for a New Year’s Eve party in 1978. Back then, it was a common practice for club owners and some DJs to record an evening’s set and sell it the next day. These were the very first DJ mixtapes!
(Note: These are 320kbps mp3s, so the files are huge, but it’s totally worth it for the sound quality. Enjoy!)
