So, I'm playing at some corporate christmasparty tomorrow. I was told to play something akin to "funky disco stuff... like early Michael Jackson" which led me to think...What would you compare to early Michael Jackson? What do you consider similar in tempo, vibe, etc.?This might seem "basic", but I know my (at least mainstream) music, I swear! I can come up with a lot of things in the same genre, etc. but nothing quite like it, ya know? Nothing is too obvious here and I'm not out to educate the drunk ceo's and secretaries...Anyways, educate me, pleeeeeez?

    that Salsoul Christmas Disco album was the first thing that came to mind.

  • dont forget theese ones:

    Joneses - Summer Groove
    High Fidelity - Magic Carpet
    Larry MacGee - The Burg
    Hi Tension - British Hustle
    Tommy Stewart - Bump And Hustle Music
    BT Express - Does It Feel Good
    Love Committee - Just As Long As I Got You
    Sonny Jenkins - That Friday Pay
    Jimi Rutherford - Go For What You Know In The 80s
    Hudson People - Trip Trough
    Vaughan Mason - Bounce, Rock, Roll, Skate
    Jesse Gee - Thats Hot
    Shalamar - Take That To The Bank
    ++++++++

    maybe not early mj or something but theese songs are killin it

    and go for those Disco Spectrum and Disco Juice comps...


    and also try to find those "fav disco" and "fav boogie" posts from some weeks ago..


  • I'm so in love with the woman on those salsoul releases.

    Joneses - Summer Groove

    love your taste all the way, but this song does not fit in any way possible for a WINTER themed xmas party
    its about 20 degrees out

    haha! I was thinking the same thing, but people don't really seem to care.

    I played a danish song last weekend at a christmas party.
    The intro starts with, roughly translated, "now it's summer and we're chillin in the park"...

    I felt kinda silly; everybody else was too drunk to mind.
