The Horror Disco concept all started with the chance loan of a noisy, old, incontrollable, 70´s Farfisa Syntochestra synthesizer. This proved to be the weapon of choice for several of the tracks on the album (Mary Lewis, Magnetic Cat) with Bottin building up hand-played layers old school style. A few tweaks of the Farfisa led our man to the world of sounds he grew up to: the soundtracks to Italian slasher B-movies (like those by Lucio Fulci, Bava, Argento & Alberto Martino), but also futuristic horror scenarios, cosmic travels and close encounters with space vampires... The die was set.


The film influence is ever present too, ´Horror Disco´ is the Giallo intro opener. ´Venezia Violenta´ is the imaginary soundtrack to a futuristic cowboy flick Westworld and the closing track ´Endless Mother´ is pure John Carpenter 1982 vibe, rejuvenated by a screaming synth ostinato. The well-received, recent, single and Italo chunker ´No Static´ is also included. ´Horror Disco´ is an impressive album with a rare attention to detail. We hope you like it as much as we do.
