Swap your panino for a freshly baked baguette mix full of appetizing titbits from la grande nation 🎹

We all love Italo for the quirky, raffish and sometimes rather obscure tidbits. I tried to compile some favorite, yet still underplayed tunes, that deserve to receive more recognition. Of course, YOU might recognize some tracks and even not deem them to be scarce or unheard, but try to relax and revel in the sonic spaghetti hyperspace 🛸

Italo Obscuro Vinyl Mix Vol I

𝙂𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙖𝙡𝙤 🍺🌭 𝙑𝙞𝙣𝙮𝙡 𝙈𝙞𝙭

After my baguette French Italo effort, the creation of a Gertalo pendant was kind of a no-brainer. So here is my mix of German synthetic 80s italoish hits, with some oddballs thrown in for good measure. The whole thing is of course drifting towards NDW with schmalzy escapades, which should not diminish your listening pleasure if you can cope with some cheesy 80s tropes and cringy lyrics. 
Naturally, you will get the obligatory Autobahn and Lederhosen, but furthermore hurricanes of blue diamonds, time machines, little wizards, voodoo men, VHS obsession, japanese santas, humans made of glass, and of course robots 🤖 
Los geht's!

For real zealots of 80s music, it is impossible to get around the phenomenon that is City Pop. Born during the bubble economy years of Japan, it used to be the soundtrack of insouciant and carefree times. The unique blend of 80s Synth, Jazz Fusion, Avantgarde, Boogie and Funk still conveys this special feeling. Yet at the same time, the inherent Japanese notion of impermanence always shines through the arrangements, invoking a pervasive undercurrent of melancholy. As if the inevitable bursting of the bubble had already been anticipated, a certain bittersweetness is perceivable in every note. Timeless might be an adequate description for the genre, as City Pop still feels fresh and innovative today.

To lift the spirits during this abstinent summer season, I recorded my second effort in the series Italo Obscuro. As in the first edition, this mix comprises a personal journey through the genre most dear to my heart, which still seems to be an inexhaustible cornucopia of musical treasures. As always a lil disclaimer ahead, since the title is to be taken with a grain of salt. If you are already familiar with the genre, you will possibly know some of the tracks and not deem them to be super scarce. Hope you will enjoy in any case!

In this mix, I tried to blend two genres that share the same disco roots and arguably a lot of musical tropes. In many cases, the borders are blurred and it is hard to pin down whether we're dealing with spaghetti disco or its eclectic cousin from the north - Canadian maple NRG stompers 🍁 
Obviously the majority of tracks feature higher bpms, but don't expect TikTok-style over the top speed. Oddly enough, I noticed that many of the songs in this mix tending towards Hi-NRG are conveying a certain notion of bittersweetness or melancholy, contradicting the cliché of the happy-go-lucky mass produced tracks of this genre from the later 80s. Herein probably lies a compelling connective tissue between Italo and Hi-NRG, but in any case, pizza and poutine go together surprisingly well.

More than a quick peek over the pond was the aim of this mix, as I was trying to blend genre bending US-Freestyle with 80s Electro from all over the globe and some Italo. The result is an hour of synthetic tunes mashed up with R'nB rooted US-smashers, proving that pizza and coke is and shall remain a match made in discomatic heaven.
