Italorator is a bi-monthly journey into the brighter side of the 80’s on Operator radio. I will play mainly classics I deeply love, but there will be also room for contemporary productions in the same spirit.

Italorator w/ Marsman [Episode 14]

Some words by Belaria:

"This mix explores the rich tapestry of women's voices across generations, weaving together melodies that resonate with both the past and the present. Drawing inspiration from the iconic singers of the 70s/80s such as Judie Tzuke, D.Dee Jackson, and Tiziana Rivale, as well as contemporary artists like Void Vision, Zanias, and Jolisa, this mix is a tribute to their talent and influence on my music tastes. Throughout this hour, you'll hear a fusion of contemporary tracks, beloved classics, and innovative remixes. Each song is carefully curated to blend the nostalgia of yesteryear with the freshness of today's music scene, creating a dynamic journey through sound and time."

Italorator w/ Marsman [Episode 15]

Some words by Paty:

‘Italorator is definitely one of my favorite shows right now. It’s a great honour to record this mix with some of what I consider classics, whether they are older or newer productions. 

I love classics, and it’s rare to find a space where you feel 100% comfortable to dive in and present your favorites from that time. There’s always a hidden gem here and there, and for me, Italorator is the new atlas for discovering them. Many thanks to Marsman and Operator for creating this space, which is so necessary to keep the movement alive and to give us the opportunity to share and learn with every new show. 

I dedicate this mix to my mom - she always loved new wave, Italo, and classic ‘80s songs. I remember when I was little, she would always put on those video cassette/DVD compilations, and I was hypnotized watching all the beautiful (and dramatic) video clips, always wanting to go back in time to live that era. I guess she has no idea how much influence this had on what I do. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy it.’

Italorator w/ Marsman [Episode 16]

Some words by Starborough:

"It was a big pleasure for me to play at Italorator! Like Marsman, I got hooked on italo and disco because of I-F's Cybernetic Broadcasting Station, that later turned into IntergalacticFM. Its influence on my musical taste can't be overstated. After being an avid listener, programming shows and doing a lot of work behind the scenes, I started making monthly deejay mixes for IFM some three years ago and haven't stopped since. For my Italorator mix I decided to focus on mid 80s italo songs that are heavy on synth action and drama. One to sing along to with clenched fists. I hope you enjoy listining as much as I liked mixing it up. Playing disco for the dancer, all ready for the sound!"

Some words by Melanie:

When Marsman invited me for this mix, I knew it would be the perfect opportunity to play some classics and singalong tracks (something we both love to drop). New Order, ABBA, and many more amazing tracks that will definitely get stuck in your head! I also dedicate this mix to my father, who introduced me to 80s, new wave and all possible kinds of music from the moment I was born.

Italorator w/ Marsman [Episode 18]

Some words by Xpresso Martina:

"First of all thank you again for the invite, I’m super happy to be on italorator! It’s probably my favourite mix series at the moment.

Initially I tried to exclusively pick tacks that hadn't been featured on italorator before but I certainly missed some. In the end I went for a selection that best reflects my personal taste and appreciation for the genre, including some of my all time favorites and new found gems. Besides Italo I ventured into adjacent genres like early acid house and new beat but kept the overall vibe seductive and sleazy, just how I like it. I have been waiting for a chance to open a set with Einzelhaft by Falco (from one of the best albums ever made, no doubt) and this seemed like a worthy occasion."
