Our Project
Giorgio-Moroder-Disco.com is the work of several years. With the help of many music and disco fans, friends and numerous other Moroder (and Donna Summer) fans over the world we have now quiet a bit of info here. Detailed track listing, audio sample and many scans of covers. The work is still not complete! We will try to add as many new stuff and more audio sample over the next future as possible.
This discography is divided in two main sections: singles (7" and 12" ) and Lp
- Cd.
I may as well add a third section with releases/covers of other artists who perform Moroder composed music.
You can submit to this site lyrics or further details and we will be happy to publish it.
Who is Giorgio Moroder?
Known as the father of disco, Giorgio is one of the most appreciated, talented and famous music producer and composer of the last 40 years.
Father of the disco-music, Giorgio produced well known artists like Donna Summer, Roberta Kelly, David Bowie, Blondie, Cher, Limahl, Freddy Mercury, Irene Cara. He wrote award winning songs for movies such as Midnight Express, American Gigolo, Flashdance, Electric Dreams, Neverending Story, Top Gun, Over The Top... and music for many other movies.
3 Academy Awards, 4 golden Globe, several Grammy awards (the last one shared with Donna Summer for the song "Carry On") and hundreds of gold and platinum disks are only some of the many awards he won.
Though Moroder has been famous for his music for over a quarter of a century, he has always been active in other creative fields as well. Several years ago, in collaboration with Claudio Zampolli, the italian car designer, he created the Cizeta-Moroder automobile, an exotic sixteen-cylinder, two seater sports car. Moroder`s work on that automobile also led to an award from the City of Philadelphia for outstanding logo design.
Giorgio`s renown as a musician dates back to 1974, when he and his partner Pete Bellotte wrote the music and produced " Love to love you baby" sung by Donna Summer. The song rose quickly to the top of the charts and created a trend of Disco Music with Donna Summer as the absolute disco-queen. In 1979, he won his first Academy Award for his score for the film " Midnight Express". Two more Oscars were to follow: for Irene Cara`s hit single " Flashdance... What a Feeling," (from the movie Flashdance), and for " Take My Breath Away" a multi-platinium recording by the group Berlin for the film "Top Gun". Numerous other awards for his music include four Golden Globes, three Grammys, two People`s Choise Awards, and more than hundred golden and platinium disks.
Hope you will find all the info you are looking for.
