Italo disco refers to an entire genre of dance music that evolved mysteriously and very quickly during the early 80's in Italy and other parts of Europe. Italo Disco music was and still is considered to be quite futuristic and spacey in regards to the massive effects created with the first generation of true synthesizers, drum machines, and vocoders. From the standpoint of a true Italo disco enthusiast, a true and authentic italo disco song is Italian produced on an Italian record label. Anything similar but produced outside of Italy can be described as Euro disco. The name 'italo disco' originates from the Italo Boot Mix series, created in 1983 by Bernhard Mikulski, the founder of German-based, ZYX Music - a megamix featuring Italian produced disco music. Prior to 1983, the genre was simply referred to as 'disco music'. [1]
