is it eurodisco or just regular disco/house though
Is that a distinction without difference? To me it's eurodisco because of how precise the production is, and because Markosa are from Europe (well, the continent, up until someone installs some motors on some of the British Isles) - but that's not a lot to go on, I'll grant.

I did discover that their label did put out an album called Revoke Loves Disco under the catalogue ID RVLP004, so I'm gonna need to get that bought I think.

EDIT: Of course, house also has its roots firmly planted in disco, so that makes it even harder to make the distinction.

I've been digging into eurodisco recently, and here's some of the most-played artists from the last fortnight according to foobar2000:
Patrick Hernandez
Nick Straker Band
Donna Summer (worked with Moroder, basically the father of eurodisco)
Cerrone (who recently did a brand loving new album, and he's in his 70s, and despite this, it's actually good!)
Stardust
Tommy Seebach
Electric Light Orchestra
Dady Freyr
ABBA
Blank & Jones
MaiTai
Pet Shop Boys
Boney M
Daft Punk (yes, I know what you're gonna say, but their second album is named Disco-very, Q.E.D)
Horse Meat Disco
Thanks (features two of the folks from Alphabeat, but it's a shame they never really took off)
Markosa
Diana Ross (also worked with Moroder)

I think it’s funny, and the discussion was going to go p similarly whether or not you used the AIDS word because you weren’t going to be viewed in good faith either way by some primary actors here and they’ve made that message plain and clear by still not even discussing the underlying sub thread issue let alone doing anything about it.

I was making enough to get by when Lowtax owned the site. The incoming owner was making a point of paying everyone better. Having more creative freedom and making more money was a good thing, and it seemed weeks or a few months away.

I didn't think I was going to become CEO of the iternet and retire with a golden parachute. It was a goofy job, but overseeing the relaunch of something I cared about was appealing.

What is with goons who do poo poo like this? See also the biking thread of all places who started dropping N bombs to force a user to change their name cause it was also a slur that no one has heard about or used in 200 years. And said user was black.

Corin Tucker's Stalker sold me a digital code for the Switch version of Baldur's Gate 1+2 a couple of years ago at a good price via SA Mart and through this simple act has shown more integrity and follow through than Jeffrey has since he bought the site so I for one am going to believe his claims.
