Italo Disco Lost in Space

The spacey super synthy vocoder filled style of Italo Disco is undoubtably my favorite.  This track from 1982 by Marzio Dance is very that.

This first release by Marzio Mugnaioni the resident DJ at Club Xenon in Florence is strange in that it's so slow I don't even hear how it could be danceable.  Sounds cool though, there is no doubting that.

Marzio returned to the genre in many incarnations and on many release but this gem was his first.

Please lord just transport me back one Saturday Night to the Xenon disco in Florence in 1982.  I would live!

Another Adventurous Shep Pettibone Gem ELEANOR

A very hot dance hit in 1987, Eleanor Academia's Adventure still sounds fresh today. It's no wonder Shep Pettibone had the magic touch. It does sound an awful lot like D Train You're the One for Me but you can't go wrong copying that. It was definitely one of the most solid dance record of the entire decade. The little bit of world vocals at the end are also a nice way to take the record out. Bet it sounded hot mixing that and repeating it loads before moving into the next hot number which would probably have been any number of classic early House gems.

So any word on Shep's club out in Asbury Park, New Jersey? I hear he spins most Saturdays.
