The Color of Television: An Odyssey of Detroit Techno, Italo Disco and Beyond



The Color of Television: An Odyssey of Detroit Techno, Italo Disco and Beyond by jessek

Suggested consumption before consuming this mixtape: Neuromancer by William Gibson, Futureshock and The Third Wave by Alvin Toffler, Omni Magazine, Escape from New York, Blade Runner. Break out the parachute pants, fingerless gloves and mirrorshade Ray-Ban aviators, it's time for a trip back in time to the future the 80s promised but never delivered. A heady mix of Detroit Techno, Italo Disco and some more modern stuff.

  1. Loving this BUNCHES. Sadly most of your other compilations have been deleted by Zshare.

    Very happy I got this one before it evaporated into the digital night.

  2. Hi there. I used your mix (from archive dot org I discovered it) to make a broadcast on a Sunday night and I uploaded the fragments that the censorship allowed to my channel, that is, in case you want to see it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1601Q9pi2lU Thank you very much, good wishes and all that :)
