This fantastically learned article explains how Giorgio Moroder invented the holy trinity of dance music:
In 1975, Moroder's label boss, Neil Bogart, played a copy of 'Love to Love You Baby' at a party at his house. The crowd demanded to hear it four times in a row, so he called Giorgio at 3am and ordered a 20 minute long version. The extended remix was born
That track, and more obviously 'I Feel Love', had a 4/4 kick drum, from a tape loop of a real drummer. The rhythm was much simpler than funk or disco, so white people (and even German/Italians with moustaches) could dance to it. Four-to-the-floor was born
"I Feel Love" was entirely electronic, and it was a 125bpm club record with a black woman singing over the top. House music was born (sort of) CLICK FOR PART 3

Nice article, but there's a glaring error: no way was the 606 drum machine released in 1975, as implied in the section about "Love to Love You". I remember when it came out in the early 80s.
Yes, I think the bloke must have meant the TR-66: http://www.vintagesynth.org/roland/tr66.shtml which did come out on 1975(I knew the Sound on Sound history of Roland would come in handy) But when I listen to 'Love to Love You', I can't hear any drum machine at all, at least not on the 4 minute version I have. The first programmable roland drum machine was the CR78: http://www.vintagesynth.org/roland/cr78.shtml from 1978, although I guess you could use a modular synth and a sequencer to make drum patterns if you wanted.
The bass drum in 'I feel love' was played live by Keith Forsey - who went on to produce Billy Idol (Rebel Yell, etc). Read that in an interview with Sparks.
Nice Blog. I will continue reading........................
Tip For All Bloggers:
If I can sum up in three words how anyone or any website can totally "DOMINATE" the search engines and get to the very "TOP" of the search engines is: blogs, links, and content, period. That's all it takes. But you need "LOTS" of blogs, links and content.......................MajorEnterprise, Carael Knight
