Disco Inferno Key

[Etta Lesniak]

Disco Inferno" is a song by American disco band the Trammps from their fourth studio album of the same name (1976). With two other cuts by the group, it reached No. 1 on the US Billboard Dance Club Songs chart in early 1977, but had limited mainstream success until 1978, after being included on the soundtrack to the 1977 film Saturday Night Fever, when a re-release hit number eleven on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.[1][2]

It was also notably covered in 1993 by American-born singer Tina Turner on What's Love Got to Do with It,[3] and in 1998 by American singer-songwriter Cyndi Lauper on the A Night at the Roxbury soundtrack.[4] Among others who covered this are Damien Lovelock, Hardsonic Bottoms 3, and Vicki Shepard.

The song was originally recorded by the Trammps in 1976 and released as a single. It was inspired by the 1974 blockbuster film The Towering Inferno, in which a party in a top floor ballroom is threatened by a fire that breaks out below.[5] According to Tom Moulton, who mixed the record, the Dolby noise reduction had been set incorrectly during the mixdown of the tracks. When engineer Jay Mark discovered the error and corrected it, the mix had a much wider dynamic range than was common at the time. Due to this, the record seems to "jump out" at the listener. With "Starvin'" and "Body Contact Contract", it topped the U.S. Disco chart for six weeks in the late winter of 1977.[6] On the other U.S. charts, "Disco Inferno" hit number nine on the Black Singles chart, but it was not initially a significant success at pop radio, peaking at number 53 on the Billboard Hot 100.[7]

"Disco Inferno" gained much greater recognition when the nearly 11 minute album version was included on the soundtrack to the 1977 film Saturday Night Fever. Re-released by Atlantic Records, the track peaked at number 11 in the U.S. during the spring of 1978, becoming the Trammps' biggest and most-recognized single. Later, it was included in the Saturday Night Fever musical, interpreted by 'DJ Monty' in the "Odissey 2001" discothque. A cover version of the track was issued by the group Players Association in March 1978 on the Vanguard record label both in 7" and 12" format. It was produced by Danny Weiss and also issued as a track on their 1979 LP Born to Dance.

In 2004, a 12" version with the 10:54-minute version and "Can We Come Together" (from the album Where the Happy People Go) on the B side was released in the UK.[8] This version was certified Silver in 2021 by the British Phonographic Industry.[9]

American singer and actress Tina Turner covered "Disco Inferno" for the What's Love Got to Do with It soundtrack. Released as a single in August 1993 by Parlophone, it was produced by Turner with Chris Lord-Alge and Roger Davies. It charted at number 12 on the UK Singles Chart, and reached the top 20 also in Belgium, Iceland, Ireland, and the Netherlands. The single included remixes by the Beatmasters.

In an 1998 retrospective review of What's Love Got to Do with It, the Daily Vault felt "Disco Inferno" "has a dated title to begin with and the arrangement's enthusiasm doesn't live up to Turner's singing".[17] Upon the release, Alan Jones from Music Week gave the song four out of five, writing, "From the woman whose interpretations are often a million miles away from the original, this is a disappointingly standard interpretation of the old Trammps hit. Having said that, it is a highly commercial song and Tina's one-of-a-kind voice has many admirers, so another big hit is in prospect."[18] A reviewer from People Magazine noted its "dance dramaturgy" and the "characteristic flair and energy that have made Tina the envy of every singer this side of Aretha."[19] Sam Wood from Philadelphia Inquirer found that the "joyous, over-the-top treatment" of the disco classic "reeks of campy white polyester suits and oily sweat under a dance-floor glitter ball."[20] Toby Anstis reviewed the song for Smash Hits, giving it four out of five. He said, "Tina pulls off this cover really well. It's nice hearing a rauchy female rock voice like that. I think I prefer this version to the original. I'd boogie to that any time at a party. I think I'd go and see the film about her soon too. Yeah, she's great."[21]

In the Billboard magazine dated May 16, 1998, in the "Dance Trax" column, there was a story on remixers Bobby Guy and Ernie Lake, aka Soul Solution: "They are working with Cyn on a chest-pounding rendition of 'Disco Inferno'. The cut will be featured on the forthcoming soundtrack to A Night At Roxbury."

Although the original release date of the maxi single was August 3, 1999, it was distributed from July 24 in some regions. The single was officially released in the U.S. in August 1999. Lauper performed it at many shows, including her Summer Tour '99, around the time of its release. The song was nominated for a Grammy in the category of 'Best Dance Recording' for the 1999 awards.

Mike G is a runner with Team RunRun and after crushing his race at the Houston Marathon in early 2020, he decided he wanted to take on a different challenge: Cover as many miles as possible in Discovery Park in Seattle, WA, all unsupported, all within the park hours. The goal was 100 miles but the experience took on much more meaning than any time or mileage goal. This is a summary of his experience, the challenges he faced, and the emotions he went through.

No one hears any sound the same way. Every emotional and intellectual response to a song is a tangled network of deep-seated memories and social pressures. The banalest hook can inexplicably reduce someone to tears, while a passionate crescendo might be deflected off an impenetrable shield of self-seriousness. A pealing lead atop a thunderous kick might be instantly triggering for one dancer, while another is having their future emotional response to music shaped in that very moment. With the first release on his new, pointedly titled label Disco Inferno, I Hate Models teases the possibility of inspiring moments of intense, soul-wrenching nostalgia in one listener and blasting open new neural pathways to profound sentiment in another.Pre-order : -inferno.bandcamp.com/album/disco-inferno-01

Hikes, waterfront and slip and slide oh my! What a wonderful day we had. Our Ooey Gooey and Silly Scientists had fun making messy things that stretched and erupted. Our Boots and Spurs gals took on the archery range while also enjoying time on the waterfront.

Later in the evening Timbercrest at Night did a night hike to Gypsy point where they sang over the lake to our JCITs. They also took the time to look at the stars and even had a chance to see some shooting stars. Stories of the constellations were told and discovered. When they returned to main camp the Super moon greeted them, so they laid in the upper meadow to enjoy a few more moments for starry night magic.

DISCO INFERNO is a new Netflix horror short film that any horror fan should enjoy. Well, certainly anyone who appreciates the more demonic side of horror movies, anyway. The story begins in one time period but ultimately plays out a few decades later.

For our dancing queen, however, things are about to get quite diabolic in the old church turned into a discotheque. Try to pay attention to just how many upside-down crucifixes you can catch in this Netflix horror short. There are quite a lot in both the background and various reflections.

Matthew Castellanos is the co-writer and director of the new horror short film. He wrote it with co-writer Mike Ambs. Previously, Matthew Castellanos has been working in the fantasy and horror genre, so his career is already dedicated to genre productions.

If glitter had a sound, it would come from LA musician Gavin Turek. Her music, most notably on recent EP Good Look for You, is a shimmering mass of delight, a clear throwback to the disco era that still somehow feels crisply fresh. After years of experimenting with different genres, including gorgeous electro collaborations with producer TOKiMONSTA, Gavin has come into her own as a full-fledged disco queen, complete with custom costumes and well-honed dancing skills.

Nuna is refreshingly thoughtful and introspective, and more than happy to indulge my philosophical trains of thought; the arrival of our order of mozzarella sticks is enough to trigger an existential train of thought about culinary arts as the most primal form of human creativity. We discussed returning to the root of her love for music, staying true to herself, and riding the wave of the new digital revolution. Read our conversation below.
