Eurodisco pt.1

from Love is the Message: Dance, Music and Counterculture · host Love is the Message podcast

In the first episode of 2025 Jeremy and Tim attempted to understand a somewhat maligned genre: Eurodisco. What is it and where did it come from? We hear about the cross-continental currents that gave rise to the form, unpack its aesthetics and spend time with some of its key proponents like the French composer and drummer Cerrone. Tim and Jeremy also take time to unpack the Switched On Classics, play us an infamous Beethoven reinvention, ask what the Enlightenment has to answer for, and compare Eurodisco and another genre that riles people up, prog rock. Tracklist: The SalSoul Orchestra - Magic Bird of Fire The Walter Murphy Band - A Fifth of Beethoven  Kongas - Jungle Cerrone - Love in C Minor Love and Kisses - I’ve Found Love (Now That I’ve Found You)
