ZERNELL GILLIE [Grimy! Edits -LA/Chicago] @ Circuit 12 Contemporary

  DISCO'S REVENGE is taking the party [Saturday Nov. 16th] to Dallas' Design District for our latest soiree in order to bring the metroplex a different "vibe" to the music and culture.

We are hosting this edition at CIRCUIT 12 CONTEMPORARY , which is one of the newest and most innovative hubs for modern art in the DFW metroplex.  

DISCO'S REVENGE is proud to bring to Dallas, for the very first time, ZERNELL GILLIE, who is fast becoming the poster child for those who love disco re-edits. The Chicago bred, LA resident, cut his teeth on the fertile dance floors of Chicago's nascent House Music scene  as a protege of the legendary Music Box resident, Ron Hardy, who was introduced to Zernell by the equally legendary Gene Hunt.   

  His boutique label, GRIMY! EDITS is one of the world's top re-edit labels with each release selling out at record stores worldwide.  Each release captures the essence and vibe of the early House scene, yet updates the soundtrack to fit 21st century tastes.  Retro without feeling outdated is how you could describe the overall vibe of the label.

    

After a successful European tour that included stops in the U.K., Germany, France, Sweden and the Netherlands, Zernell is fast becoming one of the most sought after dj's on the global circuit.  In Los Angeles , he hosts and guests at some of the hottest events on the West Coast.

If that's not enough, we also have a local Dallas talent who in the span of a year or two, has caught the attention of the global underground House Music community with his unique take on classic Chicago House and Detroit Techno sounds.  GAVIN GUTHRIE under his production alias, TX CONNECT, has put the international dance music community on notice with his releases on Brooklyn record label, L.I.E.S.(Long Island Electrical Systems) and Glasgow based label, Dixon Avenue Basement Jams. 

Rounding out the festivities is , the enigma himself, international man of mystery, DISCO'S REVENGE resident dj, MR. DAISHIKI JONES.

Believe me, this is going to be a good one..

As a matter of fact, Zubar is where our little party got its start NYE almost two years ago...(video)...wow...its been that long...seems like only yesterday.

Last Halloween was a blast, with a varied assortment of ghouls, goblins, zombies, sexy nurses & slutty nuns grooving and grinding away to the thumping beat....ahhhh...the memories...

So this year we've decided to up the ante...we are giving away $100 cold hard cash(Zubar backroom only) to the person with the craziest/sexiest/skimpiest/humorous/creative costume....you pick the costume...and we'll pick the winner...no specific categories...just whatever catches our eye at the moment...

and to get the party off to a swinging start...vodka drinks will be $1 until 11pm...

Providing the musical entertainment will be Disco's Revenge resident jocks...Israel Marcano and Mr. Daishiki Jones spinning the hottest underground house, disco, tech-house from around the world.

THE HOUSE OF VIRGO: A Musical Celebration for the Virgo's

Okay friends and family, we are coming back to the Absinthe Lounge for more in the month of September(Friday the 9th) with a special edition of DISCO'S REVENGE. We will be celebrating the astrological sign of Virgo with our patented "disco" blend of deep house, tech house, nu disco, classic disco and other audiotastic delights for your dancing feet.

Last month's edition was a blast and this one will be even more insane(we all know how Virgos love a good party).

This is gonna be a good one with resident dj's Israel Marcano and Mr. Daishiki Jones(throwing down a very special set for fellow Virgos) manning the decks...so this night has debauchery written all over it.

We've been busy spreading the DISCO'S REVENGE seed across the nation and around the globe(check out the recent interviews with the Snuff Crew from Germany, Lady D from Chicago and Duane Harriott from NYC). To our knowledge, there isn't any other event/project/blog in the Dallas metroplex that showcases the culture & music quite like we do.

And what EXACTLY is that we do you ask yourself???? Well for starters there isn't any other event in North Texas that features underground music ie. deep house, techno, nu disco, classic disco, tech house, classic house with one eye focused on the rich history of the culture while the other eye is creating new "classics" by featuring the hottest music from around the globe. Hence the tagline:

"Respecting the influences of the past that were the template for the present which in turn influences the future"

Here is a recent podcast from DJ Israel Marcano to tide you over until the 9th...see u there.
