Gotta move to the groove.
I wonder why.
I wonder why.
I wonder why I wonder.

Disco boogie madness from disco revivalist Escort, a 17 member band from Brooklyn, NY. Cocaine Blues is a loosely based on Dillinger’s 1976 “Cocaine in My Brain” and feels like a forgotten classic. Very organic, very cheerful and very retro.
Midnight Magic might as well be the best new act of 2010. The group has three past members of Brooklyn’s Hercules & Love Affair: Andrew Raposo, Morgan Wiley and Carter Yasutake. Same Way I Feel is a mellow disco jam with yearning vocals. Drop me a line is more upbeat with an electric feel and funkier bass-line. Both songs are very similar to the band’s first single “Beam me up” (which was also featured on Résistance). Enjoy the straightforward disco.

Feel the love
After being sick for days and couch surfing all over Miami, Resistance is back. All of today’s songs are very special place for me. Beam Me Up is pure disco at its finest. Beam Me Up’s emphatic beauty feels, through acoustic and clear sounds, as if it was a song you once knew and loved but can’t recollect anything about it except the impression it once had on you. Jacques Renault remix is less acoustic and more up-beat (and has a cool jazzy solo at the end).
Joakim’s interpretation of Feel the love is a heavenly vocal infused cowbell jam with deep old school house influences. Feel the auditory love, it’s good to be back.
