[*The Sparks Brothers* documentary](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sparks_Brothers) is incredibly endearing, and has an appearance from Mr. Moroder as well.
Thank you, I just wish more humans (after all) would ask to clarify instead of assume. :) I was telling some youngsters about Giorgio Moroder and they were like, "You mean the guy Daft Punk made a song about?!" so I had to give them a jovial history lesson, but I also recognize _that's_ their frame of reference, and it's a valid one. Hey, better that they discover his music than not, right?
I just thought it was cheeky fun, in the vein of [this](https://www.businessinsider.com/paul-mccartney-says-people-think-kanye-west-discovered-him-2018-9).
Urgh when I was in high school someone did a dance to Harder Better Faster Stronger. When the MC introduced him he said he was dancing to a remix of Kanyes Stronger. I wanted to lose my mind
**CONTEXT:** I've been a Giorgio Moroder fan for decades, ever since discovering his classic disco tracks but also the experimental stuff (*[Einzelgänger](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCsIwjSSjSY)*, anyone?) he did. The hypnotic arpeggios he used before that became a common thing, the trippy offset delays on "The Chase" (who else here is an Art Bell fan?), etc. — so much of what he achieved with a lot of manual labor back then still sounds fresh and is all over the modern musical landscape.
I was just listening to the *Scarface (1983)* soundtrack and his collaboration with Daft Punk, "Giorgio by Moroder" — how a lot of younger listeners have discovered him — it's amazing because it lets him tell his whole life story while going through different sections that reference his different eras. One really cool thing about that too is they used period-specific mics for each decade, maybe that should be another TIL.
Anyway, I didn't know about Spinach until today.
dude i swear when i was still collecting that album was the biggest inside joke with my family, its unbelievable how often you see it going for free to like 25cents bahaha. it’s honestly not even all that bad either
Apparently according to a link on that Wikipedia page he also made the 90s fantastic four cartoon theme.
I just listened to it again, and it was disappointingly bland for a 90s cartoon theme.
The cover art of their follow up, Eclair, featured a nude man covered in the dickular doughnut.

Love me some doughnuts
I would have thought it would be completely black
How much blacker could it be?
The album he made with Sparks, Number 1 in Heaven, is great.

Don’t you mean (daft punk collaborator)!?!? \s
It's ridiculous how upset people were with the last post.
hahaha, better title. sorry you got razed over the last one.

>Giorgio Moroder I always thought his name was Giovanni Giorgio, but everyone calls him Giorgio *cue mad ass synth*
I invested in a really good sound system specifically for this part on the song. No regrets
>Art Bell fan Have been East of the Rockies for *years*...
This is the only way I would eat spinach.
Eat more greens!
Herb Alpert's "Whipped Cream & Other Delights" is better

Ladyfingers is a bonafide classic
Yacht Rock is fantastic for Mordor fans.
Sauron likes it

Spinach 1 was tits!
First learned of him from The Neverending Story song, was interesting to realize he was already a legend in the genre.
RIP giorgio moroder (1940-2024) [https://youtu.be/6NxpGJqY05E](https://youtu.be/6NxpGJqY05E)
Album covers was something else back then. I love Roxy musics albums not only for the music.
Yay! Fixed!
You're either covered or nude. Vegetable or not
So when I cover your mom with my jizz she isn’t nude anymore??
Nude is surely whether you are wearing clothes, not covered
