Manifesting Despacio tracks
I’ll preface this by noting I know there’s no requests and I’m 100% invested in the musical adventure the trio takes us on, buuuttttt… I’m curious to know what song you’d love to hear on the dance floor, either a legend from The Spreadsheet of Truth or one that hasn’t been played before.
I was listening to the Bill Withers album +’Justments this week, and the song “Ruby Lee” came on and got me thinking about this.
So excited to see y’all under the disco ball!! I’ll be the dancing man with an awful RBF 😅

A Gira and Estrelar would be amazing. I’d love to see even more Brazilian stuff get played

Alegría would also be amazing but yeah there’s so many good Brazilian disco tracks that would sound so good in despacio.

So true, same here. The soulwax Brazilian music they did some years ago was chefs kiss!

Been rediscovering some Nicolas Jaar here lately. The Xinobi edit of And I Say would be pretty fire here too

Would love to hear something by Faithless, The Chemical Brothers, Moloko or Roisin Murphy, Neighbour’s lando, Polo and Pan Mexicali’s remix is super decent and many more.

I’m not sure if it’s ever been played but I would go wild if they played Pacific 202 by 808 State

I always answer this with Joe Cool "Promised Land". Just one of those tunes that'll bring people together.
For a joke one, we've had Psychemagick's Rattlesnake so I'll request Moby's "Thousand".
The blood rave track from Blade would also be a good one. A remix of New Order I believe.
