After Fancy vs The Flirts I was compelled to mix some Italo Disco tracks from the previously mentioned Neon playlist on Spotify. Due to some vastly differing BPMs it turned out to be a bit difficult & I ended up chucking in the last 2 tracks unmixed for the Hell of it.
What is happen now? Now, you click play and rock out for the next 52 minutes! Unless you hate Italo Disco…
1. Kano – Another Life
2. Stage – Can’t Get You Out Of My Mind (Dance Version)
3. Bobby O – One More Shot
4. Airplay ft. K. van Haaren – For Your Love
5. Fancy vs The Flirts – Slice Me Helpless (Mashup)
6. Fancy – Turbo Dancer (Remix)
7. Fancy vs The Flirts – Slice Me Helpless (Mashup) (Reprise)
8. Kano – I Need Love
9. Yanguru – Won’t You Help Me
10. Gina T. – Tokyo By Night (Geisha Groove Mix)
11. Vocoder – What Is Happen Now
Repeat listenings to an Italo Disco playlist on Spotify sparked a conversation over two tracks that seemed to use the same chord pattern.
Digging deeper into the Italo Disco legend it became clear that a maverick producer by the name Bobby Orlando (Bobby O) directly used a riff from “Slice Me Nice” by Fancy in the track “Helpless”, that he produced for The Flirts.
It was from this, and listening to several bad mashup attempts, that the idea to create a bootleg version was conceived…
