The album was compiled by DJ and record company executive Stuart Paterson. Listen to a mini mix of tracks from ‘Elektro Diskow’ below.
The birth of electro music has its origins in the US club scene of the early ‘80s, following on from the disco era of the previous decade. Its popularity quickly spread to the other side of the Atlantic, influencing a whole host of new genres and artists along the way.
