Retro/Grade

Since 2005, Serge Santiago and Tom Neville have been slowly cooking a career-defining album... What came out of the studio sessions was a perfect modern day Italo/Disco sound, straight off the bat...

This was the birth of the group Retro/Grade.

Their first single MODA, released on limited edition vinyl in September 2009, has received support from the likes of Erol Alkan, Simian Mobile Disco, A-Trak, Annie Mac, Kissy Sellout, Pete Tong, Riton, Trevor Jackson, Pedro Winter, DJ Mehdi, Ewan Pearson, Brodinski, Seth Troxler and many more...

Next up was ZOID, released November 2009, followed by Escape Sequence in October 2010, with the album forthcoming in 2010. Inspiration taken from a period between disco and house - the grey zone where synths were first used with disco and when drum machines were used to keep a track in time. Retro/Grade's sound is a modern day Italo Disco...
