Kylie getting good promo this evening on BBC London News.

 

Real Groove played from Infinite Disco and bit of interview

That's nice to hear!

 

Does anyone know remaining promo plans and rollout? TV adverts, perhaps Infinite Disco on ITV, etc.? Also, is it ARIA #1? Do we know yet?

Gonna post my track by track review of 'Disco' in this thread, I've done reviews for all of Kylie's other albums in their respective album discussion topics (you can check them out if u want), I'll do 'Disco' here for now, then re-post if need to.

I’m gonna miss the chart predictions thread being as crazy as it was this week!

 

I’ve only recently become a real Kylie fan (soon to he Stan :lol: ) but this week has been one of my favourite ever weeks on here. The excitement and passion over this album has been brilliant. Took me back to the night Chromatica dropped and the site went crazy then but we didn’t have a huge long thread that week as it wasn’t much of a chart battle :lol: but this week has been WILD!

 

I can’t wait for it to continue. But what a great result anyways. So many impressive stats and a deserved #1. The press she’s had too has all been great as well. I don’t know how much this means but my mam is now wanting to hear the album after she seen on Facebook that Kylie is #1 little things like that can actually make a difference to curiosity sales and streams when it’s a household name like Kylie though.

 

 

The number 1 does help attract the curious listener, ya ice really enjoyed the chart battle all week and the kylie banter in general, the buzz has been so good.

After much deliberating this is my track by track review of Kylie's latest amazing album Disco:




Magic
What a great way to open the album with this smooth & classy track that (pardon the pun) is pure Disco heaven with its cool sophisticated rhythms & slick production which gives the whole thing a colourful uplifting vibe with so many references to previous classics in this genre. So joyful & euphoric, this already ranks as one of Kylie’s staple singles & perfect choice for single #2.

Miss a Thing
This blends in with the previous track so perfectly with cool Disco-pop sounds & Kylie’s amazingly soft & sensual vocals which gives this a nice chilled out vibe that oozes Kylie’s usual style & class. Mature in sound and superbly crafted, Kylie really shows off some great song-writing skills here. Just all-round fantastic, this must be a future single at some point.

Real Groove
The party continues with this infectious banger that begins with a bit of 90’s house piano before heading into a bouncy chorus that has some fun vocal effects & a great sultry melody that glides along beautifully. Definitely one of my fave tracks on this album.

Monday Blues
Switching things up with this quick & sassy number with a lot going on in the production & a ripping chorus that’s hard to understand some of the lyrics at times, but that doesn’t stop this very uplifting anthem from being a hell of a lot of fun which never takes itself too seriously & neither is Kylie’s approach to this song.

Supernova
Another stomping track with a wicked beat, strong commanding vocals that are well placed & a more hard-edged production than anything we’ve heard so far with pumping verses & sensational chorus & of course a very authentic 70’s soundscape. A firm strong standout that may well be another potential single choice.

Say Something
Now we finally get to the lead single & kicking off this era with style that has more of a modern Disco style than the other tracks on the album & yet represents something very different musically for Kylie with some cool grinding guitar licks, stellar euphoric production & a beautiful message about the difficult times we are currently living in. The multi layered vocals & choir adds a superb touch to this already fantastic number. This has to be one of Kylie’s finest musical moments of her career.

Last Chance
Yep you can instantly hear the ABBA nods & yet another well-crafted song with fun verses & a stomping chorus, along with an infectious production that will get stuck in your head. Pure joyful camp fun. Dare I say it yet another highlight on this fabulous album.

I Love It
The buzz single that came only weeks before the album & it’s a great little number that delves deeper into the Disco territory with some slight Latin vibes, along with some bouncy rhythms & a catchy chorus that grooves along at a smooth pace. Although this isn’t as strong as the first 2 singles, still a good track & plus really love the trumpets in the middle which gives this an extra lift.

Where Does the DJ Go
Continuing the 70’s sound with this short snappy number that moves along at a fast pace with its sharp bass-line & fantastic campy hooks. Pure fun & incredibly catchy this really takes you back to a more fun & care-free time.

