HEAR BILLY IN THE MIX
Would you like some '70s disco? Even with live vocals or live saxophone? Prefer solid stomping indie dance? Fancy '80s italo disco & HiNRG? '80s boogie? '80s new wave? Or an obscure combination of all of that? What, house?? Ever been to a jam session that is actually nice to listen and dance to? There's even more in the cloud of sound.

RECORD RELEASES
The Billy Idle & Mr. Fonk vinyl EP and the collaboration with Local Suicide on the charity compilation for KitKat can be obtained from the DISCO BIZARRE record label! Billy is also involved in the releases of a band called YES AND THE SUN.

STORY
Billy is a Berliner who grew up in Italy. DJing was such a big deal in Italy in his childhood, they even named a radio station that way. He learned beatmatching vinyls at the age of 16. His mum was into Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream while his dad preferred Giorgio Moroder and Donna Summer. Italo disco, HiNRG and a dig into progressive rock were great influences into his music skills and choices. Berlin then added techno and electro. Despite doing music production and occasional parties all his life, Billy started taking music business seriously only quite recently, in 2018.
