This week, Aaron is over the moon about Italian electronic music pioneer Giovanni Giorgio Moroder! Dubbed “the Father of Disco”, Moroder was hugely influential in the 70s, when his work with synthesizers attracted the attention of big deals like David Bowie and Donna Summer, who he later worked with in the super cool song “I Feel Love”.
His discography is wild, including big names like Blondie, Lady Gaga, and Kylie Minogue, lesser-known but important artists like Philip Oakey, and lots of film soundtracks like “Midnight Express”, “American Gigolo”, and “Top Gun”(!!!!).
NOTES / DON’T @ US:
- The fantastic background music that sounds like a funky Mega-Man soundtrack is "Disco Con Tutti" by Kevin MacLeod. You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vnD9r0Ef34
