I think it is. It was included on a disco compilation CD that I had in the early 90s.

May I enquire as to what else was on this so-called disco compilation?

It's a disco of a sort, but it's lost any of its 'blackness' or euro-dancefloor elan.

It's just over-egged product.

Part of the long, wheezing death rattle of disco that carried on for another year or so.

Thinking about it, it's actually surrounded by some rather questionable "disco" tracks. hmm

I find the fact they've used fractals - a quintessential motif of the '90s rave scene - to decorate the cover more jarring.

Perhaps they were trying to tempt younger CD buyers? hmm

Well, I think it's more electro-pop. Colbert

Apart from the strings bit, that is disco. shifty

And Todd in the Shadows is often wrong. yes
