Alba

Alba - Only Music Survives (Mix 1) (1985)

IMO the later singles are more conventional and far less interesting, maybe the reason is simply that the Nicolosi brothers were no more involved in the creative process.

Shiva Goes Trance

This is an incredible tune and maybe one of the very first works of both artists (and their one and only collaboration known to date). It’s just too bad that this genre evolved into what we know today.

Gat Decor

If you were a teen or a twentysomething in the early nineties then you obviously remember this track. One-hit-wonder though, too bad.

IMHO, only the Naked Mix deserves the mention but it is a true old school classic.

Le Messager

Not disco at all, not even electronic, but nonetheless worth listening. The OST of Joseph Losey’s The Go-Between by Michel Legrand.

Michel Legrand - Theme From “Le Messager” (1972)

Interesting trivia, the main theme from the French TV documentaries Faites Entrer L’Accusé is directly inspired by this piece of work. The piano melody from the intro is almost identical (section not included in the preview).
