Description:
On today’s electro-obsessed dancefloors, original Italo disco is now a big deal, a regular fixture with DJs and dancers seduced by the the epic, spacey energy, the brash synths and heavy percussion breaks leaping from the grooves. Acts as diverse as METRO AREA, HOT CHIP, PET SHOP BOYS and RICARDO VILLALOBOS owe much to late ‘70s and early ‘80s
Italian music. Italo-disco has boasted a major role in dance music heritage since it first surfaced. The music’s roots can be traced back to early MORODER & CERRONE.

‘Italo Disco’ brings together original classics and rarities by some of the leading producers of the time from CLAUDIO SIMONETTI and GIANCARLO MEO (aka KASSO and EASY GOING) to PETER MICIONI and Balearic favourite, TULLIO DE PISCOPO. Many tracks appear on CD here for the first time and the album features several exclusive re-edits by compiler STEVIE KOTEY, member of DJ / producer team CHICKEN LIPS and label boss of BEAR ENTERTAINMENT. The album is packaged in a 4-panel card digipak. Booklet features rare photos, original sleeve artwork and extended notes by BILL BREWSTER, author of ‘Last Night A DJ Saved My Life’.
