Disco Potential: A NuDisco and Dance Music Tumblr.

After a nice run in a great venue, Disco Potential is letting someone else have that much-desired Friday night slot at River Gods in Cambridge, MA. Thank you to Dustin, Jackie, Bradford and all the rest of the staff for their kindness and warmth.

Daft Punk unbox the first copy of Random Access Memories in their laboratory.

You can support Disco Potential by purchasing your copy of the new album through IsTheNewDaftPunkOutYet.com.

Mixed slightly crudely and with little regard for anything other than beatmatching and “hey these would sound okay together,” it’s the new Five Tracks mix! This one features some very new house records, that Mirror People remix of Jesse Oliver we chatted up a couple of days ago and the stellar reworking of the lead-off single on Justin Timberlake’s new album as handled by Vito Aeroplane. It’s fast, it’s fun and it’s free to download when you right-click here!

It’s Only You (Sandy Rivera’s Original Mix) - Kings of Tomorrow featuring April

We’re proud of this one, even if it’s a bit sloppy in places and it inverts the usual accepted formula for a mix by starting off hands-in-the-air before going a bit techy-disco and finally ending up at a remix of The XX. Right click here to download if you’d like a better listening experience.

This Time - Sharam Jey
Cold Nights (SoundSAM remix) - Chordashian
Only You Can Show Me - Goldroom featuring Mereki Beach
Nerves - Metro Area
Bachelet - Sonda
Sunset (Kim Ann Foxman Remix) - The XX

In two weeks, Kevin will be DJing at River Gods for a special Good Friday session and we’re sure that there will be one of the usual flyers for that when the time comes.

It’s been too long since we last did one of these, and for that, we apologize. We were in a bit of a funk and then we realized that a bright summery mix would help everyone, so that is what this is. This was done spur-of-the-moment so it’s not as polished as many of these mixes, but we like the feel of it quite a bit. Please enjoy and, of course, share. Right-click here to download.

Cash, Diamond Rings, Swimming Pools (Lou Teti Remix) - D E N A
Tom’s Diner (The Coconut Wireless Mix) - Wordlife featuring Anna Lunoe
Sunset (Aeroplane Remix) - Compuphonic featuring Marques Toliver
Machines - Mirror People
All Night Long (Gui Pimentel Rework) - Lionel Ritchie
You Can Call Me Al (Flight Facilities Edit) - Paul Simon

If you missed it, Kevin’s returning to River Gods this Friday and will be playing a special Good Friday session as well. Here’s the flyer for the first part of that sentence:

Kevin will be playing records at River Gods this Friday, March 8th. The last session was canceled by Nemo, but we’ve been assured that the correct incantations have been made and the sacrifices are lined up for this session and our bonus session on Good Friday.

A return to our incorrect naming schema, or you can view this as a five track mix that offers you a bonus track for free! Either way, this package features six songs, some of which you know in some form or another, others that you don’t but you will. If we were trying to sell this to you at a department store, we’d inform you that it looks great on your iPod and that everyone is going to want to know where you go it. Right-click here to download if you want.

Down Fever - Only Children
16 Days - West.K
Still Don’t Love You (PONY Remix) - Jon Celius
Show Me Love (Nick Kech Nudisco Remix) - Robin S
Hum Hum (Original Mix) - Sharam Jey and LouLou Players
Start Again (Teenage Mutants Mix) - Grass Is Greener

And, of course, if you like this sort of music and live in the Boston area, Kevin will be playing records at River Gods in Cambridge tonight from 9 until 1. Here’s the flyer that he made for you to put on your Facebook wall or whatever:

The first Five Tracks remix of 2013, featuring a bit of pop, some swooshy progressive disco and some willful throwbacks to the days of old. We’re pretty happy with this and hope you are, too. (And for those of you counting, this is the third mix in which we’ve included Rick Astley’s most popular hit in one form or another. We’d apologize, but people keep making good records from it.)

As always, right click to download so you can use it on your preferred device.

Weak Knees (LT’s Redo) - Miss Bee
Disco Me (Kid Who Remix) - DJ Agent 86 and Drop Out Orchestra
Me For You - 78 Edits
After Party - Hotbox
Ricky Boy - Rotkraft

We’ll be playing records like this on Friday at our usual haunt, River Gods in Cambridge, MA. Here’s the flyer we’ve made. If you’re in the area and like good cocktails, great staff and decent music, it’s a fun time, and there’s no admission or any muss or fuss!

It's got disco potential.
