Thandii x Regalado – Coco Okayo [Sama Sama Records]
UK duo Thandii has collaborated with Philippine drummer Jun Regalado on the ethereal Dream Disco track “Coco Okayo”. Jess Berry’s vocals are light as air, and when combined with Regalado’s legendary drum style, magic is born. The LP will be released on September 11, 2026, and you can expect more of the duo’s Manila sound.
LEFTI – Muchacho [The Disco Express]
Just when you think summer is over, LEFTI (Alexandro Suarez) hits us with the Latin-infused scorcher “Muchacho”! This track is pure dancefloor fire, and I dare you to stay seated while this track is playing. LEFTI has been exploring the Tech House world of late, and this song on The Disco Express is a welcome return to Disco House!
Golden Gate & Jason Herd – Carry On feat. Jessie Wagner (Jason Herd’s Most Obvious Dub) [Bohemian Disco]
Bohemian Disco label boss Jason Herd has partnered with Golden Gate on a cover of the Martha Wash classic, “Carry On”, featuring the classically soulful vocals of New York’s Jessie Wagner. Herd’s Dub puts the track squarely in the club, late-night specifically! The vocals are cut up and swirled around, much like you should be while dancing to this Disco gem!
Goshfather & Motion Twin – Bury Me On The Dancefloor [Black Jack Records]
If you like straightforward Disco House, then Goshfather and Motion Twin‘s “Bury Me On The Dancefloor” is going to be the jam of the summer for you! There is no denying the Disco strings that lift the track and make it perfect for prime time at the club.
FRASER & DJ Burgerhead – Guaranteed [DistroKid]
FRASER and DJ Burgerhead‘s “Guaranteed” is a bona fide Disco House floor-filler! With plenty of chops and drops, this track is a great example of the sum of its parts, where the samples don’t overwhelm the funk, and vocals are only sprinkled in where needed. This is a guaranteed good time on the dancefloor!
Birdee & Rikky Disco – Gimme All You Got [The Basement Discos]
The making of “Gimme All You Got” was a truly international affair! Rikky Disco‘s Fanacy traveled to Los Angeles to begin the writing process with DJ/Producer Birdee. She took what they had written back to Sweden to her partner Chris; they fleshed out the rest of the track, and Disco magic was born! Sweet, funky, and all-around danceable.
Michael Gray & Barbara Tucker – I Get Lifted (Extended Mix) [Fool’s Paradise]
If the Disco is your church, then Michael Gray and Barbara Tucker‘s “I Get Lifted” is going to get those hands up in the air. It takes almost 4 minutes to hear Tucker’s gifted vocals, and you should have worked up quite a sweat by then! This track will lift you right off the dance floor!
Darling Nikki – Elvis (The REFLEX Revision Instrumental) [Darling Nikki]
The Reflex is well known for his revisions of classic songs, so it’s always fun to hear his take on a new track. In this case, he’s taken on Darling Nikki‘s “Elvis”. This instrumental version adds a little more Disco flair to the original mix, giving the horns a place to really shine.
Arht, witchoneyouwant, Ryn Eckert – Love Like This (MGR Mike’s Disco Bump) [Sparkle Motion Records]
Arht, witchoneyouwant, Ryn Eckert’s “Love Like This” (MGR Mike’s Disco Bump) is a cover, but boy does MGR Mike‘s Disco Bump sound fresh! Ryn Eckert‘s vocal is pure and lovely, flowing freely over the sweet disco instrumentation. You are definitely going to want to play this at your next party!
Kraak & Smaak and Paco Versailles – When the Magic Comes [Boogie Angst]
“When The Magic Comes” is a dream collaboration between two of my favorite artists, Paco Versailles and Kraak & Smaak. This track has a fuzzy, funky vibe, and feels a little like you are listening to it in a dream state. The silky smooth vocals blend seamlessly with the funky bass and jammy guitars. I do believe the magic has firmly landed here!
Flamingo Pier – No Excuses [Flamingo Pier Records]
Let’s listen to a little Nu-Disco with Flamingo Pier‘s “No Excuses” from their forthcoming LP Woven Together. If you aren’t familiar with this New Zealand-born band, you really are missing out! The trio’s music is always danceable and fun, bringing great energy with every song. “No Excuses” is easy, breezy, and will get you moving!
Moods & Gavin Turek – Feel Something [Boogie Angst]
If you are looking for a song to get you in the mood, Moods and Gavin Turek have the right recipe on their track “Feel Something”. This track is sexy and moody, with a deep groove that will ensure that you get very close to someone, even if it is just on the dancefloor.
Andy Bach – Talk To Me [Spa In Disco]
Andy Bach may be one of the busiest Disco music producers in the industry right now. Not only that, but the quality of his tracks is incredibly strong every time! “Talk To Me” is another example of a song that sneaks up on you in an unexpected way, with its cool synths and glitchy rhythms. This isn’t a standard Disco track, and that is what makes it work.
Sammy Deuce – Mercy [Spa In Disco]
Sammy Deuce is a staple producer in the Disco scene, and he’s not holding back on “Mercy” on his latest track for Spa In Disco! This track is built around a funky groove peppered with bright horns and female vocals begging for mercy from a lover. This song will have you moving, grooving, and asking for more! Mercy me!
Manuel Costela – Healing My Soul [Spa Club]
What starts as a simple drum pattern turns into a remarkably funky little track called “Healing My Soul”. Because I truly believe music can heal, Manuel Costela‘s jam has the right groove to seep into your soul and make everything feel alright.
