117 BPM Review: Disconnection's 1982 debut single, Bali Ha'i, has always been one of post-punk disco's most bizarre and brilliant moments. For starters, it's a cover of a Rodgers & Hammerstein number originally featured in South Pacific, re-cast as an acid-fried blur of rubbery punk-funk bass, liquid synthesizers, razor-sharp violin lines and tongue-in-cheek female versions. This tidy Optimo Music includes all of the tracks from the original, sought-after 12", including the contrasting 'US' and 'UK' disco mixes (for the record, it's the slightly more electronic and dub-wise UK version that you should head for). Bonus cut "Aaaah", a thoroughly bonkers and out-there fusion of freestyle female vocals, odd orchestration and strange noises, is worth a listen for its' sheer insanity.
