COMING MAY 2010: premium 2CD and 4 sets of 2LP

BBE Records proudly presents its 5th and arguably most exciting compilation with the French dj and ambassador of disco, Dimitri from Paris : "Get Down With The Philly Sound".

This compilation focuses on Dimitris essential disco era tracks - made in Philadelphia, that feature the core of the rhythm section that created and defined the sound of the genre. For this compilation Dimitri has exclusively reworked 5 tracks from the original multitrack tapes of Gamble and Huff with a further 4 being edited from the original 2 track stereo masters.

Dimitri's selection on CD1 traces the evolution of the 70s disco groove from the first ever disco hit record, to the rejuvenation of the Jackson 5s career. Interspersed with obscurities such as Charles Mann to the magnificent Teddy Pendergrass, Philly Internationals answer to Marvin Gaye. CD2 of the compilation pays homage to the original creators and innovators of the remix and extended edits with reworkings exclusively by Dimitri from Paris.

This tribute to the creators of disco is presented on a special double cd as well as 4 sets of double vinyl exclusively featuring Dimitris remixes and edits.

This is a treasure. Great info from the people who were there and outstanding photographs! I can only imagine if The Dells deal did go through with P.I.R. It's clear to picture them doing The Love I Lost.

Thanks so much for sharing this!
