Italo
Disco
Italo Disco
refers to an entire genre of dance music that evolved mysteriously and
very quickly during the early 80's in Italy and other parts of Europe.
Italo Disco music was and still is considered to be quite futuristic
and spacey in regards to the massive effects created with the first generation
of true synthesizers, drum machines, and vocoders. Twenty-five years later,
Italo Disco music is experiencing a major renaissance in which deejay's
all over the world are spinning the original classics in much delight while others are making brand new music that sounds more like it was made in 1982. Compilations also pay tribute to the masterpieces. But what defines masterpieces? Is it musical charts? Is it standing the test of time? Or is it the songs that have become cherished at one point or another in the last 25 years? You decide! There is no true history of italo disco that replicates how it all evolved, however, we are about to tell you italo disco through our eyes and those of many other fans of the genre!
So.. it's 2007 and deejay's, clubbers, and electro fans of all ages are now looking to hear the original stuff
that started it all. Forget about disco, synth-pop, and new wave - maybe
they were factors in the evolution of modern dance music, but it was the
10,000+ Italo Disco artists who truly fused the arpeggio synth-hooks, electro
beats, and chic 12" cover art for the very first time. It's now clear that
many Italo Disco songs influenced the Chicago house scene, acid house,
techno, and other early forms of dance and trance music. Much of today's
most lush electro music is clearly attributed directly to Italo Disco.
The History
Of Italo Disco
1975-1977
-
Emerging from Val Gardena, Italy, Mr. Giorgio Moroder begins to
experiment on a new toy in the music world: an electronic synthesizer.
He starts to create loops and synth-hooks using basic equipment from Moog
and Korg. "The Chase" and the rest of the score for the 1978 film, Midnight Express made a permanent marking in the ears of young Italians who would later go on to create their own electronic music, eventually to be known as 'Italo Disco'. Just a year or so earlier in 1976, it was the beginning of John Carpenter's illustrious career
as a moviemaker and composer of electronic music using excessive use of
droids and drum machines. The original motion picture soundtrack to "Assault
On Precinct 13" would go on to become a major influence for many Italians
who realized the power of a drum machine, as heard in the opening theme
of the movie. Around the same time, an Italian music group by the name
of Goblin emerges and begins creating electronic-themed soundtracks
for all of Dario Argento's Italian horror films, setting up another
major influence for early Italo Disco artists. Some of the more memorable and early scores were for the movies "Deep Red" and "Suspiria" (1976 and 1978, respectively). Goblin's scores and Argento's style would cause many other Italian movie directors to use electronic elements in their Giallo and horror-styled films - thus starting a new era for electronic music (the first being disco several years earlier). Eventually the dark sound of these scores would fuse with disco music and we'd reach Italo Disco. But first,
1977-78
- Giorgio Moroder's first full LP was released. "From Here To
Eternity", featuring the self-titled first single that became an instant
success, was what started everything! This would go down as a pioneer album
that would forever change electronic music. Less than a year later, "Chase"
was released, becoming Giorgio's biggest hit ever, once again strenghtening
his appeal as a leader in the electronic department. Nearly simultaneously,
Italian producer, Jean-Marc Cerrone releases a series of albums
- the most famous being, "Supernature" and "Love In C Minor".
Simply outstanding work using a synthesizer would make Mr. Cerrone, a native
of France become another major influence for all Italo Disco music to follow.
Soon after Moroder and Cerrone hit the airwaves, the rest was history.
Lucrethia
& The Azoto 14,008 releases the "Dance Skinsation LP" to
help jumpstart the Vedette Records label - leading the way for Italians
to produce disco music. In 1978, La Bionda emerges with one of the
songs many consider to be Italo Disco's very first song: "One For You,
One For Me".
1978-1981
- In
late 1978, Black Devil, a very obscure act at the time from France,
releases the "Disco Club LP", which is now considered one of the
greatest electronic pleasures of the late 70's. Beautiful harmonies working
solely with a synthesizer in real-time recording sessions make this album
still in deman today! "Disco Fizz" by Azoto (working without
the Lucrethia syntax) appeared in 1980, alongside Tantra's
"The Hills Of Katmandu" release. Both artists being Italian and
leaning further away from the traditional disco beat and more towards a
faster drumbeat using a drum machine, would later be known as two more
pioneers of what would become Italo Disco! At the same time, on the newly
formed Discomagic Records label, Sylvi Foster created "Love
Dawn" and "If You Are Master" while Delanua makes a masterpiece
called "Flood" - these songs being considered to this day the first
true Italo Disco songs. Kano begins his long career with songs such
as "I'm Ready" and "Holly Dolly". in 1980, La Bionda would
solidify their position as a major influence of Italo Disco music with
their big hit entitled, "I Wanna Be Your Lover".
