lol disco lives on.So many artists and bands today are going for a retro/disco/funk sound.Last year,Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines album featured several disco-sounding tracks.Jamiroquai is another act that can't seem to get disco out of their system,lol.

Yeah I think even my boy Bruno Mars uses it in some of his songs....especially treasure. Check out the instrumental (with hook) version of the song. It's totally disco (and I love it!) smile

I think, disco is still here. It's just called dance music now. Dance music with various subgenre names, due to its progression of style.
