Reference 80 is a comprehensive compilation by Italian duo Righeira, capturing the essential highlights of their distinctive blend of Italo-Disco, synth-driven pop, and playful Europop aesthetics. Known for their international hit “Vamos A La Playa,” Righeira became one of the defining acts of the 1980s European electronic music scene, and this collection showcases the evolution of their sound across original hits, extended mixes, and lesser-known album cuts. The selection emphasizes their signature fusion of catchy melodies, rhythmic electronic production, and ironic lyrical themes that often contrast upbeat music with unconventional subject matter. Across nearly 80 minutes of music, the compilation balances radio-friendly versions with extended dance mixes, reflecting both commercial appeal and club-oriented production styles of the era. This release serves as both an introduction for new listeners and a nostalgic archive for long-time fans of Italo-Disco and synth-pop culture.

Released in 2016, "Italo Disco: Instrumental Versions" is a comprehensive double-disc compilation dedicated to the instrumental side of the iconic Italo Disco movement. Curated by Rare80 Records, the collection highlights the genre’s signature blend of melodic synth lines, rhythmic electronic arrangements, and dancefloor-oriented production, stripped of vocals to emphasize its musical structure and atmosphere. Spanning a wide selection of classic and influential artists from the Italo Disco era, the album showcases how strong composition and electronic instrumentation alone can carry emotion, energy, and nostalgia. The tracks feature lush synthesizers, steady drum machine patterns, and layered arrangements that define the aesthetic of 1980s European dance music. Across both discs, the compilation maintains a consistent retro-futuristic mood, moving between romantic, energetic, and atmospheric soundscapes. "Italo Disco: Instrumental Versions" serves as both a tribute and a detailed exploration of the genre’s instrumental foundations, offering listeners a pure, uninterrupted focus on its melodic and production qualities.
