Celebrating 50 years since the release of the iconic Cathedrals album, U.S. disco legend D.C. LaRue returns with never-before-released remixes of all four original classics—pressed on strictly limited vinyl.
Top contemporary disco producers The Reflex, Dr. Packer, and Mannix breathe new life into LaRue’s 1976 masterpiece:
• The Reflex (Stevie Wonder, Cerrone) delivers dancefloor-driven edits using digitized analog multitracks.
• Dr. Packer (First Choice, Loleatta Holloway) reinvents one of LaRue’s biggest hits with fresh, soulful energy.
• Mannix, head of Dafia Records, adds deep, dubby textures to complete this dynamic remix package.
Each track is respectfully reimagined—maintaining the emotional depth of the originals while enhancing clarity, rhythm, and relevance with modern production.
Bonus: Includes two standout remixes from LaRue’s second LP The Tea Dance—"Overture" (The Reflex) and "O Ba Ba" (Mannix).
These remixes aren’t just nostalgic—they’re timeless. Essential for collectors, DJs, and anyone who lives for disco.
