GIORGIO MORODER

Giorgio Moroder was born in Italy in 1940 and relocated to Munich where he was to become one of the main architects of the Eurodisco sound. As well as his own music, his groundbreaking achievements were as part of the team behind Donna Summer. He was her principal producer and a regular collaborator on her songwriting. Among the most influential tracks this team produced with Summer are "I Feel Love", "Love To Love You Baby", "Our Love", "Lucky" and "Sunset People".  

He created hits with an array of other acts including "Call Me" (Blondie), "Fly Too High" (Janis Ian), Irene Cara ("Flashdance... What A Feeling") and Phil Oakey ("Together In Electric Dreams"). 

As well as earning an Oscar for scoring the film 'Midnight Express', Moroder has collected other Oscars for songs such as"Take My Breath Away" from 'Top Gun' and "Last Dance" from 'Thank God It's Friday'. 

Along with DJing around the globe, Moroder continues recording new music. His recent collaborations have included tracks with Britney Spears, Sia, Kylie Minogue and Charlie XCX.
