Dr Dunks - Keep it Cheap

  • Share
  • Disco edits are trending downward at the moment, a bit of relief as reworks had been getting lazier and lazier, when they're not outright boots. But much as he did before disco experienced a revival a few years ago, Rub N Tug/Still Going's Eric Duncan, AKA Dr. Dunks, marches on, a cottage industry unto himself. As if the C.O.M.B.I. imprint weren't enough, Dunks's has commenced a new edit label. The A-side lends the new series its name, a funky incessant stomper with a chopped vocal uttering "lights all around me" and "bring us together," making it a no-brainer for peak time. But it's the b-side that will have tongues wagging. First heard during DJ Harvey's Beats in Space appearance in January, Dunks dug deep into the '80s countrypolitan cheapy bin to come away with a sultry edit. Keeping the honky-tonk dark slink and rhinestone clacks of the original track, he re-jiggers the woozy guitar solo, and cuts away the nasally chorus. It's a fairly simple way to make an edit, true, yet in never allowing release to come, "No P's" revels in its "potential."
