80s Euro/Italo/New Wave Disco songs

Oriphiel · 02-23-2015, 05:03 AM

Thanks for the response, those songs are pretty good! I guess I would have to say that I like the songs that have just a few sound effects (one or two good synth/keyboard lines is always enough for me), usually with a fast beat, and definitely with vocals. For example, here are the songs that I've liked enough to put in my journal so far:

Sylvester - Do You Wanna Funk?

Spoiler for Do You Wanna Funk?:

Julie Coulson - Big Time Operator (Operador de Exitos)

Spoiler for Big Time Operator:

Pete Shelley - Homosapien

Spoiler for Homosapien:

The Flirts - Helpless

Spoiler for Helpless:

Sparks - Tryouts for the Human Race

Spoiler for Tryouts for the Human Race:

Vivien Vee - Remember

Spoiler for Remember:

Also, I was wondering something. What's the main difference between American and European Disco/Hi-NRG? Do they have different sounds?

I was looking more for songs that are from the late 1970's and early 1980's, because my journal is kind of a period piece. But thanks for the recommendations, I really appreciate them!

From Germany, actually. But lead vocalist was Spanish, so they made some songs in Spanish, like this one:

Yes, he was Spanish and also a professor at a University after his musical career.
