Since Anfrando Maiola - KOTO is not with us anymore, I felt the need to share with you some of details about his life...
Once upon a time, in the vibrant world of Italo Disco, there lived a talented musician named Anfrando Maiola, also known as Koto. Anfrando's music had the power to touch the hearts of thousands, and his melodies became the soundtrack to joyous moments and unforgettable memories. Today, as I bring you the story of Anfrando's life, let us embark on a journey filled with warmth and inspiration.

Anfrando Maiola, known by his stage name Koto, was a musical genius whose instrumental Italo disco compositions captured the hearts of millions. Born on February 7, 1954, in Parma, Italy, his passion for music started at a young age. With a focus on instrumental pieces, Koto's songs showcased his mastery of the synthesizer, creating a unique blend of melodies that resonated deeply with his listeners. It was during the magical era of the 1980s that Anfrando's musical genius truly shone, as he became a beacon of light in the Italo Disco scene.
Beyond the realm of music, Anfrando shared a glimpse into his personal life. He revealed that he was happily married to Martina, a German, and although they did not have children, they found joy and companionship in the company of their beloved dog, Jessi. These personal details offered a glimpse into the life of a man whose passion for music was beautifully interwoven with love and warmth.

Anfrando explained that he considered voices to be secondary to the music itself. He believed that instrumental tracks allowed the listener to connect with the melodies on a more personal level. Starting his musical journey as a drummer and later learning piano and synths, Anfrando's talent evolved over the years, leading him to create records that would leave an indelible mark on the music industry.
The name "Koto" was taken from the name of one sound of a keyboard synthesizer. Fascinated by the unique and enchanting quality of the KOTO sound, Anfrando adopted it as his artistic identity. His iconic track "Jabdah" featured a captivating voice, but it wasn't his own. The voice was recorded in the studio by a speaker and then embellished with effects to create a mesmerizing auditory experience.

With an impressive array of instruments, including the TR 808-BASS LINE-SEQUENCER MC 500 ROLAND, OBERHEIM-KORG LAMBDA, and lately VIRUS-NORDLEAD-SUPERNOVA, Anfrando's studio became a sanctuary for his creative process.
Collaborations with other artists were relatively rare for Anfrando. He mainly focused on re-making songs, such as Vangelis' "Pulstar '83," which was published with Hipnosis. Anfrando's arrangements breathed new life into these tracks, ensuring their continued appreciation by audiences.
When asked about his favorite Italo songs , Anfrando expressed a fondness for songs like "Self Control" and "Dolce Vita."
Among Anfrando's impressive repertoire, "Visitors" stood out as a masterpiece that resonated deeply with audiences worldwide. When questioned about his favorite songs, he expressed a strong affinity for "Visitors" due to its immense popularity and undeniable catchiness.

The process of creating a successful song, according to Anfrando, varied in time and creative energy. Some days were more fruitful than others, but he believed that a truly exceptional idea struck him immediately, even though it didn't guarantee success.
In the unpredictable world of music, there was no formula for creating a successful song. Anfrando acknowledged that the industry often resembled a lottery, with some artists achieving widespread recognition while others struggled.
Amidst one stormy day, Anfrando made a heartfelt decision. Filled with determination, he declared, "STOP... KOTO IS STILL ALIVE!" His passion burned brightly, igniting a creative fire within him. Collaborating with the talented individuals at TMMC, including Beppe Barilli, Alex Nocera, Gigi Montanini, and their remarkable team, Anfrando set forth to breathe new life into the beloved Koto project.

Anfrando recognized the importance of honoring Italo Disco's distinctive sound. He understood the challenges faced by artists attempting to recreate the nostalgic magic of the past with modern technology. Yet, despite the difficulties, he remained committed to infusing his music with the essence of Italo Disco. Anfrando's determination to strike a balance between creativity, commercial viability, and technological advancements showcased his unwavering love for the genre and his desire to create music that resonated with his devoted audience.
In the realm of today's disco scene, Anfrando admitted that he hadn't had much time to explore the current landscape. His focus was primarily on the "KOTO STILL ALIVE" project, pouring his heart and soul into its realization. His unwavering dedication to his craft was evident, and his commitment to bringing the joy of Italo Disco to his loyal fans remained steadfast.

