This is what I meant when noting, purely as conjecture, that maybe Glass Candy echoes a creepy backbeat by Kano in its track "Etheric Device." It's almost like I don't verification I just like the idea. Kano of course are kings in Italo Disco, a lost subgenre of dance music that has been creeping into the contemporary electro lexicon lately. It's "Another Life." Don't worry about the girls in the plastic-bag cages or if Glen White has trouble looking into the camera. The man has moves, the jam sizzles.
Italo is cousins to the HI-NRG culture that is still celebrated, religiously, at the legendary Patrick Miller nightclub in Roma and at one-night masivos in convention halls in rougher areas of the capital.
