Pink Project is most famous for it’s major mash-up hit “Disco Project” in 1982 which con­sisted of Pink Floyd’s Another Brick In The Wall and Sir­ius & Mam­magamma by Alan Par­sons Project. The song is not actu­ally a mix of three songs in it. Instead, every­thing is re-played so it actu­ally fea­tured three cov­ers in one song. Sim­ply because they didn’t have any rights (nor did they ask for the rights) to sam­ple the orig­i­nal songs. That sum­mer 1982 they per­formed the song for tv-program. See it below. I’m suprised nobody hasn’t mimed that type of cos­tumes and visu­als yet…

Der Da Da Da fol­lows the same prin­ci­ples as disco project. It com­bines Trio — Da Da Da (I Don’t Love You You Don’t Love Me Aha Aha Aha), Falco — Der Kom­mis­sar (Rap’ That), and Meet­ing into a one song and it does that rather good. Prob­a­bly my favorite from the album Domino. Ah the vocoder.

Per Cus­sion All Stars feat Grand­mas­ter Funk — Don’t Stop (320k)

The orig­i­nal 7″ release of “Don’t Stop” from 1983 has been referred to as being the first rap sin­gle in Swe­den. My rip here is from a 12″ release which has no infor­ma­tion when it was released. Must be 1984 or later I guess since this major record label sin­gle release is from that year.

This is not actu­ally rap though, Grand­mas­ter Funk just keeps adding some party shouts on top of disco-funkish grooves. Nice info about the Don’t Stop LP: there is a state­ment that “All Linn drum parts were played man­u­ally, no pro­gram­ming.” — PHEW & WOW!

Jack­sons feat Mick Jag­ger — State Of Shock (320k)

I’ll be DJing today for 5 hours in a local Jack & Jones clothes shop. Heard some­one there wanted it to be ALL MICHAEL JACKSON MUSIC. Rea­sons unknown. Think it ain’t gonna be only Michael. Any­ways, I’ll try my best to keep it in the Jackson’s fam­ily. Some other bits and pieces thrown in for some change of tone, though.

Below is what they was gonna release orig­i­nally but for some rea­sons it was Mick who ended up being on the record.

Spe­cial mix by dzei. It’s finally get­ting colder and darker so what we need is deep, min­i­mal but melodic sound­track. Per­son­ally I’m very sat­is­fied with the out­come of this mix. Hope that’ll you enjoy it too. Track­list below.