As he had reached the end of his life journey, I must express my heartfelt gratitude to Anfrando Maiola, also known as Koto, for gracing us with his presence and sharing his extraordinary story.

Into Movies > Documentary added movie about Disco music in Europe named The Untold Story Of Euro Disco (2017).
Here is the info:
"Although born in the US in the early '70s, it was in Europe where disco music developed in a feverish way. It took shape of pure, enjoyable and intoxicating music that traveled from Germany, France, and Italy to elsewhere in the world. A new figure becomes the soul of the genre - the engineering producers and their synthesizer. They were the real composers and designers of unforgettable hits. In an exciting reviving one-off, the audience will get an overview of the context, the visionaries and the artists who made Euro disco eternal, such as Giorgio Moroder, Donna Summer and ABBA."

More technical improvement on this site! I always had an idea to put all of songs into one player and now we on the way to do it! So far you can click mp3 links on pages: MP3 Samples > HTML5 Player & download, Top 20 and Identify and you'll be able to listen to them by the player on the bottom of this site. Also all of mp3s from various pages are included in player's playlist so it's another way to run them. Eventually all of music will be played by that one player on the bottom! I wouldn't be able to implement this without help of my great friend, so THAAAAAAANK YOU KRESO!!!

17.10.2015.
Finnaly I got MP3 player to work as I wanted, thanks to my friends Kreso and Vedran! Now you can click "show/hide playlist" inside of a player and than the magic happens :) This was not an easy task to implement, but with a little help everything is possible. This player is important for this site since you have a chance to listen to music collection as soon as you enter. I hope to surprise you a bit more in the future...

Another Croatian Italo Disco Party - 19.9.2015.

31.07.2015.
Two new books about Italo Disco! The History Of Italo Disco and Italo Disco Story. It's the same book, the first one is in English and the second one in Italian... The author is Francesco Cataldo Verrina, there is a bunch of interesting stuff to read... You can find it on page eBooks. There is free part of books for you to read and if you liked it, there is also a link to a store where you can buy it. BTW whole page on this site with books is slightly redisigned...

21.07.2015.
Two more Star albums added on BRAVO link - both of them about Kim Wilde.

17.07.2015.
Remember German magazine BRAVO (you can't buy scans here) from 80's? We used to read(?) it and we found first information and pics about Italo music. I saved some material, so here it is. I'll be adding more material from time to time. If you were also in contact with that magazine, I think that it will be a pleasn't experience to remember it after all of these years. They didn't have much material on Italo, but what they did have, I present you. If you have something that I don't, feel free to send it to me ;) So in main menu look for the link BRAVO.

05.07.2015.
Added an ad for 13. Cro italo Disco party.

23.03.2015.
Now you can use new mp3 html5 player properly, buttons are working as they should be! And why I made it? Some visitors didn't want to have Flash player installed so they couldn't load my mp3 Flash player. I understand them, Flash technology is something to be avoided. HTML5 is a native html player, meaning you don't have to install anything in order to load it. Another reason is because I wanted you to have a player with Italo songs from 80's at first page.

21.03.2015.
Here we go with a new player on site. It's a HTML5 player (based on SoundManager2), so there is no need for flash anymore (yet, you can still use it, page MP3 Samples). You can also find small menu that was on first page so far on the page MP3 Samples. So, this was a bit complicated to do, but it works now (not yet as I would like it to).

So on main page you have a picure that you have to click in order to load player. That is because player consists of 0,5 MB and that would be too much for some of you to load each time (I guess so). So look at that picture at the bottom. There are bottons to play/pause, volume control, go back, go forward, open/close playlist. Remember their position since you will not see them in the player (server problems, ah...). I hope to solve this problem in the future. You have a little pic of those buttons on the left.

