This collaboration between Jamie Lewis &
Dario Dattisis is pure 80s Space Disco sound.
Special thanks to Claudio Donato from Full Time records who made this possible.
The entry of synthesizers and other electronic effects into the disco genre produced electronic dance music, including Americas Hi-NRG and Europes space disco. Italo discos influences were Italian producer Giorgio Moroder, French musician Didier Marouani, a couple of hits by the French drummer Cerrone, electropop (Kraftwerk, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Telex, Devo and Gary Numan), and the early Hi-NRG albums of San Francisco producer Patrick Cowley with singers such as Sylvester and Paul Parker. By 1980, Italo appeared as a fully developed form in Italy and other parts of Europe. Songs were sometimes completely electronic and often featured drum machines, catchy melodies, vocoders, overdubs, and heavily accented English lyrics.

Along with love, Italo
disco themes deal with robots and space, sometimes combining all three in songs
including Robot Is Systematic(1982) by Lectric Workers and Spacer Woman (1983)
by Charlie. Italo disco was widely played on radio stations and in discothèques
in Europe, but in the English-speaking world, it was mostly limited to
nightclubs. Jamie Lewis & Dario Dattis introduce again the 80s club Club
flava of space disco sound.
