Giorgio

FYI
Giorgio Moroder is an Academy Award-winning Italian record producer, songwriter and performer, whose groundbreaking work with synthesizers during the 1970s was a significant influence on new wave, techno and electronic music in general. Particularly well known are Donna Summer's disco hits produced by Moroder, including "I Feel Love". Moroder is also the founder of the former Musicland Studios in Munich, which served as a recording home for artists ranging from Led Zeppelin and Queen to Elton John for much of the 1980s and 1990s.

Haha, nice.

I've got a sample CD of his (or at least attributed to him), based off of programs for around 10 different pieces of hardware; it's one of my favourites to use in productions. He really is brilliant.

His studio looks like Trent Reznor's, lulz.

probably the most influencial producer on electronic dance music. Kraftwerk was electronic.. but moroder was dance!

I think he is probably the first to put together an actual mix/ compilation

with the LP "from here to eternity" that was in 1977

correct me anyone if i am wrong.

anyways this one here never gets old

Great man. Met him as a kid, through my uncle in New York City.

Loved his Midnight express track.
