Mastermind (4) - Hustle Bus Stop

Year Released: 1975
Genre: Disco / Funk

Description:
Released on Polydor Records, “Hustle Bus Stop” by Mastermind captures the mid-’70s explosion of dancefloor orchestral funk, combining the dance-craze pulse of “The Hustle” with the call-and-response energy of the Bus Stop line dance. Layered strings, syncopated congas, and a buoyant bassline make it a classic example of the post-Motown, pre-disco hybrid sound that dominated club circuits in 1975.

“Hustle Bus Stop” became a DJ favorite in New York and London disco scenes, resurfacing in rare-groove sets during the 1990s. Its clean rhythm structure and orchestrated funk style anticipate the modern nu-disco revival led by producers such as Daft Punk
