Venice native Bottin makes his Forza debut on November 7th for a much anticipated set of Horror Disco, Italo, Cosmic, House, Space disco and funk rarities. A reckless blend of retro-futuristic sounds and contemporary electronica that always sets the dance floor on fire. Bottin’s seminal releases include “Fondamente Nove” on Eskimo Records (2008) and “No Static” for US label Italians Do It Better (2009), now considered classics of the nu disco genre.

He soon moved to the forefront of the contemporary electronic disco scene with his concept album "Horror Disco” on Bearfunk Records UK, which garnered critical praise for its dashing display of all of Italo’s delights without the pastiche. The album’s title may conjure up images of a Goblin inspired trip through Dario Argento horror movie nostalgia, but in actuality it is filled with thick, Moroder-esque basslines that inspire dancing rather than dread.

In 2010 Bottin released on Eskimo Recordings with Galli (with fellow Italian producer Rodion) in which the signature italo-disco approach gradually blends into a housed-up dancefloor anthem. Shortly after, Nang Records releases “Discoursive Diversions”, a collection of remixes produced by Bottin on commission by artists like Lindstrom, In Flagranti, Tosca and many more.

After releasing an album as Tinpong together with vocalist OY (Nang UK) and a string of singles on his own imprint TIN, Bottin released his full length "Punica Fides" on Bear Funk in which Bottin's italo and contemporary disco sound yields to darker, throbbing electronica. This new work revolves around the concepts of treachery and falsehood and includes a collaboration with Steve Strange of Visage and Berlin's Lavinia Claws.
