Donna Summer. The Village People. The Bee Gees. Perhaps these and others of their genre can provide you with a soundtrack for today as we borrow our Off-script topic from New Zealand, where they celebrate National Disco Day every July 2. Disco, which reached peak popularity during the 1970s, features repetitive vocals and catchy, pulsing beats from drum sets, synthesizers, bass guitars, etc. For those who are looking for a deep dive into disco, PBS and the BBC have teamed up on a joint series that conveniently begins airing today to break down its history. Those simply looking for a roundup of songs to boogie away to can check out this one offered by iHeart.
