Carlo Onda's Romantic Disco

Autumn 2017 I suddenly got manic. I went to a secondhandstore, heilsarmee, and there was a vinyl sale. I looked through the boxes and recognized that some italo disco lover must have died or something. I thought the record collection is speaking to me. I spent an hour or so looking for all that matching vinyl. It was pretty magic, I admit. So it was my mission to get this music back in front of people and I started djing a bit. The effect everytime was pretty much the same. Young and old people put a smile on and started dancing. I wondered why it always worked so good but I have my theory. Young folks see the roots of what they are served today and the old just forget that they aren't the youngest anymore. It was at the same time that I started Carlo Onda, frankly inspired by the music you hear here. Then after mania comes rain and as far as I remember, I haven't been djing since. Though I really think I should give it another try someday.

Anyways, every now and then, someone asks me
to do a mix and I always refuse. But yesterday I said yes, because somehow the project of Radioblog Tirana really appeals to me.

Each Thursday, Machine Club congregates at Club Tee Gee in Atwater Village, with its 5 rotating residents – Robert Lane, Stacy Christine, Gina Kuhn, Remy Marc, and Silent Servant – spinning new wave, italo, cold wave, post punk, mutant disco, new beat, EBM, industrial, NDW, and much much more.

Usually, two of the residents split the evening – occasionally with guest deejays invited to spice it up – but sometimes we just need the whole night to stretch out and express ourselves: a Solo Mission.

For our first Solo Mission, resident and Rubycon Records honcho, Robert Lane, drops 12" rarities and cherished favorites under the giant disco ball. Here's the closing two hours of the night for your enjoyment, and for our first published mix in 2 years of Machine Clubs nights. You're welcome.

SPIROS: A Mix Song For You

Our very favorite,  Swedish label Höga Nord surprises us once again with this mini-LP, from brand new German/Israeli project, ‘Rudolf Abramov’ (aka Jalal Halal & Moritz Rudolf). This record is an unpredictable road-trip built on loud EBM drums, chemical machine funk grooves, heavy krautrock roots, and a singular use of psychedelic instruments and rhythms. This rich storm of genres and influences makes a mysteriously brilliant record, and we suggest to keep a close look to that promising project in the future. 
Vinyl & Digital out on April 26th

Italo Disco May 2013 Mix

*Note that in September 2024, the project name for this album (i.e. the artist) was changed to Cosmic Angst.

My first album, re-released on vinyl in 2017 thanks to Per Musica Ad Astra.

"A real treat for any fans of Tangerine Dream, Innovative Communication or Mike Oldfield, PALADIN brings us the contemporary sound of visionary uk synth-prog music via Berlin-based label Per Musica Ad Astra on his album ‘Unknown Zones’. Epic tracks dominate the record in true 1970s tradition, containing suites of music that elevate, transcend and transport the listener in his mind’s eye to faraway exotic realms of musical dreamscapes hitherto unimagined."

Programmed & performed at the Cally Cosmic Cabin 2012-2013 for Mild Peril Recordings.
