i discovered this amazing and hilarious classic bollywood film called Disco Dancer (1985) whose music is made using old drum machines.
I sampled the first track and added some beats, melodies and acid line (my first one, using audiorealism software).
here the result.
i hope youll like it, i had some fun doing it!
and if anyone wants to help me to do a whole 'disco dancer remixed album' you can find the entire film on youtube ;)
(i also did a reggae-feel interpretation slowing down same sample)

here film main theme.
i think i made a shorter version of the tune, cutting the central interlude and trying to enhance bass and stuff, but youtube sound quality sucks, and the only album-version i found on the net was not as good as the film version... just let me know if anyone interested!

To be completely honest, I'm not that interested in remixes, but I am interested in old (and weird) electronica, so I'll have to give this a listen. Thanks for pointing me there.
According to wikipedium it's a 1982 film, and one of the songs on the soundtrack is influenced by Video Killed The Radio Star. That sounds magnificent.
Looks like the album is on Spotify, too.

hahaha yeah i remember that part, me thinking 'wtf that totally sounds like video killed the radio star'. The film is totally worth a watch, amazing what they do with a little budget, that kind of lo-fi naif cinema that brings a smile in your face.

hi mohamed!
i agree with you that it would have been better to do a shorter version, but the acid line was tweeked live and i like how it fits in some parts and i did it like a couple of months ago and never found the time to arrange and properly finish it, so i left it like this...

"i did it like a couple of months ago"
Did you do this a couple of months ago? Whenever you did it, it's racist in my book.

The film seems to be a big bollywood classic, known all arround Asia.
It was a guy from Bangladesh who showed it to me, in a deep emotion, telling me it was his favourite film ever and that he had seen it hundreds of times.
Later one day i was singing the disco dancer song and a guy from Nepal was really impressed i knew it. He also told me the same history, about the film being very famous, and he being a big fan of the main actor.
I assume it is like some Hollywood films (like Grease for example) that everybody know arround America and Europe

These are pretty good. Old school funky shit goes really well with shuffle beatz, so perhaps more shuffle could add more funk (i.e. less rave, more house).
The *untsi~ untsi~ untsi~ untsi~* is pretty ravey, but not enough other rave elements to hold it together in that sense (except for at the end of the first track, it starts to hold together). It's so ravey that just high pitched vocals would make it happy hardcore.
Perhaps some influence from the big beat greats could add funk points. Well, I'm basically just referring to Norman Cook, though.

It isnt bad at all, but like most IDM lacking effects and stuff, sounding too clinical. But what do I know...
