Live at Robert Johnson is proud to announce a new bounce to the ounce. Italian runaway and Berlin resident Massimiliano Pagliara gives us some 12-inch „Toxic Love“. After his brillant Balihu release „Transmission Florales“ and some work for the Belgian disco major Eskimo, „Toxic Love“ further cements his love for old synthies, gentle drum machine sounds and textures that are clearly influenced by pop muzik. In our today's world that is dominated by quick laptop shots, Pagliara takes his time to actually write music on and with some dusty intruments. At least, we love to think so. The four songs (yes, they are) on his to our knowledge second-ever Maxisingle capture late night love sickness, broken heart feelings, bittersweet romantic feelings and futuristic disco fantasies. Featuring the microphone skills of Molly Nilsson and Jules Etienne, this stuff wouldn't sound out of place during a Chromatics' concert or under a mirror ball near you. He's Italian and he's disco, whether this makes it Italo-Disco is up to you. We just hope Massimiliano will “never go away…away…away…”
