SUMMARY:Dimitri From Paris | Day Time Disco
LOCATION:Joshua Brooks
DESCRIPTION:Dimitri From Paris brings disco\, boogie and house to the Joshu
 a Brooks basement\, forty years on from the bedroom edits that started it 
 all. He has always been explicit about what he does. He never set out to b
 e a producer. He wanted to be a remixer\, and he traces the whole approach
  back to editing records at home in the early 80s\, frustrated that his fa
 vourites were never long enough and never had the break he wanted. The aim
 \, as he has described it\, is to build the remix that could have existed 
 but did not\, then carry that music to people who know it from the radio r
 ather than the floor. That method produced the reference versions of some 
 of the most valuable catalogue in dance music. Le Chic Remix\, released on
  Defected in 2018\, handed him the original studio masters from roughly 19
 78 to 1980\, and his reworks of Chic\, Sister Sledge\, Norma Jean Wright a
 nd Sheila and B. Devotion have been standard issue in disco sets ever sinc
 e. Add the Salsoul re-edits and the Philadelphia International remixes and
  you have a body of work most selectors are playing whether they realise i
 t or not. His most significant recent record arrived in February 2026. The
  Nassau Excursion\, released on Rush Hour\, is the first studio collaborat
 ion between Dimitri and François Kevorkian\, around thirty years after th
 e two first met in the DJ booth at Tokyo's Spacelab Yellow. Three tracks b
 uilt on the Caribbean post-disco sound of Island Records' Compass Point St
 udio in the Bahamas: weighty basslines\, drum machine beats\, early 80s sy
 nths and arrangements drenched in tape delay and space echo. Piccadilly Re
 cords reckoned it the best dubbed-out disco record in a decade. The year h
 as kept moving since. April brought a collaboration with Bellaire on the F
 rench producer's debut album Born Funky\, and May a remix package for Spac
 e's Carry On\, Turn Me On alongside DJ Deep. He also sits on the roster fo
 r Glitterbox's first season at Amnesia\, running across the Ibiza summer. 
 Which is what makes this one worth attention. His Manchester history runs 
 through rooms like Albert Hall and Victoria Baths\, and most of his 2026 d
 iary is terraces and festival stages. A basement set at this scale is a di
 fferent proposition entirely. Joshua Brooks suits this music better than a
  bigger room would. The basement sits under the bricked arches on Princess
  Street\, low and close\, with no sightline to anything except the booth a
 nd the floor. The Void Acoustics rig handles weight and detail in equal me
 asure\, which matters for a selector working with dub-heavy Compass Point 
 material one minute and full string arrangements off the Chic masters the 
 next. Both need a system that holds the low end without flattening everyth
 ing above it. See you at the front.\n\nBoletos: https://www.fatsoma.com/e/