1982
- The Italo Disco scene was well under way by the time 1982 rolled
in.
Discomagic Records and Il Discotto Productions had both
surfaced at this point and had started spawning off many sub-labels, each
with their own distinguishable sounds. On Il Discotto, Jo Jo created
the masterpiece track entitled, "Mind Games", which fused R&B,
electro, and disco all into one song, and Gary Low released his
first single, "You Are A Danger" which took a synthesizer and piano
and welded them together into one song. On the other end of the spectrum,
Discomagic was beginning a long catalogue of records. The first big ones
seemed to be "How Many Fill" by Delanua, "The Garden"
and "Robot Is Systematic" by 'Lectric Workers, and the club
smash, "Hookey" by Sylvi Foster. ll Discotto Productions
has a huge hit with "Tequila" by Bo Boss. "I Need Love"
by Capricorn is released and considered a major accomplishment in
electro dance. "Plastic Doll" by Dharma becomes a cult classic
way ahead of its time! On Zanza Records, Klein & M.B.O.
release "Dirty Talk", and
Pink Project debuts with "Disco
Project" a cover version of Pink Floyd's, "Another Brick
In The Wall" becoming two of the biggest chart hits in Europe in all
of 1982. Also released in '82 on Zanza Records was "Droid"
by Mito, a song and artist that has developed quite a following since then.
Kato, who would go on to become one of the most famous Italo artists
ever, debuts with "Chinese Revenge", a very spacey disco song. Bob
Salton's "Starknight" becomes a high energy Italo Disco hit.
"Coda" by Amin Peck starts a long list of hits for this man.
The Twins debut with "Face To Face - Heart To Heart" and
would be back in 1983 with two more big singles (more on them later). The
big accomplishment for electro fused to Italo Disco in 1982 would have
to be "Bad Passion" by Steel Mind. Using male, female, and
robot vocals all in one song, we hear what is more like a prelude to all
future dance music. We won't stress it any further, but this is to be considered
one of the fundamental songs of Italo Disco! Marzio Dance debuts
with some promising hits such as "The Adventure" and the early '83
followup release entitled, "Rap-O-Hush". One of the most respectable
songs of 1982 is "Life With You" by Expansives, a project
by Franco Rago and
Giorgio Farina who also produced "The
Man From Colours" by
Wanexa, all releases by the aforementioned
'Lectric Workers, and also "Batida" by Cariocas, which
hit the market in the end of 1982.
1983 -
The best year for Italo Disco music from a true Italo lover's standpoint
is without a doubt 1983! So many hits, so many memories. To get the ball
rolling, the Mr. Disco Organization (a sub-label of Full Time
Records) releases "Spacer Woman" by Charlie and becomes
an immediate classic and the biggest song on the entire label. The House
Of Music label also makes some waves with several masterpieces. First,
B.W.H.
releases a double single entitled, "Stop" / "Livin' Up",
often considered to be the most well-crafted Italo Disco release ever made!
Next release on the label: "A Dog In The Night" by Mr. Master
becomes another major hit. However, it was the third release on House Of
Music label that set the tone for the perfect song: "Cybernetic Love"
by Casco, a vocoder and synthesizer masterpiece. We're just scratching
the surface with the big hits on the year! "Take A Chance" by Mr.
Flagio features a heavily vocodized male voice and electro beats that
are forever engraved in many Italo lovers heads. Il Discotto was
the home of Doctor's Cat and their debut song, "Feel The Drive".
Also on the same label was the first release by Brand Image entitled,
"Are You Loving?" On the Italian Records label, Gaznevada releases
"I.C. Love Affair" and N.O.I.A. releases "Stranger In A Strange
Land" - two immediate classics. On the Fly Music label, "Shaker
Shake" by Time is released, becoming an unforgettable classic
with amazing synthesizer work that has since been unparalleled. At Discomagic,
it was an absolutely huge year including the infamous song, "I'm Hungry"
by Stopp, which displays one very phat bassline. Also, Samoa
Park debuts with an Italo Disco version of
Mike Oldfield's famous
"Tubular Bells" project. Ryan Paris creates the happy piano-esque
tune called "Dolce Vita" which topped European charts. Tommy
Bow's "Dance Tonight" and Felli's "Diamond In The
Night" were two of Discomagic's big songs of 1983. However, one of
Discomagic's best releases was "Orient Express" by Wish Key.
