The former LCD Soundsystem member Nancy Whang is now half of the Juan Maclean, which means she's largely responsible for In A Dream, your current reigning Album Of The Week. And on a new EP, she's also tapping deep into dance music's past. On The Nancy Whang Casablanca Reworks, Whang teams up with various dance-music producers to cover tracks that were released on Casablanca Records, a classic disco label that also had Kiss and Parliament on its roster. The EP opens with Whang and Audiojack taking on "Like An Eagle," a 1979 disco nugget from Dennis Parker. In the video, we see images of various iconic New York landmarks as they drift out of focus. Check it out below.
