Phew! now that Don Rosco has gone on his holliers, I can safely get away with posting some italo disco. ;)

It’s pretty old news by now, but a few years back, I was trawling around the French music site D-I-R-T-Y looking for good mixes (they have an insanely good mix of Air playing country and western tunes up there btw, even if it is in RealAMRadio format). I gave I-F’s Mixed Up In The Hague a go, and as soon as Track 3 — Pluton and the Humanoids, ‘World Invasion’ — came on, I was blown away.

I-F’s still plugging away, and every year runs a top 100 vote on his site, cbs.nu, which is a fantastic way to hear the italo classics (and, in my experience, drive girlfriends nuts). You can download the lot here, as a ZIP of MP3s.

For a more reasonably-sized taster, check out the KRLX link and pick up Pluton and the Humanoids - ‘World Invasion’, Mr. Flagio - ‘Take a Chance’, and Charlie - ‘Spacer Woman’ — those are the three tracks that really top the lot.
