Steel Pan Disco & House

You just jogged my brain and here’s another Mr. Thing ting I have on a 7” from BBE. Also a deadly Carib-funk jam of the highest order….again, not disco or house but undeniably good.

The Sofrito edit is a killer and is really DJ friendly but the OG is insanely epic……cosmic/afro/carib trip with lots of cool twists and turns!

The house version by Ninetoes is posted above. Not nearly as beautiful and nuanced as the OG or even the Sofrito edit but I can only assume it’s effective for a house set.

Here’s one I remembered.

Good shout, I’d forgotten that. I used to like the panapella mix

Was just going through my collection and found this Aroop Roy re-work that I’m planning on playing this week……

A recent one I’ve been playing a lot. So good!

Honestly super emotional War steelpan cover →

I love this track. It’s a contemporary dub of a steel pan disco cut from '79. Got reissued on Honest Jon a few years ago.
