Fiero – Modus Operandi EP [GD021]

To some of you, Fiero will need no introduction, the Colombian via New York analog synth wizard has released some of the most highly sought after proper disco music this side of 1978. Here is his first time on Giallo Disco, with his darkest compositions yet. Hot flanged pads, detuned basslines, 606 madness, space choirs, it’s all here. Imagine if Goblin and / or Stefano Mainetti did a New Beat tribute to Carpenter and you’d be getting warm. You’ve fallen, it’s rising from the swamp, and you can’t get away.

Mori Ra – The Brasserie Heroique Edits Part 3 [BH035]

Four deejay wmds beaming in from Osaka: weird, unsettling disco-funk, guaranteed to rock the house. Kanwaza crosses ethnic roots and disco; Cross Calf Dance jacks up the quirkiness; Stormy Weather and Water lock down the after-hours crew.

Marcello Giombini – Computer Disco [MGLP101]

GIOMBINI, Marcello - Computer Disco

One of the greatest euro synthi-disco album of early 80’s finally reprint by Mondo Groove Records. Original released in 1982, “Computer Disco” is the most Kraftwerk-ian italian production. Marcello Giombini was a pioneer of early sequencers and in this cult LP produced cheesey cosmic synth pop a little bit italo disco oriented. Every fan of 70/80’s synthesizer music and electronic djs should put in his collection if they not already possess the extremely rare original edition.

Casionova – Subspace Transmission 2 [MW011]

Continuing where ‘Subspace Transmission 1’ left off Casionova brings another triple-tracker 12″ of synth jams and dancefloor grooves ranging from the merciless bass-driven Mecha-disco assault of ‘Droids Night Out’ to the epic, booming and deep bass box-jam ‘Magic Touch’ and with the galloping, mystical and hypnotic ‘Necromancer’s Spell’ sandwiched in between – for those who like their electro-disco raw and relentless.

Ali Renault – Altro Mondo [BAP066]

Ali Renault lands on Bordello A Parigi with a four tracker of leftfield electro pop. ‘Altro Mondo’ screams out of the traps, bulbous bass lines elbow sweetened chords and snapping beats. ‘Fume’ grows from the same soil. Analogue warmth is brushed, even bruised, by the crack and whip of rhythms; a touch of EBM bitterness blended with Italo hope. Nowhere is this more evident than in…’Nowhere’, a buckled dancefloor romp with the king of Milano, Fred Ventura, offering vocals. Uabos maintains the tension for the finale, uplifting house currents coursing through his remix of ‘Lenticular’.

Daddy Long Legs – Intergalactic Lover [CPU00100111]

Intergalactic Lover is the first release on CPU’s new 7″ vinyl series and is the debut single from Daddy Long Legs aka Tom Parker, one half of City Guys and all round ‘FM’ synthesis maestro extraordinaire. Side A’s ‘Intergalactic Lover’ is new wave Kraftwerkian electro funk, with added vocal not too dissimilar to the great Edwyn Collins circa Orange Juice. Side B’s ‘The Club’ could be mistaken for a 1980’s breakdance anthem, poised with casio orchestral stabs, scribble scratches and electro bass designed for the dancefloor, more specifically poppin’ and lockin’.