So you have loaded player. At the left of it there are two links: OPEN and CLOSE playlist. When you click OPEN, playlist will be shown. So click wanted song and listen to it. If you want to close playlist, click link CLOSE. I hope to have those options in the player in the future. That's it so far, I'll be making it better in the future. Enjoy it! :)

IF YOU KNOW HOW TO PROGRAM IN HTML, LET ME KNOW. I COULD USE SOME HELP TO LINK ALL OF SONGS ON THE SITE WITH THIS PLAYER WHEN ANY MP3 LINK ON THE SITE IS CLICKED. I HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE SO FAR ABOUT IT, SO I LEFT A SMALL PLEYER ON THE LEFT TOO - TO PLAY SONGS FROM MP3 LINKS. IF YOU HAVE ANY OTHER IDEA ABOUT THIS, SUCH AS A HELP OR SUGGESTION, SEND ME E-MAIL...

03.03.2015.
Flyer added - big Italo Disco concert in Brescia, Italy - 7.5.2016!

15.02.2015.
New mp3 player added. Actually player is a part of your browser so each browser has a bit different player. Under the main menu on the left side you should always be able see red letters PLAYER. If you don't see it, click refresh in your browser or press F5 key. Or restart browser. There are several pages on this site with mp3 music, so please go to the each page with music and press F5 (pages with flash player don't have anything to do with this HTML5 player). You can test it on this page. So now when you click link to some song, player under the menu should play it. If it doesn't play, but new tab opens - you forgot to press F5 key in order to refresh it - to load a new version of page. I'm still testing that player so it doesn't look nice, but I think that I'll be able to make a proper one in the future... When you don't need it anymore, above the player you have link [Close]. Click it in order to close this player.

13.02.2015.
New movie uploaded: Agnetha: ABBA & After [2013]. You can find it on page Movie > Movies about Disco music. Soon I'll upload more movies about Abba. Also did some visual changes on various pages...

23.01.2015.
New page is online now. I was wondering how many songs in Italo Disco and High Energy are covers of some other songs, so I started searching for some data. Result of it you can find on page "Remakes". You can listen to all those songs in player built in Firefox, Chrome and Opera. There might be some mistake in collected data, so if you find some, let me know. Also you can tell me if you know some other songs that I didn't put on the page so far... Enjoy listening and discovering connection between Italo, Hi-NRG and other musical genres :)

01.01.2015.

Added a few more pages in menu. Yet, I haven't finished them, so you'll have to wait for some time to check them up. Also some new colour style in a menu. It has been the same for years now, so it deserved a bit of refreshment. :)

Last few years I was updating this site only with new music and the rest of the site was "frozen" for a long time. I decided to refresh and upgrade all of it. As a first change I removed Chat page since it was useless and now I'm introducing Forums page. There are a few forums in different languages listed there so I hope that you'll find the one that you're gonna like and use. I didn't recreate my forum since I have no time to be admin there.

It is my pleasure to announce that today this site has been online for 14 years, it all started back in 1998. because I was unhappy with sites devoted to Italo Disco at the time. There were just a few of them with not many of content to read, so I decided to make a site myself and to build it with all that I would like to see and to read. So here we are after 14 years! I hope that you'll keep on visiting and I hope that I'll have some more time to regularly update it with new stuff. If you have a suggestion how to improve it, feel free to send me e-mail to alenmilky@gmail.com.

Big Italo revival night in Greece in legendary disco club Barbarella (29.12.2010).