Gary Low continued to emerge as a leader with his next single, "I
Want You", which has been sampled many times over the years, most recently
by Miss Kittin. Gazebo makes a string of top hits all over
European charts with "Masterpiece", "I Like Chopin", and
"Lunatic". Over at American Disco Records, Scotch
releases "Penguin's Invasion" and P. Lion releases "Happy
Children", two songs which top the European charts and lead to success
on this record label. Also on the American Disco label, Finzy
Kontini releases "Cha Cha Cha", a tropical melody still retaining
the Italo Disco sound. And one more big hit on the label of course: "Hey
D.J. (Give Me A Lot Of Music)" by B. Rose. Camaro's Gang
release "Fuerza Major" and "Ali Shuffle" while Kano returns
to top the charts with a major hit entitled, "Another Life". An
amazing and beautiful song off the amateur Danse Records label is "Come
..r" by Pineapples with Douglas Roop, an American
vocalist. This is one of the most beloved Italo songs ever made. Memory
Records was on fire with releases led by Hipnosis ("Pulstar"
and "Oxygene") and Baby's Gang ("Happy Song"). One
of their best releases however, was "Don't Stop Lovin'" by J.D.
Jaber. "Incantations" by G.A.N.G. is another big Italo
hit, coming off the Discomagic label. "Let's Go Out" by Roberto
Onofri & Dee Jay Program Band is an extremely obscure song that
is now in extreme demand. "Suicidal" and "Anxiety" by Amin
Peck become two of the best Italo songs of 1983, showing how much work
goes into each song - these 8-10 minute tracks use many instruments and
channeled layers, ultimately making Amin Peck still popular today!
"Run Away" by International Music System becomes a well known
songs as a result of some very deep, dark beats. The year was topped off
by a super powerful song called "You ... See" by Helicon
- using male/female combo vocals, which is uncommon for an Italo song.
The
Creatures release "Believe In Yourself" making themselves a
permanent staple in the Italo Disco as a result of this song. The same
thing goes for The Twins and their 2 big songs: "Ballet Dancer"
and "Not The Loving Kind". Righeira released "No Tengo Dinero"
and "Vamos A La Playa", two Italian vocal songs that both topped
all charts in Europe. Other big hits in 1983 included, "Young Man"
by Nite Lite, "Communicate" by Kirlian Camera, "Voice
(In The Night)" by Martinelli, "Hypnotic Tango" by My
Mine, and "Magical Body" by
Los Angeles T.F. In a category
of his own, Den Harrow debuts with "To Meet Me" and "A
Taste Of Love" two very nice productions with someone else actually
lip-synching these songs for the handsome 'Den Harrow' character. Since
Den Harrow was a fake name, the question soon became: "Who is Den
Harrow?" Was it the same person as Fred Ventura, Joe Yellow, or
Albert One? Soon, it was realized that Italo Disco had a whole 'nother
element of mystery created by these sort of scenarios. As the year came
to an end, Decadance released "On And On (Fears Keep On)",
an amazing masterpiece that many deejay's want to have. As 1983 ended,
it was obviously clear that Italo Disco was the biggest genre of music
in Italian history. Many record labels, big and small, were now releasing
hit after hit. Some of the bigger labels began to make waves in Germany,
Netherlands, and throughout the rest of Europe (with England as an exception),
eventually finding their way to the ZYX label in Germany. This record label
was the biggest and baddest label in all of Europe and was known to do
a lot of third-party licensing for the German market (which was absolutely
huge on disco/dance music!) It was in this year that ZYX had enough songs
licensed to their label that one of their producers/deejay's created 2
short megamixes using Italian disco songs. The mix was named, "Italo
Boot Mix Volume 1" and it featured artists such as Mr. Flagio, Time,
Doctor's Cat, Samoa Park, and Brand Image. The mix of course, was a huge
success all over Europe and was the first outreach of pure Italian music
in new markets. Soon after the first "Italo Boot Mix" was released,
everybody in Europe began referring to disco music from Italy as Italo
Disco , which is now what the entire genre is known as. One important
note to make: The Italo Boot Mix series, which had a total of 16 volumes,
2 mixes apiece, only featured songs licensed to the ZYX label and is clearly
not an indicator of the "best Italo Disco" songs - only the best ones that
ZYX got a hold of. Many of the best Italo Disco songs never left Italy
and are not as well known.
