Dirty Soup Present: Vince Aletti's Dirty Disco
First Podcast in a new series commissioned by Dirty Soup.
"Recently Dirty Soup had the pleasure of speaking with Vince Aletti, the renowned former Rolling Stone writer, notable for being the first person to document Disco for the magazine.
Vince was also a senior editor at New York’s Village Voice for almost 20 years, where in his early days he wrote about the emerging dance scene in clubs like The Loft. He currently reviews photography exhibitions for the New Yorker magazine.
We asked Vince to create a list of his favourite Disco tracks and to speak about what makes them special. He tells us how the depth of Disco’s message, and musical innovation, was never truly appreciated at the time, and how it’s influence and push for positivity and acceptance resonate more than ever in today’s music and society.
