"From Disco to Disco" is a 1996 song recorded by German experimental house music project Whirlpool Productions. It is produced by Eric D. Clark, Justus Köhncke and Hans Nieswandt and was released as the second single from the album, Dense Music. The song was a big hit in clubs and reached number-one in Italy for 9 weeks in the summer of 1997. Additionally it also peaked at number 13 in Belgium and number 54 in the Netherlands. Ten years later, in 2006, the song was released in a new version, like "From Disco to Disco 2006".
Critical reception
Music & Media wrote about the song: "This German production is a killer dancefloor filler, as the Cologne-based house triumvirate radiate a real "Let's do-a-disco-pastiche!" feeling. Serious or not, Eric D. Clark, Justus Köhncke and Hans Niewandt have obviously hit the right key, as this single, taken from their second album Dense Music has already been a hit in Italy. In Holland, it is one of the favourite dance videos on music television channel TMF. Station head of music Erik Kross is enthusiastic about the track, but concedes: "It is a kind of 'love-it-or hate-it' track. A little resistance is always good, though, as it makes people talk about it." However, Kross predicts From Disco To Disco will be around for a while this summer. "Although it won't by far become as big a hit as Bellini's Samba De Janeiro," he suggests, "it has all the elements of a genuine sleeper."[1]
