FULL STREAM: Giorgio Moroder - From Here To Eternity (1977)

Looks like I'm not listening to Daft Punk for a while.

Like a lot of people, I first heard of Giorgio Moroder during the making of Daft Punk's latest album Random Access Memories. I decided to delve deeper, after a friend of mine played me snippets from Moroder's 1976 album Knights in White Satin. It's absolutely mind-blowing how influential every sound, every trance-inducing passage, on this album is; but then, to dig deeper, it's also mind-blowing how much crossover there was between the contemporary likes of Kraftwerk and Moroder's Italo-disco electronica.

At a digestible thirty minutes, I never want to stop listening to From Here To Eternity. Also, I now see where Philly rapper Spank Rock derived his "Modbroder" alter ego:

Everything Is Boring and Everyone Is A Fucking Liar Double-Post

Maryland hip-hop duo Spank Rock are back with forty-one minutes of coool sounds on their slickest, most danceable album yet Everything Is Boring and Everyone Is A Fucking Liar (Bad Blood Records, 2011).
