CC:DISCO In The Lab LDN
CC:DISCO In The Lab LDN is the audio equivalent of finding a perfect vintage shirt in a chaotic thrift store—it's all about the joy of the dig. We're here for the left turns, the forgotten gems, and the sheer pleasure of a groove that doesn't take itself too seriously. The vibe is warm, inclusive, and slightly hazy, perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon or the early hours of a friendly party. Don't be fooled by the 'techno' label; this is a masterfully curated disco and deep house journey with a relaxed average BPM of 115.6. The key center often sits in 5A, providing a smooth, soulful backbone for the eclectic selections.
Energy is beautifully balanced between low-end warmth and mid-range melodic content, creating a feel-good, physical swing. Mixing is intuitive and musical, often letting tracks play out to showcase their full character, with blends that feel more like conversations than transitions. The tracklist is a treasure trove. Opening with Bruce Cockburn's folksy "Waterwalker Theme" is a statement of intent—this won't be a generic club set. The Mark Kamins remix of Isabelle Antena's "Laying On The Sofa" is a slice of perfect, balearic-infused house history.
White Knight Instrumental's "Arabian Gold" offers twelve minutes of hypnotic, dubby bliss, while Purple Disco Machine's extended remix of Shakedown's "At Night" is a guaranteed floor-filler. The inclusion of Reboot's "Bodycheck" adds a tougher, percussive edge, and Capricorn's "20 Hz" is a classic acid line repurposed for a modern, heads-down moment. The set starts on the organic, folksy strains of "Bruce Cockburn - Waterwalker Theme", builds to a peak of disco abandon with "Shakedown - At Night (Purple Disco Machine Remix)", and winds down with the poignant, vocal-led house of Fragile's "We've Got Tonight, Boy".
