DISKO DRUNKARDS MAKE YOUR BODY TALK
From the depths of the infamous Glimmers basement HQ rises an infectious groove, a rumbling clatter of analogue beats, synth stabs and bellowing bass. At the heart of this, six shady figurines. They call themselves the Disko Drunkards.
Four seasoned musicians sweating out red-hot funk licks, razor sharp breaks and gibberish scatting. Conducting this noisy barrage: Mo & Benoelie AKA The Glimmers; feeding their lifelong affection for schizoid disco and off kilter club music into these henchmen as if they were a battery of walking, talking samplers the duos mammoth record collection a source of sonic inspiration.
Disko Drunkards were conceived during late night jam sessions kick-started in 2005 with a steaming take on Jesus Loves The Acid, a long time Glimmers fave from Ecstasy Club. Their sleazy rendition of Olivia Newton Johns legwarmer classic Lets Get Physical (commissioned by Swedish clothing company WeSC), although not released commercially, became a staple on national radio playlists. More impromptu, on-the-spot recorded jams followed, the rough sketches later edited by The Glimmers into full bodied tracks.
The aftermath of these intense showdowns is a 12-track, self-titled, self-released, -composed, -performed and -produced album. Distributed not through your regular music outlets (on- nor offline) but exclusively AND freely by The Glimmers on their nightly missions and/or wherever Disko Drunkards take the stage and perform their intoxicating boogie. Imagine the minimal but explosive raw power of The White Stripes crossbred with the percussive, dub-infested urban jungle funk from Liquid Liquid and the psychedelic freakishness of Funkadelic or The Revolution. Disko Drunkards are a live testament to the legacy of Nile Rodgers Good Times and The Purple Ones Lets Go Crazy - high powered in delivery, loose on the limbs.

Wou al lang een live clip maken tijdens de laatste zonsopgang van de Gentse Feesten en ging er van uit dat de Diskodrunkards daar de ideale band voor is. We deden een instant facebook oproep om rond 7u met digitaal cameraatje te verzamelen onder de spiegelbol van café 'De Charlatan' op de Vlasmarkt. Het enige probleem was 1 muzikant die deze 'try out' niet zag zitten, waardoor het allemaal nog moeilijker realiseerbaar werd dan voorzien. Uiteindelijk was diezelfde muzikant niet weg te slaan van voor onze camera
