Awesome, Zorg! Here are a few other italo/Hi-NRG blasts!
Automat - (The) Rise (The) Advance (The) Genus: Apparently the musicians made the album as a kind of demonstration for a new synthesizer. It is shown off best in this 17-minute instrumental monster.
Bagarre - Lemonsweet: The most "famous" Bagarre track, it has become a cult favorite.
Bagarre - Dirty Love: The music perfectly captures the title - it's funky, a little bit cheap but irresistible.
Bagarre - For Your Pleasure: The most amazing hybrid of italo disco, funk, new wave and a sort of French cool, all processed into a grainy B-grade Little Red Riding Hood motif.
Charlie - Spacer Woman: Probably the most well-loved italo track, it has a monster beat and wonderfully warped pleading vocals.
Dharma - Plastic Doll: Layers and layers of awesomely buzzing synths. The lyrics perfectly represent the darker side of love that the genre explores so well.
Easy Going - Fear: This would be a PERFECT song for my Horror Disco compilation. Just look at the cover in that video! It has such a skittering, nervous and foreboding energy before unexpectly opening up into an almost uplifting epilogue.
Fun Fun - Happy Station: Overloaded with cheese, this is dancefloor fodder for shameless 5-year-olds and 70-year-olds alike!
Gaznevada - I.C. Love Affair: This song has the coolest vibe of any italo track, I think.
Kano - It's a War: Apocalyptic synth+bass madness! One of my all-time faves.
Kano - I'm Ready: Their most famous song, it was sampled for "Whoomp There It Is". This just phlanges and funks its way to a hefty cosmic groove.
Kano - She's a Star: The addition of the real bass makes this song and its parent album their funkiest yet. I love the nocturnal mood of this - that slice of neon purple cake set against the pitchest of pitch black nights in the album cover is perfect imagery.
Kano - Another Life: Another fan favorite, the synths are unreal. Too bad the vocals are horrendous, but that is a trait of a lot of italo.
Klein & M.B.O. - Dirty Talk: The sexiest, filthiest groove of any italo track, I find. This one goes straight to the naughty bits.
'Lectric Workers - Robot Is Systematic: The most manic and psychotic italo track yet. The uvulating vocals are downright hysterical!
Lime - On the Grid: A relentless onslaught of synths, this is what Hi-NRG is all about!
Lime - Angel Eyes: A poppier Lime track with some very questionable vocals, but still filled to the gills with vibrant thrills.
Lisa - Rocket to Your Heart: It sounds like Bubble Bobble's neon ecstasy EXTENDed for over 9 glorious minutes!
Mr. Flagio - Take a Chance: Another favorite of the genre is one I can't find for sale!
Sylvia Love - Instant Love: I could swim in those synth whooshes forever and ever...
Tantra - A Placed Called Tarot: Like "The Hills of Katmandu", it shifts between different segments quite dexterously, adding to an amazing whole.
Tantra - Macumba: This video doesn't have the whole thing, sadly, but you get the idea - Tantra's wild blend of italo, exotic mysticism, and almost progressive rock is there for the tasting.
Tantra - Wishbone: This is the flipside to "The Hills of Katmandu", equally stretched to epic proportions.
