Topo & Roby

Italian Synthpop Duo

In this Italo Disco project, "Roby" was represented by vocalist and stage performer Simona Zanini, and "Topo" was a robot. The music was actually produced and performed by Aldo Martinelli and Fabrizio Gatto, with Zanini's vocals and percussion by Franco Di Trani. Other Martinelli-Gatto-Zanini collaborations included Martinelli, Doctor's Cat, and Raggio Di Luna. Set On Fire (TRD 1083) was sung by Antonella Pepe on Time Records.
