Fabio Palermo thearchives.ptbo@gmail.com
After collecting music for more than 40 years, I’ve finally decided it’s time to open the vault. The Archives is my chance to share the sounds that shaped me — a mixed collection of limited-edition white-label promos, underground electronic gems, and rare cuts spanning from the early ’80s through the ’90s, with intentional touchpoints into each era of the 2000s. Each episode digs into the stories behind the tracks, the sounds, the evolution of the scenes they came from, and the moments in time that made them unforgettable. This is a journey through decades of electronic music history, from dusty crates to the airwaves — curated, contextualized, and brought to life!
