Tonight’s Audio in Distress is an Italo disco special. The heydays of Italo disco range from around 1983 until 1988. While the early artists and acts where influenced by the likes of Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, Giorgio Moroder and disco music and still create an original sound, the later acts sound all alike and mostly like a Stock Aitken and Waterman production. And that, while SAW got their sound amongst others from Italo disco! Anyway, it’s electronic music, with lyrics in broken English and about cheesy subjects. Mind you, these tracks had a major influence on the house scene. I still like it and hope that you’ll enjoy it too.
