Greg Wilson jammed a great selection of electrofunk, disco, house and everything in between at an outdoor bar gig in Bondi on a Thursday night. A hell of a treat for about 150 people who were there to check it out. Note the old Revox in the background of the above shot! He worked some slick edits and jams, including the bassline from Roxy Music’s “Love Is The Drug” with Gwen Stefani’s “Hollaback Girl”, Steve Wonder’s “Superstition” and even the 80s pop hit “Walk Like An Egyptian” by The Bangles.

The playing of such popular tracks for many might be a little droll, and ordinarily it would be for me, however it’s the pastiche – the edits, additions of drums, fusions of basslines and just doing things a little differently that adds to the appeal – think of someone like Richie Hawtin, but in this instance someone who doesn’t use minimal house and techno to create the blend of sounds and isn’t so heavily reliant on new technologies.

Top that all off with a supremely friendly crowd and the full seventeen minute Patrick Cowley mix of “I Feel Love” to close out, not to forget the Little Creatures Pale Ale available by the pint at the bar and you had a fine Thursday night of fun.
