Today I learned that this guy who had at least 4 super-hits here in USSR during the 80's is apparently not that well known even in his home country of Italy, not in most of west Europe and absolutely unknown in English-speaking countries.

I'm sure almost anyone in post-USSR and Eastern Europe remember this song.

He was one of the early Italo Disco producers starting in 1983 when he produced the music and sang it himself. Later he reinvented himself as a producer of Eurodance projects, most notably British rapper Ice MC. He was also an executive producer of the international hit Corona - Rhythm of the Night.

I never had a console during my childhood in the 90's so now it's the time to recreate the past that never was. Here's what I collected so far:

1. Some Chinese bootlegs from the 90's

2. More Chinese or Taiwanese bootlegs

3. Some real Japanese Famicom games

4. Cartridges produced in Russia in late 90's, including Battleship - a game made by a Russian programmer in 1996

5. Some modern homebrew cartridges - two modern games, one Zelda romhack and a Shenzhen Nanjing Zelda game - The Minish Cap

6. My special Final Fantasy collection where all the games are from different sources: one a modern Russian reproduction, one Chinese bootleg, one Japanese original, and a Shenzhen Nanjing game in Russian
