Celebrating the 10th TSTD compilation. Who would have thought„. The Berlin curator releases a killer 4th edition of the original compilation art form, "Too Slow to Disco", featuring forgotten and overseen gems from the mid 70s to the early 80s from a global world of smooth, brilliant lost and overproduced tracks from Finland via London and L.A. to Trinidad and beyond. The great 'un-vanisher' of lost lazy classics, DJ Supermarkt once again unearthed some incredible music that labels, publishers (in many cases also those, who actually own the rights to those tracks„) and streaming services have often long overlooked. You're welcome, world! These sixteen tracks of newly ˜un-vanished™ hit-making genius find us once more in that delightfully Westcoast state of mind, the musical breeze in our hair as we corner on the headland, the top most definitely down. Too Slow to Disco 4 is also a love letter to the genre-smashing bravery of that era, Yacht Pop rubbing shoulders with Christian Gospel, groovy Folk, Country-Soul and Blue-Eyed Soul. As ever, DJ Supermarkts genius is to uncover the musical through line that joins these missing-in-action names and the tunes that could have been their big moment. The result is a kind of joyous alternative history of the era, where a very different pantheon of pop gods became the names we love. As usual these tunes feature ludicrous levels of musical competence, boasting tight grooves in tighter polyester, and yet there™s (almost) not a single household name in sight. DJ Supermarkt is once again looking for the special šgeniuses› in the background and behind the sound, musicians and a-list composers, whose names are not well known, but who wrote million selling tracks for other acts in the spotlight: Like Kenny Nolan, who a.o. wrote šLady Marmalade›, The Dukes, who penned Sheena Easton™s šModern Girl›, Air Supply™s šEvery Woman In The World› and Chaka Khan™s šFate›, famously sampled by Stardust for their French House Club-Hit šMusic Sounds Better With You›. Four of these 16 tracks are taken from super rare private press vinyls, unearthed by Dj Supermarkt over several years by chasing down the original composers, musicians or producers, and now officially rereleased for the very first time.
