Dimitri From Paris A Night At The Playboy Mansion (2000)



I think this is widely regarded as somewhat of a classic. This was first brought to my attention by the Stetsasonic Remix of All That Jazz. Possibly one of the best remix hip hop tunes I have heard. I can't think of another rap tune that has had a house remix like this that worked so well. Other highlights for me are The Sunburst Band and Ashford and Simpson. This was from the time when disco house was big and this album surely is one of the best from this time.

Dimitri From Paris Cocktail Disco (2007)



This just has the 1970's written all over it! Sleazy funky orchestral disco grooves is the best way I can describe it. It's wicked. Real instruments! Flutes, horns, strings, trumpets-this is real sh*t! If you're one of those people who says things like-'that sounds like porn music from the 70's' then maybe you're listening to it the wrong way..or maybe not..you could be right..4/4 beats aplenty, loads of interesting percussion sounds, funky guitars...this has EVERYTHING. An absolute must for anyone into 70's music.
