GoGo's Music is a record label that produces mainly Eurobeat music exclusively for the Japanese record label AVEX.
It was founded officially on 9 May 2006 by Domino and Sandro Oliva, but we can safely say that it was formed on its own 10 years ago when Sandro Oliva and Domino were still an integral part of the record label ABeatC. An autonomous work team was established within the Rodgers studio headed by Mr. Oliva and Domino who tried to directly involve all the artists and singers with whom they were working: the GoGo Girls at the forefront, Lolita being another example, Mega NRG Man and Manuel, they all took part in what was happening.Domino and Sandro Oliva had understood the importance of involving the artist directly in each piece that he/she was to interpret; the artist felt he/she was heard and understood, involved in the writing of the lyrics and offering advice on melodies or harmonies, so that each interpretation reflected what the artist wanted to say or scream to the world.
The name GoGo's Music is a tribute to one of our creations: the GoGo Girls.
Mutual collaboration started right from the first pieces and as this worked well the two producers continued along this path, deeming that this was the right way in which to proceed. This led to memorable hits such as "My sweet banana", "One night in Arabia", "Let's go, c'mon" to name only a few. They are still up to date and each year we can still hear them on many Super Eurobeat lists.
Domino explains: "Unfortunately Rodger's studio policies no longer corresponded with ours and so we decided to physically leave the Dave Rodgers studio and create a new one that was right for us and for the artists we produce; because our artists not only sing but also collaborate in the production of their pieces."Domino and Sandro have chosen not to leave Contini/Rodgers as regards the Editions; in this way they have the possibility of also producing pieces for ABeatC Artists whom they are close to.
"Over the years - says Sandro - a small Eurobeat family was established with whom we get on, we discuss things, we argue, but above all we have fun; the Eurobeat genre is really fun, and if you have not yet done so, we recommend you take a look at our in-studio videos and you will see! The GoGo Girls are pure entertainment, but when they sing they drive me mad! Lolita looks at Domino's shoes and they spend hours talking about fashion... sometimes I reprimand them, and they go back to singing; but they complain straight away, they are also great fun!!!"
The record label is brand new but it has already produced some exceptional results: "Ready, steady go!" by Manuel was included in the compilations Super EuroBeat 177, SUPER GT 2007 and Super EuroBeat 179, "Stop the time tonight" by Lolita on Super EuroBeat 175 as well as "Go Go Where you wanna go go" by Domino and "Rock me" by Mega Nrg Man feat Kiko Loureiro and we must not forget the new arrivals: Betty Beat with "My heart goes boom boom boom" and "My Lucky Star" by Ester found on Super EuroBeat 178.
We can't wait for all the surprises that GoGo's Music has in store in the near future... We will discuss this shortly.
A message for the "euroboys" and "eurogirls" in Japan: write us in Japanese and we will answer in the same language.

