A low key, and often undersung figure in 1980s pop and R&B music, Nick Martinelli amassed hundreds of production credits in the post-disco creative explosion in 80s New York, where boogie, disco, latin freestyle, & street soul were hot and drum machines and synthesizers were the new kings. Over the course of his career, Martinelli's name was attached to a dizzying number of now cult artists, including Evelyn "Champagne" King, Loose Ends, Frankie Knuckles, Fat Larry's Band and more.
On this In Focus, take an hour long ride through blissful and pristine pop, produced by Nick Martinelli.
