Horse Meat Disco announce Back To Mine comp and massive summer tour campaign
DJ squad also embark on huge summer tour – full dates below
Horse Meat Disco are the latest act to take on the esteemed Back To Mine sessions, with a May 20 release announced today.
Their personal mix threads the ‘70s strut of Gwen McCrae through to the irrepressible Roisin Murphy, a titillating team-up between Marianne Faithfull & Beck, Chicago house luminary Larry Heard, southern soul, Latin magic, Italian funk, and two exclusive remixes of tracks from their momentous 2020 debut album ‘Love And Dancing’, before climaxing with The RAH Band’s timeless ‘Messages From The Stars’.

The quartet has announced the first three months of a monster summer tour to support the release including UK and European festivals such Glastonbury, GALA, Love Saves The Day, Tomorrowland, Milkshake and Audioriver. Closer to home they will be leading celebrations for 50 years of Pride with a very special show at The Roundhouse in Camden, launch parties at both NT’s and at their spiritual home, The Eagle. Further afield they will be heading out to their residencies in NYC and Berlin.
Jim Stanton and James Hillard began the night in a Chinatown basement before moving to their sacred home The Eagle, where alongside new residents Luke Howard and Severino Panzetta, Sundays soon became the stuff of legend. A party for everyone and their open minds. Where naked poet Ernesto shimmies happily next to Marc Almond or Mick Jagger…it’s that kind of vibe.
“Yes, we are disco,” say Horse Meat Disco, “but we are not stuck in a specific definition of it. We mix it up with a retro vein running through it and with so many new producers trying to emulate the sounds of the 70s and 80s these days, there’s always more music that fits into what we do. If you love dancing and have an open mind, when it comes to music then everything falls into place – especially with Disco which is about love, and as we all know, love is timeless.”
Tagged “a personal collection for after-hours grooving”, Back To Mine is based on what the artist would play at home after a night out, rather than as part of a nightclub session. The first volume of Back To Mine was released in February 1999 by Nick Warren and it went on to include editions by Groove Armada, Orbital, New Order and Roots Manuva. The series was rebooted after a dormant decade in 2019 by Sean Brosnan of Material, with this new iteration witnessing editions by Nightmares on Wax, Jungle and Fatboy Slim.
Back To Mine: Horse Meat Disco is set for release on May 20 on digital, CD and in black, yellow and pink vinyl editions.
Horse Meat Disco has a weekly residency, each Sunday at The Eagle in Vauxhall.
