Review by Lopik Sep 25, 2009
You can hardly find someone like Giorgio. He did not produce just I Feel Love, The Chase and E=MC2 album, as it may look from perspective of electronic dance music hardcore fan. Besides of these gems he made tons of crappy stuff, but also many of timeless pop classics like You Take My Breath Away, What a Feeling, Love Kills with Freddie Mercury or theme song from Neverending Story and many more than average songs and sountracks.
This man has got at home three Oscars for his work on Top Gun, Flashdance and Midnight Express, three Grammys and four Golden Globes. I believe you can't be more wrong than speaking about one-hit-wonder or low production skills with Giorgio Moroder together.
Review by Crijevo Mar 10, 2004
Well, Giorgio did his one-hit-wonder-thing in the wake of Kraftwerk with Donna Summer's ever-after-classic 'I Feel Love', a song that proves any remixes or covers absolutely unecessary to the original, even by today's standards... BUT what else did he do to establish himeself as a leading producer of whatever his influence might suggest? A so called 'euro-disco' style of production made some neat potential into hermetically glam of early Japan of powered up Blondie with 'Call Me'... Most of other stuff out there however, shows Giorgio's responsibility for junk dance acts, countless throughout the 80s and 90s... 'I Feel Love' still makes it a fragile, direct, aggressive, irresistable pulse Moroder very hardly tried to collect on any later input - for this hit alone, we must greet him although his production skills aren't that particularly special. Rather sleazy and sometimes quite cheap. Take 'Flashdance' soundtrack for instance... I wonder what his version of Fritz Lang's 'Metropolis' sounds like?
Review by phil6875 Jan 18, 2004
This is the man responsible for maybe the most influential electronic track of the last 25 years, 'Donna Summer's' - 'I Feel Love'. This was his production all the way and was the blueprint for all subsequent Techno/Trance tracks.
