Zero-G releases Classic Disco
Welcome to the most creative decade of dance music 1977-1987, when disco went underground and became black dance music – the foundation for house and R’n’B. For the first time ever you’ll be able to get hold of the tracks as if someone gave you multi-track tapes from late 70′s and early 80′s disco underground [...]
PAINful tour for the Mbox
