70年代にDJたちがオープンリールで音源を持ち込み、DJのために少量のプレスを行なっていたアセーテートシステム、SUNSHINE SOUNDが復活し、バイナルリリースをスタートしたリリース。第3弾リリース到着です。WALTER GIBBONSの貴重なエディット。
Here are 2 Tons of driving disco gospel Edits circa 1980 from NY's legendary Walter Gibbons.
Walter is heavy on the groove with a live turntable mix & intensifies the message with an impactful Edit. These artefacts are a glimpse of the personal Edits & unique creations that came from Walter's Room, highlighting the raw talent of this Disco pioneer.
Take a journey to the dawn of DJ culture with Sunshine Sound, the NY imprint that through a series of genre defining Disco Edits became recognised as the 'Birthplace of the Edit'.
These 'Disco Adjustments' would become the hottest tracks in a DJ's crate, spawning countless bootlegs & imitations since they first appeared so many years ago.
As influential as these recordings were, most only appeared as acetate discs individually cut in mono & sold direct to DJs.
Some of these were cut in such small quantities it could be debated as to whether they ever really existed at all.
40 years later and all that remains are remakes & rumours...
...or so it was thought.
Sunshine Sound rises again to bring you a series of classic, legendary & mythical Edits.
Travel back with us to re-discover monumental works that helped shape the sound of dance music as we deepen the textures of history with a series of exclusive Digital & limited Vinyl releases selected from the vault.
Sunshine Sound releases are distributed by Moonshine Sound, bringing you antiquities of historical Disconificance.

ディスコDJのパイオニアの一人で、リミックス、エディットというカルチャーを産み出した先駆者の一人にして天才、Walter GibbonsによるTwo Tons O' Funの「Earth Can Be Just Like Heaven」、アセテート盤のみのエディット。(DISCOGSには、1980年当時のアセテートの貴重な画像があります。) B-SIDE は、Two Tons O' Fun – Make Someone Feel Happy Todayのブレイク部分を使ったWALTER GIBBONSによるブレンド・ミックス、(ターンテーブルのライヴミックスとの記載がありました)。オカシイです。狂ってる。ディスコの歴史の記憶です。 (サイトウ)
