Italodisco is super underrated- it has a lot of the upbeat analog electronic dance music that many of the *waves try to recreate; and did it 40ish years ago. Always felt it was more poppy and fun than the Eurobeat songs that came afterwards like those featured in the anime series Initial D.


I'm definitely in love with ItaloDisco. I watched it from its humble start, to this day. The emphasis has always been on quality

Italo house [1989-1993] + Eurobeat[British, Italian] + J-Euro + Classic Italodance (1992-1998) + Hyper-Techno

are derivatives of huge importance in the history of EDM and worth to listen filirting many times with their origins.

Catch: I consider Spacesynth to be ItaloDisco and the 1988-1993 Italo-energy movement to also be ItaloDisco

It is not only underrated. It is the King of the Dance Floor since 1978 with disco being the Queen.

Also it is the behind all the music revolutions since then in Europe.

And definitely is behind modern SynthWave and Vaporwave.
