Les Calvert Podcast

Some gems from the last couple of years I've been lovin' and also a bit more of a deep dubbier vibe into the sound of disco from the 70s and early 80s

My life narrated through music over the past 40 years is a journey worth sharing. From the highs to the lows, I'll recount it all. From the nightclubs where I raved, to the music I bought as a kid, the record shops I worked at, and the countless tales of DJing on dance floors around the world, every beat tells a part of my story.

Been a while since I've put a mix on here so soz about that but I hope you enjoy this selection of tunes I've picked that covers multiple vibes.

Larry Levan was an American DJ best known for his decade-long residency at the New York City night club Paradise Garage, which has been described as the prototype of the modern dance club. He developed a cult following who referred to his sets as "Saturday Mass". Influential post-disco DJ François Kevorkian credits Levan with introducing the dub aesthetic into dance music. Along with Kevorkian, Levan experimented with drum machines and synthesizers in his productions and live sets, ushering in an electronic, post-disco sound that presaged the ascendence of house music.