1984 -
Fockewulf
190 paves the way with "Gitano" and "Body Heat", two
of the most respected Italo songs ever. The Italian men behind Fockewulf
190 wouldn't stop there - they made one more song using the alius of
Frank
Tavaglione called "Tumidanda" - one of the most sought after
Italo songs ever! The original 12" features both an English and Italian
version, which was very uncommon! Using the voice of Fred Ventura
and the production values on Market Records, the Fockewulf 190
group took one more shot in the Italo scene with "Eagles In The Night"
by Dario Dell'Aere - becoming another majorly sought after release
that almost no DJ can claim he or she owns to this day. Simply put, Fockewulf
190's four productions were all on limited release in 1984 and have
become harder and harder to locate as the years go by - they sell on eBay
for hundreds of dollars each. Speaking of the years going by, Fred Ventura
has
a huge hit with "The Years (Go By)" and it's featured in an Italo
Boot Mix, making it an even bigger hit in Germany. International Music
System, release a major party song called "Dancing Therapy".
Memory
Records big hits of the year are led by Ken Laszlo's,"Hey
Hey Guy" and "Tonight" and by Cyber People's "Void
Vision" and "Polaris". The Peecker Melody label, a sub-label
of Il Discotto provides 3 huge hits in 1984. They are: "Your Fun"
by Modem, "Driving" by Sensitive, and "Running
Straight" by Amin Peck. "I Wish" by Bolero became
a huge hit all over Europe. One of the biggest hits of the year was "Self
Control" by the late Laura Branigan. The song was actually written
by an Italian artist who released his version (the original) under the
alius of RAF (or RAFF in other markets). Both versions topped every single
chart in Europe and at one point both songs held the ..1 and ..2 positions
simultaneously in the German music charts. As fantastic as the Laura Branigan
version is, it lacks the beautiful male vocals and fantastic rap segment
near the end of the song. "Queen Of Discoteque" by Sissy
on the Eyes Records label is an amazing song. Also on the label
is "Future State" by the same-named artist and also "Firelight"
by Ghecko (often mistaken as Checko) - these songs helped
make Eyes Records a top Italo label in 1984. On Ram Productions,
a sub-label of Discomagic, Ram Band releases "Silent Smiles"
and then on the same label, Anthony's Games releases the same exact
song. Same label, a year later, Visions releases "Everybody"
and then soon afterwards, Videovision (on the Ra.Re label)
releases "Anybody" and Video (on the Fly Records label)
releases "Somebody". The man behind all 3 songs that "coincidently"
have similar titles and the same exact synth-hook is Raff Todesco.
All this stuff about the same song being released by two or three different
artists was quite common in the Italo Disco genre. The most famous would
be the song "Souvenir" which was originally released by OMD was
then covered by a handful of Italian artists including Nicky & Nicky
and Saxophone.
By 1984, Italo Disco was already
in its prime with 100's and 100's of new songs arriving each month at the
local record shops throughout Italy and Europe, particularly Netherlands
and Germany, where the genre became an absolute phenomenon. "Clouds" by
Angie is a great female Italo hit. "Magic Carillon" by Rose is another
female vocal classic, often considered to be the best Italo song ever.
Fake debuts with an extremely sexy vintage disco styled song that keeps
many elements of Italo Disco. The song is called "Donna Rouge" and is often
considered to be the perfect song! Let's move on to the big hits of 1984.
"The Years (Go By" by Fred Ventura becomes a lead track on one of the Italo
Boot Mixes and also a top chart hit all over Europe. Il Discotto's big
hit was "Hot Stuff" by Image. Discomagic's big hit was "Play Boy" by Venise
- another amazing female vocal song with a great electro/drum beat combo.
However, the big Italo song of 1984 (from a true fans standpoint) would
be "Catch" by Sun-La-Shan. 'Catch Is Sexy' would become the famous vocals
to this song that almost any Italo fan is able to sing along to. Scotch
released "Disco Band", a major arpeggio hit that became a major hit in
Germany, actually becoming one of the biggest chart success Italo songs
ever! Miko Mission releases two songs in a row, "The World Is You" and
"How Old Are You?" which are immediately entered into the history books
of Italo Disco music! Without a doubt, it was the synthesizer work that
Miko did with these two songs that made them so memorable. Memory Records
is led by Ken Laszlo (e.g. "Hey Hey Guy", "Tonight")
and Cyber People (e.g. "Void Vision", "Polaris"),
1985 -
Fantasy Life releases "Over And Over", considered to be the
rarest Italo Disco vinyl ever. The mp3 is quite easy to locate, but it's
the original 12" record that fetches 600-700 dollars regularly on eBay.
