At its peak in the mid-70s, Italy’s Baia Degli Angeli was the most glamorous and musically adventurous nightclub in Europe, a rival to New York's Studio 54. Spread over four floors, the focus of the club's over-the-top interior was the moving DJ booth – located inside a glass elevator – where Claudio Rispoli, AKA Moz-Art, hypnotized clubbers with an eclectic selection of disco hits, soul, reggae, Afrobeat and even library music. The off-kilter DJing style he perfected alongside fellow Baia DJ Daniele Baldelli was dubbed “cosmic disco”. As he tells us in this lecture from the 2004 Red Bull Music Academy, creating the perfect night out is “something you don't do for money.”
