About Phil Oakey & Giorgio Moroder
Philip Oakey is an English composer, singer, songwriter and producer. He is best known as the lead singer, frontman and co-founder of the famous British synthpop band, The Human League. Giorgio Moroder is an Italian record producer, songwriter and performer, whose groundbreaking work with synthesizers during the 1970s and 1980s was a significant influence on new wave, techno and electronic music in general. In 1984 for the film Electric Dreams Oakey and Moroder provided the film theme song "Together in Electric Dreams". When later released as a single it would go on to become an international hit, actually eclipsing the film it was intended to promote. Ironically it would also become a bigger hit than some of Oakey’s Human League singles of the same period. In 1985 Oakey and Moroder would release the joint album "Philip Oakey & Giorgio Moroder" which would generate two single releases, “Be My Lover Now” and "Good-Bye Bad Times". Released in both the UK and USA these singles were not as successful as “Together in Electric Dreams” and the Oakey/Moroder partnership was effectively ended.
