Encyclopedia > Disco Mix Club

Disco Mixing Club (DMC) is a worldwide name to all professional and amateur disc jockeys, especially those involved in the avant-garde music genre known as turntablism.

A history of disco music (4764 words)
Disco is an up-tempo style of dance music that originated in the early 1970s, mainly from funk and soul music, popular originally with gay and fl audiences in large U.S. cities, and derives its name from the French word discothèque (meaning nightclub), coined from disc + bibliotèque (library) by La Discothèque in Rue Huchette.
This music was coined disco, of which there are two flavors and time periods: disco 1.0, which is firmly connected to soul and funk in the first half of the seventies and disco 2.0 in the second half of the seventies, as the incarnation of gay hedonistic club culture.
Disco had already been going for ten years when the first electronic drum tracks began to appear out of Chicago, and in that time it had already suffered the slings and arrows of merciless commercial exploitation, dilution and racial and sexual prejudice which culminated in the 'disco sucks' campaign.
Catastrophic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (273 words)
The word was last used officially in Dance Dance Revolution 3rdMIX PLUS, after which all names for the various foot ratings were abolished, but henceforth players would refer to all songs rated nine feet or higher as catas.
The Catastrophic difficulty rating was added because DDR 2nd Mix Club Version 2 had certain songs that were far more difficult than could justify the previous highest rating of eight feet, termed Exorbinant.
The songs in question on that mix were Gentle stress, GRADUISTIC CYBER, LUV TO ME (disco mix) and ska a go go.
