THE TIME MACHINE is the iconic concept album of France's legendary Eurodisco pioneers - RESONANCE! In this episode of THE GROOVE the TIME MACHINE concept of that classic is expanded to include other disco that takes the listener back to another period of time. Listen to THE TIME MACHINE take you to different periods of time. Let me guide you through periods of history!
On the cover of THE TIME MACHINE the pictured master of ceremonies says the following words:
"TAKE YOUR PLACES. TAKE YOUR TICKETS. THE BIGGEST ATTRACTION OF ALL TIME, A TIME MACHINE, THAT WILL TAKE YOU ON A LIMITLESS VOYAGE. FROM PREHISTORIC MAN TO THE YEAR 3000. FROM ANCIENT EXPLORERS TO THE PERIOD OF CHICAGO GANGSTERS. FROM NOMADIC PEOPLE TO THE ASTRONAUTS OF TOMORROW. FROM THE SENSATION OF THE FANTASTIC AND THE NEW, COME CLOSER, COME CLOSER, TO THE TIME MACHINE AND BON VOYAGE!"
| First THE TIME MACHINE takes you back to ZAIRE (currently the DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO) in 1974 when the SOUL POWER festival brought MUHAMMAD ALA fighting GEORGE FOREMAN in the boxing ring in KINSHASA along with an all star cast of African American performers like JAMES BROWN and B.B. KING appearing with CONGOLESE RUMBA giants like FRANCO and TABU LEY. British REGGAE singer JOHNNY WAKELIN is added with his tribal classic "IN ZAIRE". |

| Now THE TIME MACHINE swings you back to the 19th Century west of North America to experience a rodeo. British DISCO artist MALCOLM MCLAREN is included with the traditional square dance version of his smash ELECTRO/BREAKDANCE song "BUFFALO GALS" right before the "YELLOW TRAIN" takes you eastward towards CHICAGO. |

| THE TIME MACHINE stops in CHICAGO during the 1920's and 1930's to the world of powerful gangsters like Al Capone. "OK CHICAGO"; one of my favourite RESONANCE tracks speeds you racing from bullets to later moments in the mid 20th century. France's world renown dj/producer DIMITRI FROM PARIS is briefly included with his legendary "DIRTY HARRY" remixed by British NUDISCO producers, the IDJUT BOYS. TIN PAN ALLEY artists are included: NAT KING COLE with "DAY IN - DAY OUT" radically remade by American TURNTABLIST, the CUT CHEMIST, and SHIRLEY BASSEY singing "WHERE DO I BEGIN" remixed by American HIPHOP sensations THE AWAY TEAM. Then THE TIME MACHINE springs to the 1940's with an ELECTRO SWING mix from British dj JAMKO's Soundcloud mix BASEMENT SESSIONS and also along with America's legendary DISCO group DR. BUZZARD'S ORIGINAL "SAVANNAH" BAND providing their classic "CHER CHEZ LA FEMME" |

| THE TIME MACHINE takes you to FRANCE and RUSSIA during the 1700's to experience the King. Spain's DJ MOACHEVI provides a remix of CHOPIN's "PRELUDE 4" and RUSSIAN producer AXID delivers a haunting DUBSTEP version of BORODIN's "ULETAI NA KRYLIAH VETRA". Then THE TIME MACHINE sails you westward across the Atlantic ocean with the ambient gem "SAILING WEST" complete with the agonizing solitude explorers in the 1400's endured. |
