About Me

Disco Computer is Monika Ciura & Tony Irvine, two 80's Dance Music fans who've decided to wear their heart on their sleeve & present the club music they love so much.Monika is a Vocalist, as well as a session singer & Vocal Teacher & Tony is a Synth player and Radio presenter with 3 PBS FM here in Melbourne. Plus in these days of often overhyped VST plug ins, it's refreshing to see a setup actually FROM the 80's (including an Ensoniq SQ80 synth/sequencer & EPS 16 sampler, a Kawaii R-100 Drum Machine as well as a Roland Juno 60 analog synthesizer older than his daughter), we're talking 80's with an authentic touch!!!Catch them soon at a Venue near you...
