In spite of the shadow of AIDs and reactionary political and media forces both at home and in the USA, the period 1980 1990 bore witness to a dazzling explosion of dance music that artfully drew a line from the peak of late 70s disco to the emergence of house and it's 90s glory days. The art of the 12\" single, the thrill of the remix, the rise of the superclub, the electronic spark of chart pop, the challenging of gender barriers... all had their origin in the gay clubs. It's not unreasonable to make the claim that by the end of the 80s, virtually ALL chart pop music sounded like it had it's origins on the dancefloors of Heaven nightclub! Over 5CDs Box Of Sin strives to tell the story of that decade across 54 tracks, and to tease apart the strands of 80s gay clubbing to show a period of unrivalled creativity and disco diversity. Via the box's themed discs it shows how high energy became house, how gender bending synth bands took over the pop charts, how pop stars the whole world over found a route to fame via the gay clubs, and how the era's biggest producers aimed their masterworks purely at the dancefloor. High energy, deep house, Eurobeat, synthpop, divas, acid house... all combine to paint a picture of a rich and vibrant lifestyle. Along the way, Box Of Sin unearths some overlooked gems rarely compiled today: meanwhile some of the decade's biggest names in club music gather to get into the picture from Whitney Houston to Dead Or Alive, Bananarama to Bronski Beat, Aretha Franklin to Inner City. Based on the actual club charts at the time and with a stunning design package inspired by the small ads section of 80s gay press, Box Of Sin comes fully annotated and with an introduction by renowned gay author Paul Burston. Throughout, it's illustrated with photography documenting 80s gay clubbers in action, provided for Demon by The Bishopsgate Institute, the UK's LGBTQ+ archive. The project also resurrects the much-loved brand 'Disco Discharge', a recognizable hallmark of quality among collectors and aficionados of club music heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Energy (Extended Version) - Evelyn Thomas 1984\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e I Like You (Extended Version) - Phyllis Nelson 1985\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Boys Come to Town (Extended Version) - Earlene Bentley 1983\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e In the Evening (Original 12\" Version) - Sheryl Lee Ralph 1984\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Jump (For My Love) (12\" Long Version) - the Pointer Sisters 1984\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Body Rock (Dance Mix) - Maria Vidal 1984\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Another Night (Dance Mix) - Aretha Franklin 1985\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e They Say It's Gonna Rain (The Zulu Mix) - Hazell Dean 1985\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tell It to My Heart (Club Mix) - Taylor Dayne 1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Love Will Save the Day (Extended Remix) - Whitney Houston 1988\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e This Time I Know It's for Real (Extended Remix) - Donna Summer 1989\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Passion (Full Length Album Version) - the Flirts 1982\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Male Stripper (Original Extended U.S. Remix) - Man 2 Man Meet Man Parrish 1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Love Reaction (12\" Version) - Divine 1983\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e So Many Men So Little Time (Extended Version) - Miquel Brown 1983\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Give Me Your Love (Ultimix) - Sisley Ferré 1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Midnight Lover (12\" Version) - People Like Us 1985\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Rocket to Your Heart (Remix) - Lisa 1983\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Heartbeat (One Two Three Mix) Vivien Vee 1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tonight (Italo Remix) - Ken Laszlo 1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Can't Take My Eyes Off You (12\" Version) - Boys Town Gang 1981\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e No G.D.M.
