Gino Soccio is Canadian, but thats being a pedant

Always liked this one from Beppe Loda

YouTube - MC1 - Basic (Beppe Loda Remix)

I wouldnt limit yourself just to Italo Disco, if you like the disco dub sound, plenty out there, for instance from 78 :)

YouTube - BLACK DEVIL FOLLOW ME 1978

And some more

YouTube - L.E.B. Harmony - Feeling Love (1978) (Classic Disco Synth)

YouTube - Universal Energy -- Disco Energy

Check out some old WBMX mixes on Deep House Pages for some old house and italo disco mixed together, bridging the gap so to speak :)

Mart was into his Italo too - not sure whether it exists still though there's a shit load of threads dedicated to IDing WBMX tapes which featured a fair few obscure gems.

I've shared this as TOTD a fair few times.

One of the best for sure.

YouTube - Jo-Jo - "Mind Games" (1982)

A Sankeys Soap bar classic about 6 or 7 years ago. In fact most releases on this label.

Here's the last Italo mix I made back in February 2008.

There's loads more in the mixes section plus on our site if you're into this kinda thing.

Enjoy.

I've got given some unreleased / never shared mixes by Beppe Loda when he stayed at my place for the weekend. He said I could share them which I will when I get time. I actually forgot till I read this post. :D

He showed me some MC1 stuff that he'd wrote on the plane. Actually real music. The synths and stuff. I can't pretend to understand what he showed me though I guess it would eventually sound the bomb.

Probably one of my fave tracks.

YouTube - 'Lectric Workers - Robot Is Systematic (1982)

If you ever get the chance to see I-F play then don't fuck about and just go.

I first saw him in the Fat Cat basement on Deansgate years ago and he blew me away. Amazing record selection.

Some of his mixes are here. Go fill up.

RobotDJ.net

Start with Mixtape 86.

And when you're done go and listen to Loud for an education in all things disco.

RobotDJ.net

Fack knows what half of those records are.

Not a bad mix on that site.
