1983 !!! 119 BPM
Fun Fun are an Italian Italo disco band formed in 1983. Their hits included “Colour My Love“ and “Baila Bolero“.
Producers Dario Raimondi and Alvaro Ugolini teamed up with studio vocalists Antonella Pepe, Angela Parisi and Ivana Spagna to create Fun Fun, a band with a bouncy, high-energy, dancefloor-friendly sound. Their first release, 1983’s “Happy Station“, was successful in Italy and other parts of Europe thanks to several extended mixes, including the most well-known “Scratch“ version. “Happy Station“ reached the number one spot in the South African charts. It was also popular in the Chicago House Dance scene and was played by DJs on WBMX.
Upon receiving invitations for live performances, Raimondi and Ugolini decided to use models for Fun Fun’s public image rather than the vocalists themselves, a common tactic in the European dance music scene already deployed by producers like Frank Farian. Have Fun!
