joey negro und sean p sind nicht nur leidenschaftliche plattensammler, sondern auch ein geschmackssicheres kompilations-duo. als solches haben die beiden engländer in den letzten jahren die legendären sampler-reihen “disco (not disco)”, “destination boogie” und “the soul of disco” auf die beine gestellt. letztere erlebt mit der doppel-lp “the soul of disco vol. 1” einen zweiten frühling. die zusammenstellung, die als gatefold-platte auf den markt kommt, enthält zehn ausgesuchte stücke der ersten “the soul of disco”-fassung von 2005, die damals als 2cd mit insgesamt 23 tracks erschien, und die joey negro und sean p ganz besonders am herzen lagen. selbstredend handelt es sich dabei um songs extrem seltener und damit extrem kostspieliger 12”es, die allein bei ausgewiesenen disco-connaisseuren im plattenschrank zu finden sind. die kollektion spannt mit sechs original-raritäten und vier dj-freundlichen edits von joey negro und sean p einen bogen über die jahre 1976 bis 82.

experienced crate diggers are no doubt familiar with new birth, the 17-piece funk ensemble sampled on classic hip-hop records by wu-tang clan, de la soul, junior m.a.f.i.a., black sheep, lil wayne, ice cube, and many more. the genesis of new birth can be traced back to the nite-liters, a louisville-based instrumental outfit. founded in 1963 by motown songwriter/producer harvey fuqua and saxophonist tony churchill, the nite-liters released a handful of albums in the early 70s, scoring a few minor hits and perfecting the sound that would power new birth to further success as the decade progressed. while much of the the nite liters’ early material has been overlooked, their self-titled debut album is worth revisiting. originally released on rca records in 1970, the nite liters is a raw, soulful masterpiece that has been sampled by kmd, ghostface killah and others.