26.12.2010
Two more songs added, they are free FREE to download - your Christmas gift. One is a new one - Galactic Warriors - Space Patrol Orion. Here is their info: Max is Croatian, 36, and he lives in Germany. He heard on the radio some Italo Disco songs that he liked tremendously and so it all started. He was mostly fascinated by Koto & Laserdance. For years he was working as a D.J., collecting Italo Disco records, and the late nineties he started producing music. He used an Amiga 1200 with MusicX and OctaMed software and played on a Roland Alpha Juno1, but sounds were not good so it all boiled down to just a hobby. A month ago him and his longtime friend Kruno started a new project named Galactic Warriors. Kruno is 41, he lives in Croatia and also composes Space Music. Via Skype they exchanged informations and opinions, and soon there was the first song named Space Patrol Orion. Now they are working on another song and they aim to make the entire album. Galactic Warriors (as a hardware) use CPU AMD Phenom II X6 1055T BOX, Roland Juno-106, Roland JV-80 with expansion board VINTAGE SYNTH, Numark DM 1775A Digital Sampler, JBL Control 5, AKG K-240, Sennheiser MKH405, software: Fruity Loops 9.0, VSTi and SoundFonts. http://www.myspace.com/548622294, http://www.youtube.com/user/MultiKozmos?feature=mhum#p/u. Another single is by Night Fox - Endless Night. It's not new, but it is kind of unknown, so here it is!

19.12.2010
25 years of Silent Circle. And retrospective album named 25 Years - An Anniversary Album. Among others there are two unpublished songs. One of them is Italo - Don't Ask Me Why, and other is not. Also there is DJ Special Mix from 90's and I published it too. Their older songs you can find in 80's section.

16.12.2010
Digimax Feat. Marisa Machado - Wet Dreams in two versions added. I can't find any information where to buy it, so I guess that it's free. Available to download here. It's a very nice song!

06.12.2010
New record by Clay Pedrini. One song is named Ocean and the other one Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde - sounds familiar, doesn't it? :) I present you three versions of Ocean. First version is original and in my opinion it is the best one (if you ignore guitars), and other two are not that dynamic, but they are OK. It's nice to see that Clay is active after so many years. He also had a live performace recently...
And a small note - I removed two links from main menu (MP3 Samples and 2K Italo Disco) and they are now at the bottom of main page. It should be easier to find mp3 players, download samples and find recent Italo production this way... Also there is Chat page now on the main menu instead of Forum. I'm not sure why, but Forum is now disabled... Maybe in the future I'll link some other forum there...

02.11.2010
Three more singles presented here! Released in 2005, 2007 and 2010. I recently discovered Russian ex band Night Fox. You can enjoy their beautiful song Tears Of Love and two more - I Can't Live Without You and Only Love. All of them FREE to download! It's really hard to find some info on them, I found something only at Russian forums. Bodies Without Organs (BWO) released Sunshine In The Rain even in 2005! I had no idea. Original version is an average Eurodance song, but Tobias Bernstrup made Italo Disco version. And that one is excellent! It's enough to say that when I listen to my mp3-player during the rainy days, it always makes me smile. It's full of positive energy, check out video too, it's interesting because it's kind of weird... BTW, I have to play this song (with video) to my 2 year old daughter every morning, before I go to work. Nina is really hooked on it :) And the last one released a few days ago is Mirko Hirsch - Turn Me On. It's taken from his forthcoming album Obsession and it's FREE just for you!

08.10.2010
And one more FREE Siberian Heat release! Songs are named In Your City and Angel's Heart. In Your City enters my top five for 2010! FYI, members of Siberian Heat are composer Vitaly Polozov and our Russian disco queen Elen Cora as a singer. If you like their songs, you might consider a small (or bigger :)) donation since they have to pay for studio expences and afterwards share their work for free. Group's homepage is http://siberianheat.ucoz.ru and here is a page for donation (link copied from their site). And here are two videos:

07.10.2010
Another AA-sided maxi single by Elen Cora - Tightrope Dancer and No Less No More. Again, it's a FREE one! Enjoy it!

New stuff from Grant Miller! Actually, kind of... You can listen now to Grant Miller Megamix 2010 - four versions plus California Train 2010. It would be nice to hear something new from him. It has been tried to contact Grant but I don't think that he will sing again due to objective reasons, I can't talk about it here. Yet, I hope that I'm wrong...

