“Italo Disco. The Sparkling Sound of the 80s” immerses the audience in a musical universe of an era. An era where millions of young Europeans would let loose to a wild beat of music made with synthetic and captivating melodies, more or less weird English lyrics, electronic rhythms and visionary music videos. Cybernetic tracks fueled hopes and dreams of the young musicians, who were capable of releasing mind-blowing pop, and always moving between trash and brilliance.
