To all 'winers' and 'wankers' who are crying their eyes out (like Best-records-italy and CasaliniDJ) because of missing some overaged royalties:>>> You should be very greatful and thankful for the free airplay and hours of effort people like Flemming Dalum and likeminded mixers and editors (not to forget Intergalactic FM) are willing to invest to promote Italo Disco, and still putting those old tracks who everybody seem to have been niglected the last few decades into the limelight again.Just a quick question:' WHERE' have You been the last 35 Years?Only now (2017/2018 Best records is willing to re-release the back-catalogue - and not even willing to invest a little in a proper masteringsession.Your re-releases do SUCK balls!!!Yes! I (an authentic oldschool Italo-Wanker) for sure do think Flemming Dalum (and Also I-F) deserves the title of a true Italo-DIsco Hero.He has paid his massive italo disco collection in full by purchasing every vinyl release in the recordstores back then and since, he's doing a hell of a job to promote the style to a whole new generation.He's one of those forces that's keeping this music loved and becausecof that very Alive!You haven't paid any atention to the demand for any cool italo-disco releases the last 35 years, instead you have been Buissy doing 'other' things.So don't start nagging when somebody has a little succes with the stuff you threw away allready a long time ago.One mans garbage is, another mans treasure.Shame on You!

Simply a masterpiece from italo icon Flemming Dalum !I've found this historical (and additional) facts regarding the mix on the web:"This mix was made on request from the legandary Danish DJ Kjeld Tolstrup (R.I.P.) He worked at the Danish National Radio back in 2008 and wanted a wider audience to discover italo disco. I followed his request and made this italo tribute mix to honor the legendary italo artists and to share my italo passion to the new generation of today. The mix included most of my personal italo top favorits – no obscure records this time. So this mix represent a good example of the early italo sound which got me into italo back in the early 80s. It was played several times at the Danish National Radio which means that at least 500.000 listeners got an ultimate introduction to italo disco"

It's just weird ,why an unofficial cd-r is listed here on Discogs as a release. With all do respect ,i have many Italo mixes,all made with vinyls but of course it's not correct to list it here . . .

Great djtony from Greece, you're the king! And do you know why? Because you got the records !!! The pure vinyls 100%. Esteem and respect forever, my eternal friend. εκτίμηση και τη φιλία για πάντα, ο φίλος μου, σας ευχαριστώ πολύ. Claudio

I never signed any contract with any company (only with some major as Polydor UK and another label in Berlin, Germany) and I never had any kind of contact in the last 30 years with Mr. Flemming Dalum or some people from his part. I do not understand the "furore" aroused in many of his followers in the state that this situation has continued for many years and to claim that my productions have never been paid with a penny in royalties. All of you have a lot of respect for this "monster talent" who makes incredible mixes (run at no cost or costing him zero €.) and no to all the DJ-producers who have made enormous sacrifices to achieve their own Italo-Disco record production. Salvatore Cusato died, Carlo Favilli died, Elvio Pieri died, Mauro Boncaldo died, Stefano "Steve" Galante is in Canada, Stefano Zito is working in the movie business, and many people take profif / chance to robber their things. I give you notice that I never turned to the International courts and not yet at my law firm - lawyer. Leopoldo Lombardi SIAE lawyer and former president of AFI - because - for the moment I think it is a further loss of time, but may be if you insist I can change idea. God will judge him. Good evening

Proberly the very best italo mix ever made. It captures the true vibe and essence of italo as no other mix does. An outstanding guideline and great inspiration for the new generation to learn about italo. Just search and buy all those amazing original and unique 12inch vinyls. Highly recommended !

Strange.. so you claim the Dutch recordlabel Medellin Mixage released this and two mixes by Intergalactic Gary without premission ? I can't believe it. Well I'm sure if you contact the Dutch recordlabel Medellin Mixage who released this mix - then they will of cause take care of it for you. Okay now back to the music - Flemming Dalum creative and mixing skills really added a new dimension to all those old classics... no other DJ can match this level !. And to a lot of people he has a major part in the second wave of italo disco. Beside his phenomenal artistic skills he presented (as the very first person) so many unknown italo records to the italo scene over the last decade. Hugh respect to Flemming Dalum !

"Proberly the very best italo mix ever made" ....without any permission or authorization of the record producers, owners of the relative original master tapes, without paying a cent of royalties to those original entitled, taking advantage of a legal vacuum that exists in Europe, especially in Holland, England and the Scandinavian countries, my "Dear friend" !!!

I never purposefully paid attention to these "by-products", especially if made on cd, 'support of sound' with very short life compared to vinyl, once again demonstrating the 'sub-culture' of its creator, undoubtedly very passionate person about genre Italo-Disco. So devote person as evidenced by some snapshots of him leaning against the van of a wholesaler of records of the Milanese Hinterland, ...or in front a disco-club located between Rimini and Riccione on the Adriatic Coast on a hot August afternoon (...when the place was usually open after midnight). A person who in Italy have never known anyone important, but - however - has managed to make a name (...well! So to speak) in the world of the collectors (he's really so important?), using without any permission record productions not belong to him and for the use of which it has never been required any license. In the 64 songs of this work - but what I'm saying? I do not think this is a work in the sense of "masterpiece" - at least a dozen of songs are my own "intellectual" property. Twelve - I repeat - 12 master-tapes made from 1982 to 1985 with other my colleagues, great and little DJ-producers, who have shared with me the record property of these tracks, sometimes also the publishing. Same of these "childrens" of the 80s, 'in debt up to the neck' for realizing their dream of making a "disco-mix", have died.I have never seen any respect for them. What a pity, what a shame!Claudio Casalini

But asking money from DJs who produce italo mixtapes is absurd, even if they are only made for promotional purposes, and not as a work of art. In my opinion, record companies and copyright holders should see it as free promotional work or tribute. It's easier to take profits in another place.

Playing each song just for a few seconds makes it impossible to explore new tunes, on the contrary, potential songs you might like will be overlooked. Still don't get the point of these kind of mixes. Maybe it's an homage to the megamixes that flooded the market in the mid 80s, but I see them only as commercial side-products without much importance.

Can someone who owns the CD version of this mix please confirm that the tracklist differs slightly from the online version available at robotdj.net and SoundCloud?The online version does not seem to contain the last two tracks (Funky Family/Ken Laszlo) but instead has "The Creatures - Believe In Yourself" after "Doctor's Cat - Feel The Drive".

I've heard this mix countless times, and still can't get over what Flemming Dalum did with Torrevado, Gazebo & Marzio Dance. Top notch :))

Another truly stunning mix by Flemming Dalum - the man who goes the extra mile in all his mixes to bring new life to tracks with very smart editing and a stunning ear for detail. This mix really does include all the "classics" - but at the same time you will feel like you are listening to a completely fresh italo sound as each track blends seamlessly together, sometimes with only minor loops from each track (such as Gazebo's "Wrap the Rock" and Diviacchi's "waiting for heaven". In all there are probably more than 75 tracks crammed into the mix, with the best bits from each included, without ruining the original. Hugely recommended for fans of all electronic music (not just italo) who want to understand more about the often "forgotten" era in the history of dance music.
