🎃 A forgotten world of Halloween disco! Louis La Roche takes over The Young Punx FM Podcast for APOCALYPSO DISCO, a special DJ mix unearthing obscure 1970s disco records inspired by ghosts, vampires, monsters and gloriously camp horror. If you’re tired of hearing the same old Halloween party tracks, there’s a whole lost treasure trove of spooky disco waiting to be discovered!
Back in the heyday of disco, horror and Halloween inspired a wonderfully bizarre little corner of the genre. Novelty records, supernatural themes, spooky sound effects and irresistible disco grooves collided in a wave of kitsch, theatrical dancefloor madness. Most of these records have long since disappeared from the usual DJ playlists.
Fortunately, Louis La Roche has been digging through the crates to hunt down these forgotten vinyl curiosities and bring them back to life in one brilliantly entertaining mix.
The perfect soundtrack for a Halloween party that needs something a little more adventurous than Thriller and Ghostbusters!
It’s the apocalypse. So welcome to the disco… 🪩👻
