A dynamic sound that embodies the momentum of disco's golden age.
Double Cider by Ritchie Family, a dance floor-friendly production that combines disco rhythms with lush strings.
Both sides feature gorgeous arrangements, and the blend of strings and horns creates a rich impression. The beat is strong, and the 4/4 rhythm consistently tightens the song. The female vocal trio's harmonies are rich, and the call-and-response in the chorus adds momentum to the rhythm. On side B, a more funk-oriented bass line stands out, adding to the driving force of the groove. The recording is clear, with each instrument positioned precisely, faithfully recreating the sound image of disco's heyday. There's a consistent sense of exhilaration throughout the sound, and the high level of production is striking. As an energetic and stylish disco number, this work is emblematic of the atmosphere of the era.
