Time Traveling: AGO :: dipped in dollars

Chief and I happened upon a great slice of Italo-disco this past week that encapsulates some of the genre’s best elements. Agostina Presta’s (a.k.a. AGO) 1982 boogie record “For You” is hard to find, but is a must listen for any nu-disco/electro-funk fanatics out there. While AGO is more famous for some of his later work, this album showcases a much more organic and cohesive body of work. From start to finish he envelopes a set of catchy, simply arranged tracks in a delightful array of crisp, clear, and punchy production techniques. Here is a video to the album’s opening track, and you can check out some more of our favorites below.

WHO WE ARE

Dipped in Dollars (D.I.D.) is the brainchild of Chief and Danger. While attending a crazy liberal arts college in Vermont, we realized our mutual love of righteous dance music, art, and the people behind them. Along the way we were joined by Crimson and B.Darko. D.I.D. exists to share this love with you and hopefully turn you on to something new.

This site exists to promote artists, if you hear something you like, think about throwing the artist(s) a few dollars, buy an album, go to a concert, show them you care. If any artists or official people want us to take any of our links down, just shoot us an email and we'll take care of it.

If you wish to contact the team, send mail to did@dippedindollars.com or for individual addresses, check here. (But please not both, duplicates are a drag)
