Gino Soccio ‎– Dancer

A great slice of electronic disco music, "Dancer" was dropped by Jeff Mills many many times in the middle of his techno sets during the 90s.

Really nice color scheme! Are all these Gino Soccio colored vinyl pressing from Colombia "unofficial" bootlegs?

This is a great electronic disco single. Gino Soccio is a producer with different skills that this release illustrate perfectly. While the A side is the good feeling dance track (genuinely titled 'Dancer' so that there won't be no mistake!), the B side is a fantastic downtempo pre-balearic track _too short_ that gives all its strength to the single.

OK i'm being a little snobbish here as I could have commented on the whole "Outline" album which features these two tracks plus only three others ; but who can resist a Colombian-only, multi-coloured 12-inch vinyl featuring the two best tunes of the album on two full sides?
So here we do have "Dancer", one of Gino Soccio's most famous and uplifting moments, all shiny and enticing d-i-s-c-o, but the most interesting by far is the B-side "There's A Woman", an astounding futuristic piece which instru-mental would seriously sound like a cross between Robert Hood's most 'raindrop-staccato' moments, Isolée's liquid arpeggio, some Smith-n-Hack deranged, unstable sample-based groove, with a drop of My Mine's acid accordion in "Hypnotic Tango", released four years later. Gino's vocals add a pleasant camp/pre-hiNRG touch a la Patrick Cowley.
To this day, this one is still seriously, amazingly, visionary.

genius first international succes from G.Soccio ,

30 years after , still a fat & strong track !
