Show 687 – Italo Disco – Part Two

Clutch your Campari & start your Ferrari, cos on Neon Nights, we’re diving deep into the heaving bosom of Italo Disco—the genre that made Europe dance and gave synths their sexy swagger. Hosted & curated by John von Ahlen / Parralox & Costa Lakoumentas, we show you that tonight, our future is retro! Born in Italy in the late ’70s, Italo fused hypnotic basslines, shimmering synths, and vocals dripping with drama. Think futuristic fantasies, summer soundtracks, and some poor attempts at English. But let’s get serious cos Italo disco isn’t just retro—it’s the blueprint for modern disco and house. It’s camp, chic, and it’s timeless. So grab your shades, hit the dance floor, and let’s celebrate the sound that still makes hearts race.
