Discoholics Anonymous are thrilled to present another free download for your collections: XTOPHER’s magnificent re-edit of Marc Penetas’ slow-cooker “Lady Ganja”
Originally released in 1985 on Benetas’ “Distance” album, XTOPHER has tidied it up, added a lush, deep bottom, and structured it for a modern audience.
This edit was inspired by hearing the original vinyl of this track for the first time in summer 2022 as the sun set in La Torre Ibiza. The chilled restaurant vibes were soon interrupted by a head-nodding clientele singing, “Lady Ganja!” So, a big shout out to whoever that DJ was! The edit was stemmed, split, and replayed in parts, with new drum intros, added thickness, and low-end chugg! Enjoy!
Please check out my BandCamp for more edits!
