12 Songs: Dance Eclectic Vol. 1
When was the last time that you danced like nobody was watching? Be honest: was anyone watching?
A follow up: Which side of the bed did you wake up on this morning? Did you take your coffee black? Headed into the evening, are you feeling more glam or gloom? More New York nightclub or Berlin batcave? Bootsy Collins or Robert Smith?
Regardless of your current temperament, our first dance-adjacent playlist has you covered. Featuring:
Funkadelic. Parliament’s fucked-up little cousin, born of George Clinton’s Maggot Brain.
ESG. Stands for: Emerald, Sapphire, and Gold. Should stand for: Every, Song, Grooves.
Magazine. Howard Devoto’s post-Buzzcocks project. Equal parts BeeGees and Sex Pistols.
Chic. Expect a Nile Rodgers track on each one of these going forward. —Jackson Todd
