BLACK DEVIL DISCO CLUB

ALBUM REVIEW FROM DISCOGS:
This is a very obscure release by one of the earliest of the euro disco artists who would later personify an entire genre. Originating from France, this release developed a major cult following all over Europe during the last 25 years and it is now considered to have been a major influence on many of the early 80's italo disco and euro disco artists who emerged on the scene shortly after this release. As for this LP - it's a 2-sided vinyl release with 6 songs all having a copycat sound effect that makes each song sound similar to the others. The only difference is a few tweeks to the synthesizer, the speed of the drum machine's BPM and some different vocals which ultimately allowed the amateur artists behind the Black Devil act to create their one and only LP. The songs were all recorded in real-time and all begin with that dark and wicked drum beat that sounds less like a disco song but more like the procession of a tribal ceremony in the jungles of Africa. Very bizarre, very rare, and very good music. Get it if you can!

"It's hard to tell whether it's a joke or not, but the original release from Black Devil Disco Club came out on Rephlex a couple years back and was reportedly originally recorded in 1978 by a mysterious French duo named Joachim Sherylee and Junior Claristidge. Eventually, it was discovered that the person behind the music was a French producer by the name of Bernard Fevre." - almostcool