Dance Floor Darling
This well & truly sparkling quality to it as this takes a more 80’s pop/rock sound with some amazing electric guitars thrown into the mix & of course Kylie’s vocals soars throughout this wonderful track thanks to some stellar production. Then towards the end it really cranks things up & totally goes off the rails, in the best way possible of course. This number gives me Jem & The Holograms vibes for some reason, I don’t know why.

Unstoppable
Taking things down a notch now with this funk disco styled number with an instantly addictive chorus. While this may not be as strong as the album’s other tracks, its still an impressive little number.

Celebrate You
A fitting end to the standard edition of this album with soothing & gentle harmonies with an uplifting yet personal message that’s helped by its epic production, this is just wonderful, so anthemic, euphoric, just love it a closer to end all closers.

Till You Love Somebody
The first of the 4 bonus tracks on here & we get off to a great start here with brilliant beats, great vocals & add some great disco-dance beats & you have a solid standout. This could have easily fitted on the standard edition, its more than welcome.

Fine Wine
A fun little track that bops along at a brisk pace with great opening guitars, some fun feel-good lyrics about celebrating life & plus Kylie raps, which is always fun. It’s a cute little number that’s completely throwaway. Maybe she could use this as a jingle to promote her wine range.

Hey Lonely
Another cute song with some superb beats & rhythms that flows along wonderfully with the positive message of the song. Her killer vocal’s what really sells this nice little number. Just love everything about this track.

Spotlight
The final track on this album which is very similar to the previous track (as well as some of the other tracks on here), but still a fun bop with nice grooves & a catchy chorus. Even though it treads the same ground as some of the other tracks, it’s still a nice enjoyable little closer overall.



Final Thoughts
This album is just incredible from start to finish, surely Kylie's most accomplished work to date. Almost every song is a highlight with countless stand-outs. Is this Kylie's GREATEST ALBUM od her career? Maybe.

Please guys tell me what you guys think...

Loving the free publicity a chart record can give....

 

Pity she hasn't got lots of vinyls still available and cassettes.

Little Mix staying very strong on Amazon as are Bruce, Cliff and the other new releases.

 

Sophie Ellis Bextor and McFly would be luckly to go Top 20.

My other vinyl order came luckily with the print this time and it’s outside of the sealed Vinyl..

 

 

Sophie Ellis Bextor and McFly would be luckly to go Top 20.

 

Hmmmm, I think Mcfly should probably go top 5 and Sophie hopefully has a decent chance of top 10.

Mcfly are on Kylies BMG I would expect them to sell very well through website etc

 

Sophie also got vinyls an physicals and has her super stans.

She's getting a LOT of press for this chart record!

Excellent so you got the prints as advertised? Nice?

 

Yes :dance: Seems like most other people have too - I contacted them about one of my orders and they said they were awaiting another batch of signed photos and they will be sent out shortly.

 

She's getting a LOT of press for this chart record!

 

It’s incredible, she’s literally everywhere! Excellent way to ensure the public know about the new release too.

Hi everybody,

 

First of all, congrats with Number 1!! Well deserved!

 

Second, here is a musical version of Disco Symphony - the song what both Kylie and Robbie promised but haven't released yet :(

For musical's adaptation the song has been slightly changed by Guy and Robbie but still can give you a general idea about this track.

 

I'd like to hear this one on Kylie's LP.

Can’t believe it’s been a week already since the frenzy of the Saturday midweek sales flash appeared :lol:

Haha. I know

 

What a week.

 

I am now more relaxed enjoying every sale for her going through and every bit of free promo

 

Sunday Brunch only gets about 550k viewers but it's a nice bit of quiet Sunday promo. Am sure it will just be a zoom call to her but also should get a few video clips.

 

Have to say whenever they show the Infinite Disco Real Groove on TV it looks and sounds so good.

 

Hopefully Bauer Radio stations are working well for her.
