It’s been another incredible year for house music and disco with producers all over the globe helping grow the scene in the most positive of ways. Over the next few days I’ll be bringing some of the tracks, albums and artists who, for us at Le Visiteur, have really delivered something special and giving them some well deserved attention.

First up are our 9 favourite remixes of 2022. Here producers have taken a track and flipped it into something fresh and incredible. Each one of these remixes brought something special to the plate whether it was completely reinvigorating a classic or taking something fresh and giving it a serious club re-rub.

These tracks aren’t any any order other than alphabetical, they all have something a little special so make sure you check out all nine.

Bassfort Moonshadow Joe Joaquin Claussell Remix Local Talk

Bassfort – Moonshadow (Joe ‘Joaquin’ Claussell Remix) [Local Talk]

This is the second year that Joe Claussell has featured in our remixes of the year following his immense remix of Vince Watson’s Progress back in 2020, and it’s another must have record.

His remix of Bassfort’s Moonshadow was part of the always brilliant Local Talks 10th Anniversary releases. Apparently much deliberation went into choosing the artist to remix this track, a celebration of the first track ever track released by Local Talk. Joe Claussell was an inspired choice. Safe to say that he did them proud delivering an utterly sumptuous and spellbinding slice of house music.

At 11 minutes long, it’s not nearly long enough and encapsulates everything that is wonderful about house music.

Bianca Tabu Ruf Dugs Extended Caribbean Dub NuNorthern Soul

Bianca – Tabu (Ruf Dugs Extended Caribbean Dub) [NuNorthern Soul]

We love a bit of Balearic here at Le Visiteur and Ruf Dug’s re-imagining of Bianca’s Tabu is stunning.

The story behind this one is ace. Bianca only made a handful of records and would have faded into obscurity had it not been for her track Tabu, a loved-up, life-affirming dance-floor gem.

A favourite of NuNorthern Soul’s Phil Cooper, he tracked down the last mint copy via original producer Felix B Mangione (Blanco Y Negro) organised high-quality digital transfers & tasked Faze Action’s Robin Lee to re-master.

The final step was commissioning Manchester’s Ruf Dug to remix. He took this already glorious track onto a whole other level delivering 10 minutes of undulating, expressive hands-in-the-air Balearic piano heaven.

Bohannon Lets Start to Dance Again Dimitri From Paris

Bohannon ft Dr Perri Johnson vs Dimitri From Paris – Let’s Start To Dance Again [Unidisc]

If I had to pick on track which really hooked me on the possibilities of Disco then it’s would be the rip roaring Let’s Start to Dance again. It’s probably fair to say that it’s my most played disco track ever. I’ve not found a dancefloor yet where it doesn’t cause raptures.

This is another anniversary release, this time celebrating Unidisc’s 40th.

Here disco legend Dimitri From Paris delivers 2 subtle and tasteful reworks which beef everything up in all the right places and whilst still staying absolutely true to the brilliant original. He has delivered tracks which sound absolutely at home on the 2022 dancefloor.

The more dubby Super Disco blend is my weapon of choice here, it’s chunky, and ridiculously funky. A must have!

The 12″ also features the original and Part II from the 1981 album Alive.

D.C. LaRue Let Them Dance Dr Packers Robotic Dub Mix Only Good Vibes Music

D.C. LaRue – Let Them Dance (Dr Packer’s Robotic Dub Mix) [Only Good Vibes Music]

Only Good Vibes has been a label on fire in 2022. This track also had a huge Opolopo remix earlier in the year which could just as easily have made this list had Dr Packer not landed this absolute monster remix in August.

This one has been a mainstay of Le Visiteur DJ sets since dropping through our digital inbox.

Packed with energy, it’s a peak time bomb of a track with his thumping bassline, hooky vocal and soundsytem rocking drums. Only Good Vibes are keeping the DC Larue love flowing throughout 2022 and below.

Diogo Strausz Emancipacao Ron Trent Remix Razor N Tape

Diogo Strausz – Emancipacao (Ron Trent Remix) [Razor-N-Tape]

Razor-N-Tape is another label which had an stellar year, including opening their own record store in Brooklyn.

Originally released in 2021 Diogo Strausz 7″ Emancipacao was one of the stand-out moments of last year.

Razor-N-Tape revisited the track in 2022 with a remix by Prescription Records head honcho Mr Ron Trent.

As we have now come to expect from Ron, he crafted a wonderful remix utilising the incredible musicianship of the original and adding in tribal drums and layers of percussion to take this one off to the finest club floors.

Lady Blackbird Lost And Looking Colleen Cosmo Murphy Cosmodelica

Lady Blackbird – Lost And Looking (Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy Cosmodelica Remix) [Foundation]

Taken from on of the albums of 2021 Lady Blackbird’s Black Acid Soul here the guiding light behind the Lucky Cloud Loft Party as well as Classic Album Sunday’s, and so much more, Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy grabs the remix honors. We had a full interview with Colleen when this track landed which you can check HERE.

Lost and looking’ is a sparse and evocative cover of Sam Cook’s original track. On the remix Colleen flipped it into a straight to the dancefloor throbbing powerhouse club track replete with funky guitar licks, laser synth stabs and acidic edges.

Delfonic Dont Stop Dancing Nomada Records

Delfonic – Don’t Stop Dancing [Nómada Records]

Delfonic has had a brilliant year and he kick started it perfectly with his second EP for Nómada.

Lead track Don’t stop dancing is another high energy peak time gem with a similar euphoric spirit to Charles Vaughan Got To Keep On The Move above.

Hook laden vocals, huge percussive breakdowns and all manner of carnival vibes are thrown into the disco pot here and the result is a disco blaster of the highest proportions.

Tullio De Piscopo – Stop Bajon Michael Gray remix High Fashion Music

Tullio De Piscopo – Stop Bajon (Michael Gray remix) [High Fashion Music]

Giving a 2022 touch to another Balearic classic, here UK house don Michael Gray delivered beautifully on Tullio De Piscopo’s 1984 gem Stop Bajon.

A mainstay of Ibizan DJ’s and a longtime Le Visiteur favourite this excellent remix just pipped Michaels ace rework of Firefly’s Love is Gonna Be on your side to land on the list.

Michael has really found an(other) winning formula this year lending a trusted pair of hands to some of the finest labels around looking to bring their classic catalogue to a whole new legion of fans. A beautiful remix!
