Geoff the K.I.D.

Geoff Bastow produced his K.I.D. project in the early 80s. He had been a part of other projects before that, including working with Anthony Monn on Amanda Lear releases, and Giorgio Moroder, Pete Bellotte (and Thor Baldursson) by playing guitar on a few Donna Summer releases, appearing on Munich Machine LPs, arranging and more. And he wrote a song on an Elton John album.

I really like his K.I.D. project. The songs are gooooood blend of Disco, Hi-NRG and Italo Disco, and the production is thick and juicy. Mm mm mmmm.

Here are two good ones:

"I wanna piece of the action,
it's driving me to distraction."

Released in 1982, and sounds rather timeless to me.

K.I.D. - I Wanna Piece Of The Action

Released in 1981, it's a sweet Disco arpeggio-roller. I love the break at 2:21, and how the song slowly builds up again. Nice nice nice.

K.I.D. - Don't Stop
Listen / Buy: GEMM / eBay / Amazon.com


I love how both of these tracks could've been produced any time after 1978. Timeless quality.
