DISCO GIANTS
VA - Disco Giants Vol. 01 - Vol. 10 [2007-2012] (20 x CD's)
The 'Disco Giants' series is part of the expanding catalogue of Vinyl-Masterpiece (VM), a Dutch company dedicated to issuing '...(your)...favourite disco funk music in the best possible way for a reasonable price...'. Since 2004 VM has released re-issues of previously deleted single artist discs (such as Oliver Cheatham's 'Saturday Night' and The Brooklyn, Bronx & Queens Band's 'Genie'), and a number of specifically themed compilations (such as 'Nightime Lovers'), all having been digitally remastered and supplemented with extra tracks and remixes, where available. Currentley there are 17 sets in this wonderful Series.
Chances are that the "Disco Giants" series masters its track list from vinyl, but you'd never know it. Each track is crystal clear, clean as a whistle, with not a hint of flaws that vinyl suffers from. IN other words, it's the closest you'll get to master quality and way beyond anything you'd be able to do burning your own vinyl to CD. Some of these tracks have appeared on CD from masters on other compilations, but for those 12" mixes you've never seen on CD before, this is worth getting until a release that uses real masters. My only question is why they opted for some non-12" versions, when each disc has about 20 minutes of space free.
Here today is a set containing the first 10 double CD sets released in the Disco Giants compilation series. There are 200 Disco tracks of the 80's. Not the commercial tracks which you will find on any ordinary Disco compilation but the rare and hard to find 80's Disco floor fillers (mainly the long versions). This is one incredible collection.

Hi Stephen,
DeleteWith the amount of music on this set then there will a lot of dancing ...
Cheers.
Didn't like disco. Strange how things change, when you get older...
ReplyDeleteHi StoneRose,
DeleteHow true our tastes are dictated by what we have heard before. Even if we didn't like it back then our minds are still attracted to the sound of the past. Such is the power of music. Enjoy!
Cheers.
Excellent series with quality tunes as are all the collections from Vinyl Masterpiece...many thanks!!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Chrisd.
