Christian Beetz - "Cappuccino - Cappuccino" (1980)



Christian Beetz is a dj/producer from Hamburg, Germany that we really respect for being so dedicated to the disco scene. His choice is a disco album released in Spain in 1980 called "Cappuccino - Cappucino" and his favourite track is the fourth track from this record called "Tomorrow"

(here's the record on Discogs)

Check out Christian's blog Frequency Without Control for many really nice disco tunes, the FRWCTRL Facebook Group and also FRWCTRL on Soundcloud for many edits by Christian (check out his latest Sophia National - Exotic Love (Christian edit) and my favourite Sandra - In The Heat of The Night (Balearic Edit).

If you ever go to Hamburg you might wanna check this page and maybe you'll be lucky to catch a Take A Disco Party (events that Christian makes with two friends of his, also djs from Hamburg - Claude Kaiser and Jules Julius, and where they had guests like Marcello Giordani and Paolo Chinatown)

Lee Douglas - "Eddie Gale's Ghetto Music" (1968)



We had the chance of meeting mister Lee Douglas last year (2011) when he was in Bucharest invited by Bogman and we asked him to pick a favourite record, something that he really enjoys for Disco Sigaretta.
His choice - Eddie Gale's Ghetto Music (1968) (here's the record on Discogs)

Lee Douglas is well known for his house/disco productions that you can find at Rong Music, Beatport and on Discogs. He's also in two projects, one that is called The Stallions (ESP Institute) with Lovefingers, and another one with Justin Vandervolgen, called TBD.


Download - Lovefingers & L. D. : A Night In Babylon (Live in Istanbul) and also three great shows on BIS with Lee Douglas :

Cheers Chris - "Phantomband" (1980)


If you ever go to Berlin and you are looking for records, Christian Pannenborg (aka Cheers Chris) is one of the persons you really have to meet, he helped us buy some stuff that we couldn't find in other record stores and also recommended us some really interesting artists that we didn't hear about, he really knows his stuff. At Soju Club in Berlin, each month, he also does the nights he called "Institute of Harmless Thinking" and had guest like Lovefingers, Basso, Chee, Soft Rocks and Tyedie.

Of course we had to ask him to pick some records also for DS and here's his first choice - Phantom Band with their self titled album (here's the album on Discogs). He also chose this track as his favourite... "I'm The One". Also you can listen to the whole album on Youtube here. Enjoy!

Cheers Chris!
