An italo dark disco god. Fantastic interview filmed at NYC/Brooklyn's own Turntable Labs.

Then the French said, "Let there be dark disco." And it was really, really good. 

Right?! 1975. Whoa.

As a music genealogist, moments where new musical (sub)genres are born are pretty much the stuff of dreams.

Within this span of 84 seconds, from an offbeat library (ie music snippets) album "The Strange World of Bernard Fevre," foundations are laid for the deepest, darkest, most esoteric disco album ever made, Black Devil's"Disco Club" in 1978.

In case you were wondering, Mr. Flagio is a hairy-chested robot from space. This song has everything one could ever ask of an Italo track. It is a perfect mix of robo space disco, electro and synth pop with a killer bass line, rock solid vocoder and a fantastic breakdown. An essential part of any Italo collection.

I can actually feel my skin getting hot under the southern Italian sun. This song is a warm italo breeze on a cool February day. Slow burning and soulful. This particular clip features the ORIGINAL two track reel-to-reel master, so the sound quality is pristine.

Close your eyes. Picture Rusty Griswold at a topless disco in National Lampoon's European Vacation (1985). Do you hear that song playing in the background? How awesome is it??!! Well, this was the track.

Alexander Robotnick, aka Maurizio Dami, rewrote Italo by attaching a ground wire to Electro and letting the current rip. He also set the bar for performance names. This fellow is a legend who still exercises his servos and gives one hell of a live performance.
