The Real Background Story:
ITALO DISCO "SLEAZE":
Background Soundtrack Music in 80s XXX Adult Videos πΌ
(How Italo Disco sometimes ended up, in American hardcore 80s porn video soundtracks)
Hardly ever discussed, but Italo Disco Instrumental / Dub mixes were featured pretty often in USA/Canadian 80s adult video films.
Home Video (Betamax / VHS) was introduced in North America in the late 70s. This new home technology quickly created a HUGE market for home adult films sold on video cassettes.
The quickest, cheapest and most profitable practice was for XXX film studios to use existing 70s "loops" π️ cinema porn films and make them available on home video for sale. πΌ
Most of the 70s "loops" porn films had no sound. Film producers needed many hundreds of hours of background instrumentals for the adult home video releases.
Nightclub DJs were already playing slowed down ITALO SLEAZE instrumental sets, mostly early morning sets, played for a few hours, before closing time.
These American and Canadian XXX Video productions πΌ would travel around the world, via sales and piracy.
Sometimes, for music lovers, more legendary for having a cool killer "unknown italo dub mix" soundtrack than for the onscreen action!
