Oppenheimer Analysis - The Devil’s Dancers (2005)

It is said to be first written in 1982 but I believe it is just an elaborate hoax (or maybe some kind of a clever marketing trick ;)). Anyway, it is as good as it gets.

This track comes from the Clone Classic Cuts CD.

Sparks - Tryouts For The Human Race (1979)

Once again, Moroder pushing the knobs and steering the wheels of his room-sized synthesizers. (Nah, they were definitely much smaller of course.)

Child choir + piano: Justice initiated this trend in electronic music but let’s face it, it sounds amazingly good.
I didn’t like the original version, I love the remix.

Pnau - Baby (Breakbot Remix) (2008)

Tracks like Galactica (and the short guitar riff ala Robot Rock) and In The Black Hole (with its Kano-like sound) put an instant smile on my face…
I’m sure you will appreciate the wicked twists and turns on Galaxy: an album from the Rockets, and released in 1980.

Rockets - Galactica
Rockets - Mecanic Bionic
Rockets - Synthetic Man
Rockets - One More Mission
Rockets - Universal Band
Rockets - Prophecy
Rockets - In The Black Hole
Rockets - In The Galaxy
Rockets - Medley

Diva - No More In Love (Vocal) (1985)

I know Kundalini is not that keen on this kind of italo stuff but I also know that he needs to put some cheese on his pastas ;)
Anyway, I’ve selected it because I dig the melodic patterns (typical of that era) and maybe this thick accent, additionally.

Sylvester - I Need Somebody To Love Tonight (1979)

One of the first (and successful) collaborations between Patrick Cowley and Sylvester.

Vance And Suzzanne - I Can’t Get Along Without You (1980)

IMO the best track from The Best Disco In Town and what a tune! Check out the bassline.

Jo Bisso - The Mistery With Me (1978)

Primadonna - Physical (1990)
(Listen to the full track)

Stefania Dal Pino met the producer Giorgio Dolce and formed Primadonna in the mid 80’s. They released a few singles and “Physical” is the last one.

A modern italo sound with her sweet and sometime rocky voice. It might sounds cheasy for some but for me it’s charming (can’t explain).
