| | Amazon.com: Music: Discovery [Bonus Tracks] [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED] |
| | Discovery isn't one of the Electric Light Orchestra's strongest albums, but it is more than redeemed by the inclusion of what is perhaps their greatest single, the massive "Don't Bring Me Down." "Shine a Little Love" and "Confusion" are also classic ELO tracks in which synths, guitars, and orchestration merge into a finely crafted whole. | | | ELO hit their sales peak with the massive hit "Don't Bring Me Down," from the album "Discovery." And while the song is one of their best, the album it is drawn from is inconsistant at best. | | | The Discovery was a controversial album amongst the ELO faithful and some referred to this album as Disco-very. |

| | TrouserPress.com :: Quando Quango |
| | Latin and jazz-tinged funk shares the spotlight with reggaefied disco; orchestration is primarily busy percussion beneath bass, keyboards and horns, with mostly tuneless, chanted vocals of lyrics that aren't exactly poetry. | | | Playing and production are uniformly sharp, but Quando Quango was best served by 12-inch dance mixes; an entire LP's worth becomes redundant and forgettable. |

| | eBay - CD: Post (UPC: 075596174022) |
| | It is directly followed by "Enjoy," a lurching hypnotic nod with musical help from British trip-hop MC, Tricky; and the smooth, Bee Gees-like orchestration of "Isobel," a swooning accompaniment to strobe light bongo drums which announces that the listener is no longer at a rave, but at a disco. | | | With a full plate of sounds already on the table, Bjork adds her own unique flare to the presentation, proving she is not easily pigeonholed. | | | POST, Bjork's second release as a solo artist, mines the fertile soil of the eclectic musical terrain of post-modern pop. |

| | Sophisticated Funk, NILE RODGERS interview in down beat magazine September 1985 |
| | Disparaged by many as a disco band, Chic's trademark sound resulted from solid musical chops and sophistication: dance beats pumped beneath jazz-inflected chord voicings, string sections swooped or hovered above the intense syncopation set up by Edwards' bass and Rodgers' guitar, female harmonies cooed rhythmically jagged melodies. | | | From an early age, I could get melodies and songs out of any instrument I picked up." Rodgers' father, a percussionist with Sam Cooke and Harry Belafonte, and an uncle with a knack for orchestration, supplemented the boy's schooling. | | | But I just got some new software that they tell me will make it better." His current favorite new toy, however, is his Sony PCM-3324 digital recorder, which he enthuses about ecstatically. |

| | TIN CAN was a singer-songwriter bridge for the Bee Gees from their origins as mere pop stars to giants of the nascent disco revolution. | | | Other songs such as "Living In Chicago" and "My Life Has Been A Song" are wrapped in lush orchestration that avoids getting bogged down in any kind of mawkishness. | | | Additional personnel: Alan Kendall (guitar); Sneaky Pete Kleinow (steel guitar); Rik Grech (violin, bass); Jerome Richardson (flute); Tommy Morgan (harmonica); Jane Getz (piano); Jim Keltner (drums). |

| | The song was one of the first by The Jacksons to feature a lot of orchestration, punctuated by dramatic strings and a blood-curdling scream from sister La Toya at the songs's beginning (perhaps she had a vision of the rest of her career?). | | | Their last album, 1978's "Destiny" finally affirmed the brothers as a self-contained singing and production unit, selling over a million copies and spawning a huge hit with the disco drenched "Shake Your Body (Down To The Ground)". | | | The album's singularly best track is the moody "Time Waits For No One". |

| | Timba - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Though as in salsa the roots of timba go back to the son montuno, it has incorporated several different styles and genres, including classical music, nueva trova, latin jazz, disco, funk and hip hop. | | | Los Van Van developed what came to be known as the ‘songo’ genre, making countless innovations to traditional son, both in style and orchestration. | | | Irakere is known largely as a Latin Jazz band outside Cuba, yet much of their music can be considered to be popular dance music. |
