Pingo® ItaloMix on Spotify!

Yes, Spotify is actually a difficult place to find good Italo Disco on. I wish I could continue running the SouthPole Radio Italo Disco station – but sadly, I can’t. But, today we created the Pingo® ItaloMix – a great playlist with our own favourite hits. The playlist is three and a half hour long (!) and focus has been on great hits and good music.

Sadly,Spotify doesn’t have any tracks from Diana Est, Hugh Bullen, Savage, Baby’s Gang, Fake and other cool Italo artists, and some (like Scotch) only have a few nice tunes up. Hopefully, that will change in the future. For now, I hope that the Pingo® ItaloMix will be a nice mix for all of you out there who wants to listen to great quality italo disco!

If you like it – or if you want us to update the playlist with some other cool songs you’ve found – please let us know by leaving a comment!

Mike Rembis has launched the Clearwater Film Festival 2010. Be sure to submit your film to the festival for the early deadline.

You can submit your film via the website or via Withoutabox.

You can now buy the complete album “Antarctica” by Pingo® on Last.fm, as downloadable MP3-files. If you don’t have Spotify, this is a great opportunity to listen – free – to the tunes from the “Antarctica” album and then buy the tunes you like. You can also download the FREE MP3 “Manthel”!

“Antarctica” is a clean and neat collection of tunes created by Pingo® during 1999-2009. The really noisy stuff hasn’t been released on this album, and there are some tunes that are more dance-like – not Italo Disco, sadly, but more of a club theme. Most of the songs are trance/techno influenced, but there are some that are more to the synth/hard body type of genre too.

If you like the album, please comment and publish your own review! If you want to link to us, please do so – check the Link page for more information.

Pingo® is working on his next album, and has finished two tunes as well as the cover art. The album will consist of approximatly 12-15 songs and be me more noisy than “Antarctica”. This album will of course also be released on Spotify.

No release date yet.

Merry Christmas & Happy New 2010 (I probably won’t have time to update until next year).

Pingo® today released his first fantasy card game through his own Xemytica Card Game System. Check the official site (Xemytica.com) for more information, and buy the Starter Kit for Fate of Heroes right away!

I keep updating the site. Now we have ads and links. Yes, I know, not exactly super-cool content – but it helps pay for bandwidth and other fees.

I am working on the next video release as well, so that will be up on YouTube soon – at least before new years, I hope. The old video has approx 40-50 views on YouTube now, which I think is kind of neat, since it hasn’t been advertised or anything, and only been up for 3 weeks.

We added the album Antarctica by Pingo® on Last.fm.

This is perfect for you who don’t have Spotify. Sadly, the scrobbler-function does not work properly,since there is another band already registered on Last.fm with the same name.

On Last.fm there is also one of the songs released for FREE download.
We will add our videos to Last.fm too in the near future, as well as on the YouTube channel.

The Peace’ new album is a strong and tight piece of work. Production is crisp and true to the sound. I especially like the softness of the lyrics, how important this band takes their own songs. I enjoyed most of the tunes, even though I usually don’t listen to this genre.

Strange might be my favourite here, but I’m sure there’s a song for every mood.

High production qualities together with such professional artists always proves to be a great combination.

Listen free to some samples here, and buy it directly online from the Official Site: Hip Folk Inc.

SouthPole Radio is now a Record Label!

We couldn’t go on with free streaming Italo Disco radio anymore. Costs was one thing (thanks to all of you who contributed over the years!), but competition and time was other factors. Today you can listen to almost any Italo Disco through services like Spotify.

We released our first album “Antarctica”, by Pingo®, exclusivly on Spotify the 28:th of November 2009.

Listen to it free on Spotify, or watch the first video on YouTube!

SouthPole Radio will release more albums during 2010.