15.09.2010
Added full duration samples: Alan Cook - Don't Give Up and Jerry Moon - Red Shoes.

Bravo Andy!!! Finally one song with old effects - voice sampling like in Working Girl or Who's Your Boyfriend. Seems like Bobby O style :)
The other record is Dario - All The Night. Song is made in Time Records style and everything is fine but to me it's boring, melody is not exciting at all. Maybe you'll like it more...
I'm going to seaside for three weeks so no updates during that period...

It is not published yet and I have no idea where and when it will be published. So be patient since it is great song! And the last one. Recently I received e-mail from singer named Bimbo Boy with link to his latest song Boy Loves Boy so here it is. There are three version, but I published the one that has Italo sound - Vision Talk Remix. Lyrics are like sequel of Hey Hey Guy...

Two new records with well known singers for I Venti Records and Delivery Records: Eddy Huntington - Eddy Huntington – Love for Russia/Love and Stage - I Can't Get You Out Of My Mind. You can listen to Stage, and you'll have to wait for Eddy a bit more. Actually song by stage is not new, it is new version of old song, but this time without too much of guitars. Very nice melody! Old version you can find here. New video uploaded - Eddy Huntington - U.S.S.R.

New stuff again! Finally we have a chance to get new maxi by Riccardo Campa - already released Desperado on Flashback Vol. 2 CD and one nice new song Casanova. There is also new album by Vision Talk named Dirty Italo Disco. Why ditry? Because the style is not pure Italo. The sound is nice but other stuff... Listen for yourself, you might like it. And new crazy video Scotch - Disco Band.

31.05.2009.
Hey Italo gang, here is something that you haven't been expecting I guess. Soon you'll be able to get a new maxi by Squash Gang!!! Recently they had a concert in Spain (with other Italo artists from Spain) so maybe that was inspiration for new songs... So here we have two short samples. When I Close My Eyes is simply masterpiece, great! And Tell Me Why is good song but just like many others... And new nice song by Andy Romano - Stay With You. I don't know yet when will it be published, I gotta ask him and then I'll let you know... Enjoy new Italo music! And new video uploaded Martinelli - Cenerentola.

26.05.2009.
New video to download - Laskoviy May - Belye Rozy. And just a small note for those who want to buy new Ken Laszlo because of Hey Hey Guy '83. This version is copied from Sandro Oliva's old tape and it wasn't edited nowdays in studio. It sounds like they even didn't do normalization. Weird! So the quality is... You can imagine... Not perfect as it was supposed to be!!! And yet good for tape twenty years old... And quality of A side could have been better. It's not that bad as B side, but there is something wrong too...

20.05.2009.
Again a new gift for you! Elen Cora has new maxi with two songs Over Time and This Love (Is More Than A Feeling). Listen to the music in Over Time, it's perfect, like Farina's production. This is great maxi, and you'll get it agin for free thanks to Elen! Now we wait for her LP with group Siberian Heat. I heared one song so far named Sorry and I can tell you that you will not be dissapointed :) It's perfect!

New awesome song by Ken Laszlo - Dancing Forever!!! Listen to the lyrics, it is similar to Peter's last song, it also talks about Italo fans, but this is not nostalgic but happy song. It's really interesting song, I didn't like it when I heared it for the first time, but I kept on listening and after six times it became really great! It's nice to hear this old, familiar voice :). B side is Hey Hey Guy from 1983! This sounds really older than version from 1984. Nice surprise! And new video to download Sister Sister - Blue Night In Alcatraz.

14.03.2009.
New video to download Savage - Don't Cry Tonight.

08.03.2009.
New Italo song by new Italo label - Dreamtrack Diamond Sound. Song Meltdown is not what you would expect, meaning, it's kind of modern version of Italo Disco production. Very nice, I can't get it out of my head :) And Holdin' Out is classical song. I think that you'll like it too... And a few words to you from producers of this maxi:
Dreamtrak - Based in North London in the UK, The label is run by a dedicated team of Italo Disco fans. We also run a recording studio and hold a monthly Synthesizer dance party called "Dreamtrak Diamond Nights". "Meltdown/Holdin' Out" is the first Dreamtrak release, recorded and mixed in house at Dreamtrak Studios. Hopefully we will be putting out further Italo influenced tracks on the back of this one.
Valerio Loveland - From Centocelle, Rome. Valerio was discovered performing in a nightclub by the Dreamtrak team. The team thought he would be perfect for the tracks Holdin' Out and Meltdown and invited him over to London to sing on them. When in the studio the team and Valerio all realised this was going to be a great record. We are currently trying to get Valerio back over to London for some performances!