What a DJ would do to have this one!!! What wouldn't a DJ do??? Brand Image
returns to the Italo scene in 1985 with "Love In A Summer Night" helping
jumpstart the infamous Time Records label. Magika also has a nice hit on
Time Records with "I Know Magika". It should be pointed out that around
this time, as Italo Disco became took over the airwaves that suddenly we
begin to see a major saturation of the market - 1000's of releases a year,
eventually peaking in 1984 and 1985 with 5,000 major releases each year
across 100's and 100's of labels. Several things can explain this market
saturation: 1) creating an Italo Disco song was very easy, cheap, and trendy,
especially for the DJ's of that time. Everybody was taking a stab at the
Italo market; 2) many of the biggest producers from the big labels would
start sub-labels and let one major artist head the label and produce literally
hundreds of songs in a very short period of time. Often times, one producer
would make 100's of songs a year, and the same vocalists would appear on
songs across many sub-labels, being the secret vocalist. Rose, Ken Laszlo,
Fred Ventura, Eddy Huntington, Den Harrow, Joe Yellow, and Albert One would
become the major contributors to this rapid movement of new songs being
produced. For example, "Spanis Run" by Jaco is actually the voice of Ken
Laszlo, famous for his smash hit "Hey Hey Guy". Here we are in 2006 still
sorting through productions and trying to figure out who sung and who produced
some releases - it's all quite confusing because the genre was very tightknit
yet so quickly evolving. Anyways - 1985 brough many, many big hits. "Forever
And A Day" by 93rd Superbowl presents some amazing male vocals, Fake returned
with a major smash hit called "Brick" and a b-side called "Another Brick"
- a very fine production indeed! "Dial My Number" by R. Bais. "Baby On
Fire" by Ottomix & P.K. Siegel.
1986 - Italo Disco already past its
peak, begins to decline as new genre's are now surfacing. High Energy music
in Germany, fueled by Modern Talking, Bad Boys Blue, C.C. Catch, and Silent
Circle is a major dance scene that begins to conquer the charts. At the
same time, all the traditional Italo/Euro disco beats begin to sound "old
fashioned" when compared to the likes of the new speedy drum machine beats
on a TR 808 or 909. Basically, this is when Garage House, Acid House, Chicago
House, House, Acid, and any form of the true 130BPM would begin to take
over the dance scene. It was all in the planning stages since 1982 when
Italo Disco surfaced. We knew the beat would speed up and the bassline
would become louder. However, Italo Disco was still not dead! This was
the year it finally touched the soil of America - 2 songs actually became
minor hits in USA, but were simply thrown into the New Wave genre. The
two songs that now have cult status for making it to USA are "Boom Boom
Boom (Let's Go Back To My Room)" by Paul Lekakis and "Tarzan Boy" by Baltimora,
which was released in 1985 but became an American hit in 1986. Just like
any other dance genre, 1 big European hit always touches every country
at least once. With Eurodance it was "Mr. Vain" by Culture Beat. For Italo
Dance, it was "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" by Eiffel 65. For trance, it's Cascada,
for techno, its "Sandstorm", and so forth. The point we are trying to make
is that the entire market has just 1 song of many 1000's shoved in their
face. You hear this one song over and over and only wish for more songs
like it. Little does anybody in USA know that these songs are just a needle
in the haystack. And that's what "Tarzan Boy" is to Italo Disco! It was
around this time that Radiorama became a major player in the Italo scene.
They would get their own label and release a major, major song called "Aliens"
in the end of 1986. Alan Barry, Aleph, Alphatown, and many other Italo
artists start experimenting with a faster BPM. Slowly, but quickly, the
BPM begins to speed up into the 130's, 140's, and so forth. Time Records
becomes the leader in the industry at this point, with A Beat C and Asia
Records following right behind. The Italo Boot mixes are now in full popularity
in Germany and others parts of Europe that weren't able to access all the
Italo releases. Italo Boot Mixes were megamixes from the ZYX label, featuring
10-15 songs per mix, usually split into 2 parts each. They usually featured
the biggest Italo songs of the time and were quite popular in Germany,
where many made the top charts for many weeks.
Soon we plan to tell the full history
of Italo and expand on the current selections. We mustn't forget all the
powerhouse hits in the rest of Europe at this time. Acid House (AKA Italo
House) and Italian Eurodance, as well as Italo Dance are all wonderous
genre's of music we plan to spread the good word about!
