Moana Pozzi – Dance Hits

Moana Pozzi was primarily a pornographic actor, but during the 1980s and early 90s also notched up a number of club and crossover hits in her native Italy. This 12″ from Mondo Groove brings together her three most sought-after cuts, adding in an extra unreleased treat in the shape of ‘Bonita’, a breezy-and-sleazy house-not-house number of the Balearic kind that was apparently a firm favourite in her ‘spicy’ live shows. Perhaps the best known of the included classic cuts is ‘Supermacho (Extended)’, where Pozzi’s sleazy and dead-eyed vocals rise above a throbbing Italo-disco groove and chiming melodies. Elsewhere, ‘Impulso Di Sesso’ is a more dubbed-out and dreamy chunk of eccentric Italo-disco, while ‘Let’s Dance’ is a synth-sporting, Madonna-influenced synth-pop treat.
