Boogie Playlist 22nd January 2012

It's another day, another weekend, another Sunday. I look forward to today's show, particularly because I want to talk about the History Of Disco. How it started? Who started it? And how its penultimate melodramatic demise came about.

Disco is considered the father of several dance music genres that have emerged since the 1970s, such as house, Latin freestyle, Hi-NRG, nu-disco, Italo disco, and Eurodisco. So I thought it would great to take a step back and reflect. This is today's playlist. There's also an 80s slow groove segment in the second half of the program where DJ Cue will mix the tracks in the studio.
