Andy Van has made a career-spanning impact on dance music, mixing huge mainstream success whilst maintaining his underground credibility. As one-half of Madison Avenue, he delivered one of the biggest hits of the era with: ‘Don’t Call Me Baby.’ The track reached #1 in the UK and on the U.S Billboard Dance chart and topped the charts in Australia with the follow-up: ‘Who the Hell Are You.’ Andy co-founded the Vicious Recordings label (with John Course), which issued the first releases from: AVICII and Carl Cox, plus smash hits such as Cabin Crew’s ‘Star2Fall’.
Now Andy Van channels his love of timeless Disco, with some modernist house influences, for his new project: Super Disco Club, a partnership with Singer / Songwriter Cassie Van. The debut release ‘We Are One’ builds on the attention that Super Disco Club first gained in 2019 when they delivered a remix of Madison Avenue’s: ‘Don’t Call Me Baby’ to commemorate the original track’s twentieth anniversary. It is the kind of instantly attention-grabbing anthem that’s sure to electrify packed clubs and festival fields in the future. With a touch of French house and elements of nu-disco, its reverberating bass and shuffling beats, provide the tightly-woven rhythm that underpins its instantly memorably synth hook.
“We are super excited to be finally releasing our Super Disco Club tracks. It’s been over 2 years of development, recording and then lockdowns. We have a whole bunch of Disco vibed tracks ready to unleash, so let’s go!” – Andy Van.
Expect their trademark House & Disco sound, punctuated with a prominent synth hook that instantly identifies the tune. No strangers to chart action and writing hit songs, this masterful duo step up with a tune that will be seeing a lot of Dance-Floor & Radio action.
The ‘We Are One’ release is complemented by two remixes from Sgt Slick and Birdee, which further connects with the surging disco renaissance. Sgt Slick’s remix comes after the Melbourne-based artist topped the ARIA Club Chart last year with: ‘Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!’ Meanwhile, Birdee’s reworking reiterates his reputation as a producer’s producer, following support for his tracks from the likes of: Purple Disco Machine, Claptone, Pete Tong, Horse Meat Disco and Groove Armada.
‘We Are One’ introduces Super Disco Club in style, as the duo introduce their all-inclusive and unadulterated love of Disco. Prepare for an enduring run of killer tracks to follow.

Connecting with Cassie Van, the duo has created a namesake that is aptly revered by producers, labels and clubbers aligned, with their vision for music that moves. Cassie is considered a natural talent that has been on the stage since an early age, performing from 4 years of age. She has featured at some of the best clubs and festivals in recent years across Europe, Asia, UK, Canada, America and also her homeland, Australia. Cassie’s first love of Disco began whilst listening to her Mother’s personal vinyl collection. Picking out a selection of impressionable songs from: Boney M and the Bee Gees, she was hooked by the song writing, sound and energy of these pivotal records. Cassie actually started her singing career in an all-girl band covering trademark Disco classics, which still influences her musical tastes today.
It was during her days as a professional dancer touring for the hugely successful ‘Madison Avenue,’ that she first met Andy Van and through their combined passion for Dance music, they initiated a flux of studio sessions, co-creating the Electro inspired House moniker: ‘Vandalism.’ Her first song under this namesake was: ‘Never Say Never’ which became a worldwide hit and set forth her career as a professional song writer, further penning Vandalism songs: ‘She Got It,’ ‘Smash Disco,’ ‘Throw Your Hands Up,’ ‘Rockin’ & ‘Vegas,’ which all heavily shook the scene. Their final release, a cover of the club staple ‘Shiny Disco Balls’ went directly to #1 on the Club Charts and provided an insight into future collaborations with Andy.