And now something special for you: I hope that all of you so far found out about new song by Peter Arcade named Italo Disco [listen]. This song is very special not only because of great music but also because of unique lyrics. So I asked Peter to write a few words for you since this song is devoted to you - all of Italo Disco fans - the best people that you can meet according to my experience. So Peter wrote following:

The starting point is that, as you know, we have thousands of italo hits talking about sentimental stories that all the fans (that i prefer to call "believers" and "daydreamers") used and still listen to, so I wanted, for once, to compose a song talking about them, and the style itself; that is talking also about me, 'cause i had the luck to be on both sides as a fan and, later, as an artist. :-) A song that describes the moments of those that were teenagers during the original "golden age" (in the 80es) and that are still here, after more than 25 years, sharing the same sensations; that tells how "believers" and the "storytellers" (the artists) are stars of the same sky. The lyrics of "Italo disco" themselve explains it all:

You will also find, on the backsleeve of the record, the following personal dedication that expresses the concept:

MORE THAN A STYLE, ITALO DISCO HAS BEEN A MAGICAL, MUSICAL DREAM MADE OF FEELINGS AND PLAYED BY THE SOULS OF ROMANTIC AND AGELESS TEENAGERS THAT BELIEVED, FOREVER, IN ETERNAL LOVE; THIS RECORD IS DEDICATED TO ALL THOSE "DREAMERS" AND "BELIEVERS".

Best regards, Peter Arcade

Another CD by Fred Ventura is out! Actually for some time... It consists of some of his old songs in combination with new ones made in cooperation with other artists. Some of the songs were already presented here, and someare here for the first time. New interesting song is I'm Not Ready. When I heared it, I was confused - is it Fred or Bobby O?! Yes, it's Fred but using Bobby O style. Since Fred said that he is big Bobby O fan, this shouldn't be surprise. I can hear elements from at least three songs by Bobby O in this one - She Has A Way, Shoot Your Shot, Calling All Boys... Very nice, maybe refrain melody might be a bit more interesting. Other new songs are City Of Destiny and I Cut My Heart Out. City Of Destiny is unusually happy for Fred. I didn't expect it, his style is more sadish so this is something new. And I Cut My Heart Out. I Cut This Song Out. You can forget about this one, I suppose that this one was CD filler, it lasts for 8.48. Silence would have been much better choice...

We didn't have to wait for a long time to hear new maxi by (now known to you) Elen Cora. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check her previous single. This time she has two songs for us in several versions. And yes, again you got her music for FREE, great, thanks Elen!!! Call Me is very catchy song, nice vocal and nice production. Sleeping In Your Hands is based on low tempo Space Disco sound. And again there is very nice melody. This time I wanted to inform you a bit more about her work, so here it is. Do your homework and read it :)

