COLLEEN 'COSMO' MURPHY deep disco set in The Lab LDN
Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy in The Lab LDN for a deep disco set is like being handed the keys to the kingdom of groove—we're here for the obscure edits, forgotten gems, and that moment when a 1978 bassline makes perfect sense today. The vibe is all warm amber lighting, a swaying crowd, and the faint scent of vinyl dust, a lesson in timelessness where every track feels like a discovery. Averaging 124 BPM with a range from 118 to 162, this set is a dynamic flow anchored in harmonic journeys through keys like 12A, 7A, and 8B, and an energy balance of 45% low, 43% mid, and 11% high ensures richness in melody and rhythm without harshness.
Murphy's mixing is smooth and musical, often letting tracks play out fully to showcase their arrangements, with BPM shifts handled via key matches that glide from one era to the next. The low-end is warm and round, supporting lush strings and funky guitars, while the mid-range carries the soulful vocals and percussive intricacies. Crate highlights include the funky opener 'Mass Production - Welcome to Our World (Joey Negro Funk In the Music Mix)', the deep cut 'The Salsoul Orchestra - 212 N.
12th' for connoisseurs, and 'Cerrone - Got To Have Loving' as disco perfection. The edit 'Cerrone & Purple Disco Machine - Summer Lovin'' bridges generations, while 'Patrick Cowley - Get a Little (Alan Dixon Love Attack Mix)' injects hi-NRG energy, and 'Dinosaur L - #5 Go Bang! (Francois K Mix)' proves disco's experimental edge. The journey starts with the welcoming funk of 'Mass Production', peaks with the pulse of 'Cerrone', and closes on the groove of 'Seven Moon - Back2back', a seamless trip through disco's heart.
