The UK’s finest disco operators, Horse Meat Disco, return with another killer album of tried and tested underground disco, Italo and rarities that have been rocking crowds from their base in Vauxhall, London, to dancefloors worldwide during 2009-10.

Since their acclaimed debut compilation on Strut in 2009, residents James Hillard, Jim Stanton, Severino and Luke Howard (aka Filthy Luka) have continued to lead the way with their packed residencies at The Eagle, London, Lux in Lisbon, Tape in Berlin and Cihan in Istanbul. During 2010, as well as revisiting UK festivals like Glastonbury, Lovebox and T In The Park, they will be spreading the disco love to some of the world’s leading festivals also so watch this space!

Horse Meat Disco Volume 2 brings together another essential selection of New York classics alongside a host of lesser known discoveries for all fans of underground disco. Anthems include Zanzibar favourite ‘You Can Get Over’ by Stephanie Mills, Italo staple ‘Walkman’ by Kasso and Rinder & Lewis’ ‘Afrodesia’ under their El Coco pseudonym. Rarities include ‘I’m Not In Love (Girl You’re In Love)’ by Freda Payne’s sister Scherrie, ‘Cherchez Pas’ by Swedish model-turned-singer Madleen Kane and Italo oddity ‘’Touch Me Now’ by Bravo.

Horse Meat Disco is dedicated to the industry of human happiness and it pumps it out every Sunday at THE EAGLE LONDON (formerly South Central). Its the queer party for everyone; Homos and Heteros, club kids, bears, fashionistas, naturists, guerilla drag queens and ladies who munch. Musically its a disco behemoth of classics, italo disco, oddities, punk funk in the friendliest venue south of the river. Plus weekly buffet, happy hour, decorations, and spontaneous acts of exhibitionism.

Born in 1981, Boris Brejcha was involved in music since early childhood.
His education included drums and keyboard lessons. This was a perfect foundation for the next step - producing and performing electronic dance music.
Boris Brejcha began producing and DJ-ing in November 2006. After both his first online MP3 debut "Monster" EP and the next EP titled "Yellow Kitchen" reached number one on many download platforms, he became the new techno shooting star and started playing gigs not only in his home country Germany, but also internationally.

Despite a common misperception, his music is not easily digestible, and can be more challenging to the average minimal/techno/hard house listener. He brings to the minimal sound a new sense of adventure, combining elements from electro, breaks, idm, and even sometimes (if you look really closely) some ambient arrangements in an attempt to expand the spectrum of minimal.

Boris Brejcha is also known under the moniker Anna which mirrors the more technoid and dark side of him.

Anna aka Boris Brejcha has released on labels like Harthouse, Regular and of course AUTIST.records (where it all started...) and his releases have been supported by the likes of John Digweed, Sasha, Richie Hawtin and Microfunk a lot since then.

Frankenthal, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
