One thing most people don't realize is that Disco comes from Soul and Funk and before there was a genre known as "Disco", there was no distinction between Soul/Funk and what became known as Disco. The "Disco" tag didn't exist until like 1975-1977. The music or sound that came to be known as Disco was really the soul/funk sounds that were developing beginning in the late 1960's with certain drumming patterns like the Earl Young 4/4 floor with the hissing hi hat sound for example and lusher orchestrations/strings. Im oversimplifying things but
This is a Disco type drum groove

Funk was more laid back with harder grooves and not so much four on the floor like Disco.
