| | Disco - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Disco is a genre of music that originated in discothèques. | | | Disco music diverged from the rock of the 1960s, elevating music from the raw sound of 4-piece garage bands to refined music composed by producers who contracted local symphony and philharmonic orchestras and session musicians. | | | In 1975, the pop star Dalida was the first to make disco music in France with her song "J'attendrai" which was a big hit there as well as in Canada and Japan in 1976. |

| | Disco - Wikiquote |
| | For less creative disco DJs, however, the ideal was to slip-cute smoothly from the end of one record into the beginning of the next. | | | Disco was also created by DJs in its initial phase, though these tended to be club jocks rather than mobile party jocks -- records by Barry White, Eddie Kendricks and others became dancefloor hits in New York clubs like Tamberlane and Sanctuary and were crossed over onto radio by Frankie Crocker at station WBLS. | | | They also created a context for breaks rather than foregrounding them, and the disco records which emerged out of the influence of this type of mixing tended to feature long introductions, anthemic choruses and extended vamp sections, all creating a tension which was released by the break. |

| | A history of disco music |
| | Due to the rise of the discotheque and the technical innovation of the twelve inch recording, a new genre of music that was explicitly made with the dancefloor in mind, was born. | | | Disco albums frequently didn't have many tracks — they had a handful of long songs that kept the beat going. | | | Disco was named after discotheques, clubs that played nothing but music for dancing. |

| | Disco is on of the father of modern dance music, the place where it all started. | | | Two other very important things that came out of Disco were the remix (re-edits of an existing song, initially done on a reel to reel tape machine and done to make the song longer and change the arrangement of the music) and also very importantly the 12" vinyl single. | | | Some remixers and DJ's that were important in the development of Disco are David Mancuso, Tom Moulton, Nicky Siano, Larry Levan, Walter Gibbons, and Frankie Knuckles among many others. |

| | Shapiro ties in two disparate strains of music that together became the prototype of the disco sound: Motown and Northern Soul, which originated in the hardscrabble coal counties of Northern England (and influenced the Beatles). | | | Disco may have died, but the sound lived on. | | | At the same time, Tom Moulton accidentally invented the EP (extended-play record), which allowed DJs to play a song continuously for longer than the few minutes on a 45. |

| | Shapiro loves disco, both as a genre of music and as a pop-culture movement, but he's bracingly unsentimental about its origins: "Despite its veneer of elegance and sophistication, disco was born, maggot-like, from the rotten remains of the Big Apple." | | | We define our identities by the kind of music we respond to, or, more specifically, by the kind of music we to respond to: We've all been caught humming along to some bad song on the radio, even though we claim to know better. | | | There are few forms of popular music so universally despised, or so misunderstood, as disco. |

| | Disco Fever By Andy Battaglia |
| | His disco trafficked alongside the classics of the genre, but it traded more in what amounted to disco's shadow economy, where ideas about music commanded higher premiums and dividends trickled underground. | | | They also shine light on a disco milieu now regarded as a critical flashpoint in music history. | | | The version on the album, mixed by New York disco don Larry Levan, starts at what sounds like half-speed until keyboards tug the break-beat to attention. |

| | Pet Shop Boys : Disco 3 - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
| | The third in an infrequent series of albums made up of remixes and new creations aimed at the dancefloor, Disco 3 isn't geared toward casual listeners or casual Pet Shop Boys fans for that matter; these songs target nightclubs and perhaps listeners who crave high-tech musical sheen for speeding down European motorways. | | | Par for the course on Disco 3 are punchy bass beats, snippets of Neil Tennant's vocals, standard but classy House effects, and massive dollops of New Order inspiration. | | | For dance club gurus, band completists, and anyone who wonders what the Pet Shop Boys would sound like if they were New Order fanatics, Disco 3 is essential; others might do best to stick with Release. |
