  • London DJ and producer Toby Tobias has compiled Underground Disco, an upcoming collection from Ministry Of Sound. Tobias is a natural pick for a contemporary disco collection. For years he's released a steady stream 12-inches on Rekids, including his 2008 slow-burner The Feeling, and had tracks appear on nu-disco establishments like Tirk, Nang and Bearfunk. For a genre so often rooted in nostalgia, Underground Disco is remarkably locked in the present: the majority of Tobias's picks were released in the past two years. Popular disco staples like azariiii" data-artist-news-link="true">Azari & III and Hercules & Love Affair make the cut, but the tracklist also features lesser-known acts like Portugese duo Gala Drop and Golf Channel Records mainstay DJ Nature. A few house and indie tunes are thrown in as well, like Nicolas Jaar's "Time for Us" and Caribou's "Odessa." The release will be Tobias's debut on Ministry of Sound. Tracklist CD1: 01.
