At this moment I want nothing more than to see a room full of people dancing to this song. I want to see them serious at the racing, arpeggiated Italo-tech bassline and - anticipating brutality - half-dreading the full drop. Then I want to see them laughing in hysterical relief and wagging their fingers at each other in time with the cheeky, squeaky 303 acid-house synth motif. Robotnick's a strange case - he first started making music 25 years ago and went seminal with the release of 1983's "Problèmes d'Amour", an Italo-disco track with an easy urbanity about it that appealed to the aspirant Europhile DJs who'd eventually turn Chicago and New York clublands into dance meccas. "Obsession For The Disco Freaks" comes from an Italo original who naturally understands the push and pull between cheesy self-parody and discotheque momentum that's necessary for dancefloor success. So succeed!
