Greatest Fun vinyl

Italy's Fun Fun helped define the sugar-rush sound of mid-80s Euro disco, pairing fizzy synth hooks with mannequin-fronted lip-sync routines and high-energy vocal cuts from singers like Antonella Pepe and Ivana Spagna. This archival collection charts their rise through continental clubland, anchored by the Ben Liebrand remix of 'Happy Station'-a fizzy, sample-chopped classic that became a fixture in European discos. Other standouts include the stomping neon throb of 'Give Me Your Love', the melodramatic flair of 'Baila Bolero', and the sleeker, Japanophile synth pop of 'Living in Japan'. Also featured is the 'Mega Hit Mix', a Dutch-style megamix by Martin Boer that stitches their biggest tracks into a hands-up medley of stabs, snares and ecstatic breakdowns. For all its plastic glamour, there's real craft here-this is pure Italo escapism with a polished studio touch.