Elen Cora was born on february 2nd 1985. in beautiful SIBERIAN city - Krasnoyarsk (RUSSIA) as Elena Korennykh Valentinovna to her parents Galina and Valentin Korennykh. She has one brother - Alexei Korennykh, who lives in America (San-Francisco). First song was written by Elen (alias Elen Cora) when she was 11 years old. She took vocal lessons when she was 14. After school her parents told that she has to go to the UNIVERSITY, but after 4 semesters she left highschool and all her time was devoted to the MUSIC!!! Almost all of songs by Elen are in English because her favourite artists are Modern Talking, C.C.Catch, Sandra, Enigma... She was listening to their songs and her dream was to sing like Sandra and C.C.Catch... To sing in English and to be so famous like they are... But what we are talking about... oh, naturally... Elen gave the concerts, wrote her own songs and sang in bands where she was lead-singer. It's all what she wanted from her life!!! First group where she sang was named ECLIPSE, it was just the beginning. There were two girls. But the passion to grow was too strong and after one demo album she started singing in more successful project Non-stop, incl. again 2 persons - Elen Cora and Victor Nezamaev. During this time Elen also took part in club project Kids of rain, incl. Elen, naturally, DJ Vankor and some dancers. It was great club music, and with this group Elen gave her first concert in the night club!!! After Non-stop and Kids of rain, after few yers, she took part in Hop-hop & Lounge project TRILOBIT, incl. 3 persons - Elen, Vasily Kirshenkov and Katja Shahmatova. But this project was over soon! Also Elen always sang as a solo-singer because she has so many her own songs!!! In 2007 she began to sing in the most successful, than all her old projects, band SIBERIAN HEAT! It is the DISCO project with wonderful old-style (Italo Disco) music!

Fancy is with us again with new CD named Forever Magic! Actually there are two versions of this album, all of songs are the same but bonus. First one is published in Germany and it has two old remixed songs as bonus. Another one is published in Russia and it has some new bad song as bonus. I can mention a few interesting songs. Flames Of Love is kind of weird this time, it is half in English and half in Russian. Actually very bad Russian :), it is very hard to understand the lyrics, I really wonder who told him how to sing it. Yet, it has some charm, it's the same as when Italians sing in bad English... The best song that lasts only 2.27 is Forever Magic. It makes me wanna dance to it every time I hear it, just like Love Spy does. Some parts are stolen from some Eurodance songs from 90's... This song is really great, can't stop listening to it! Little Juliet is very interesting because of something typical. Check up what is it. A Voice In The Dark - also great song, maxi is already released, I'll upload it soon. Do I have to say that remixed Go Cha Cha and Wait By The Radio are also something to enjoy in? So this CD has something that was expected from Fancy - very nice and catchy melodies that make you wanna sing along. I have to mention worst song ever that Fancy published - I'm Your Bodyguard. I really can't believe it. Is it a Turkish folk song or what??? Hm... I have no idea what was it that he wanted to achieve with this one. Strange... Anyway, it nice to hear that Fancy is active again. Now we wait for Forever Magic maxi single. Untill than, enjoy this album!

And sad news at the end - RIP Mike Francis. He died on 30.1.2009. after a long illness.

FlashBack Records CD compilation Presence Of The Past Vol. 2 is out! So what do we have here. Fred Ventura - I Want You Back is usually good. Yet, the last song that was masterpiece was Memories. After that single songs are fine but that's it - just fine. I hope to hear some perfection from Fred again... Tiziana Rivale - Ash is also nice song. It is easy to get used to it after a few listenings. Felli - Shadows Of The Night... One word - perfection! New song by Riccardo Campa - Desperado. It's not yet on vynil, only on this CD. I like it very much, yet it's not as good as Another Day and Madness... Dyva - My Love. Can guys from Dyva go wrong? I don't think so! Their music is really something! Peter Arcade is presented with song The Fairytale. Another reallly good song, but I prefer A side of the same recod - song with intresting title - Italo Disco. Then Bruno Mosti - Music Of My Star. Hm... This song confuses me. I like it a bit and then I don't wanna listen to it. And my opinion changes all the time. Strange... George aaron - Heaven - one of the best songs in last few years. Great!! Then Patty - My Name Is Patty - was it supposed to sound like Sabrina? I guess. This song has some really nice parts but I simply can't stand those guitars. Horrible! Hey producers, this is Italo Disco! Wrong instrument for this kind of music! And the last song Karl Otto & Joey Mauro - Come Into My Dream. It's OK but something is wrong here. Seems like some instrument is a bit late and it makes it out of sync. Actually it's not, but it is just my impression. It also happens in some other songs that Joey Mauro made... So that's it, if you don't want to buy records, this is a chance to buy a CD.
