GIORGIO (PART 1)

On Friday September 21, GIORGIO MORODER will be appearing at Neon in Montreal! To celebrate that important event we present a three part series spotlighting the music and productions of GIORGIO. We begin here with some of his music and productions from 1966 to 1974! Certain sources have suggested that the colossal success and influence of "Love To Love You Baby" featuring DONNA SUMMER in 1975 was something of a fluke or a matter of luck. It was actually the work of masters. The truth is that long before GIORGIO MORDER and PETE BELLOTE recorded it GIORGIO had already produced and recorded a wealth of amazing music with MICHAEL HOLM, RICKY SHANE and a list of other remarkable artists. Many of those recordings had already been heard and consumed in discos throughout the world. This show gives you a sample:

Giorgio Moroder real name Jovani Moroder... Changed the face of Disco Music I dont think techno house or trance would exist or would of been way different if his fame and popularity would not have taken place... He is the godfather of electronic disco and beyond. Cheers T.

I was told by an old 'retired' dj from the sixties that people who went clubbing back then; for the most part, found newer disco music to be artificial and monotonous. I now know a few people that partied with me in the 1970's and early 1980's who say the very same thing about House Music or Techno. It seems to be continuing year after year!
