Disco Not Disco 2 is a compilation album from the Disco Not Disco series released by Strut Records in 2002. The album is a probe to experimental side of disco and punk genres and underground music scene in general. The second volume is more electro and dance oriented and features electro pioneer Alexander Robotnick ("Problèmes D'Amour"), post-punk and dance-rock music groups like Laid Back, Material and The Clash, Can, and Arthur Russell.^[1][3][3]

It was compiled, once again, by a British DJ and music producer Joey Negro.^[1]

Reception

• The Allmusic review by Andy Kellman awarded the album 4 stars stating "Despite all the advances made in dance music in the decades that followed the greatness featured here, the lasting value is undeniable."^[1]
• The Stylus Magazine review by Scott Plagenhoef gave the album B- saying "So bag the preconceptions and get on the floor—embrace these beats without process and listen without prejudice. And while you’re at it, grab the stronger Disco (Not Disco) as well".^[2]