Gogo's music は日本のAVEX社と独占契約を結んでいる主にユーロビートをプロデュースするレコード会社で、2006年5月9日、Domino と Sandro Oliva の意向で公式に誕生した。
実際はその10年程前に Sandro Oliva と Domino がまだ AbeatCレーベル で補佐的役割だった頃、自然に生まれ出てきたと言えるだろう。 Rodgers スタジオの内部で独立したあるワーキングチームが誕生した。それは制作するアーティストとシンガーが直接参加することを努めた Oliva と Domino が率いるチームである。まずは Gogo Girls、 Lorita、もっと例を挙げるなら Mega NRG Man Mega、 Manuel 皆彼らはそうしたチームでの共有者だった。Domino と Sandro Oliva はこれから先々にプレイされる楽曲で、アーティストの直接参加の重要さを感じた。それはアイディアをシェアして理解を深めることは、アーティストがそれぞれのプレイの中で世界に向けて言いたかったことや叫びたかったことを歌に書くときにメロディーやハーモニーにヒントを与えて効果的だから。
Gogo's music という名は私達の作品の捧げ物であり Gogo's Girls は、もうすでに初期の曲から相互的に共同制作してきた。2人のプロデューサーは常にこの方法で行動しながらうまくいったので進むべき道は正しかったと感じた。
こうしてほんの幾つか挙げても "My sweet banana", "One night in Arabia" , "Let's go, c'mon" のような記憶に残るヒットが生まれることになる。今も尚、現在進行中で多数の Super Eurobeat の中でその名を簡単に見つけることができる。
Domino と Sandro はこれらのエディションに関しては Contini&Rodgers から離れない道を選んだ。こうすることで AbeatC の愛着のあるアーティストにも曲をプロデュースできるチャンスがあるからだ。この数年間・・・サンドロが口をはさむ- 仲が良くって、討論しあって、でも何といっても皆で楽しめるユーロビートのスモールファミリーが誕生したんだ。ユーロビートっていうジャンルは本当に楽しい。もしまだだったらスタジオでの僕達のビデオをちょっと見るようにと勧めるよ。そしたらわかると思うよ! GoGo Girls は単に滑稽、だけど彼女達に歌わせると僕はもうなんだかわけわからなくなるくらい夢中になってしまうんだ!。 Lolita は Domino の靴を見て、ファッションの話で時間を潰し・・・時々僕が注意して、またみんなで歌い始める・・と、すぐまた文句言い合って、もう彼女達はただ単に滑稽!!!
レーベルは今生まれたばかりだけどもうすでにたくさんの最高級の作品を生み出している。 Manuel の "Ready steady go!" は、 Super EuroBeat 177 、 SUPER GT 2007 、 Super EuroBeat 179 のコンピレーションに、 Lolita の "Stop the time tonight" は Super EuroBeat 175 に Domino の "Go Go Where you wanna go go" と Mega Nrg Man feat Kiko Loureiro の "Rock me" と一緒に入っている。そして Super EuroBeat 178 に入っている新しい原動力の Betty Beat "My heart goes boom boom boom" と Ester の "My Lucky Star" もどうぞお忘れなく!
後は GoGo's Music がもうすぐ作り出すビックサプライズをただ待つのみ・・・歴史は語られるだろう。

Sandro Oliva was born in Mantova during the 1970's, when light music and pop was in full swing. From the time he was very young he was attracted by everything that made sound (record players, radio, musical instruments, etc...). When he was seven years old he played the drums in a band; he later started paying guitar.
He set up various bands with his friends but the real challenge came when he was 13 and started to play bass guitar; he met 'real' musicians and he started a real band: 'CONTRASTO'. With 'CONTRASTO' Sandro had the opportunity of having his first experience in a recording studio where he recorded a brand new song that was unexpectedly successful; it was transmitted continuously by all the local radio stations. The group changed over the years: musicians changed and Sandro set up the most important 'dance' cover-band in Italy: 'UBI MAJOR'. Their single 'Just a Moment' was released in 1982 published by the record company DISCO MAGIC who decided to use the pseudonym 'LIQUID MASK'.A few months from the release of the groups' single the band broke up due to personal reasons and Sandro Oliva decided to continue with his solo career. His infinite love for music led him to produce many songs, including the singles: 'You are'nt fall in love' by Mark Tower, 'A Y O Mexico' by Trias and 'The rose of Tokyo' by City-O. In March 1984 Sandro Oliva produced and wrote Ken Laszlo's first single 'Hey Hey Guy' for the record company 'Memory Records'. The record would be very successful throughout the world, especially in France where the producer, together with 'Memory Rec' signed an exclusive contract with the well-known record company 'Skorpio Records'. The song 'Tonight' was released in 1986, produced by Sandro Oliva and written in collaboration with Gino Caria; this was followed in 1987 by 'Red Man' and in 1989 by 'I love You', always with Caria.
Nonetheless Sandro Oliva's work as a producer was not limited to the record company Memory Records. He met Mauro Farina and Giuliano Crivellente around this time and started working with them as a sound engineer at Factory Sound Studios. In 1984 he met Giacomo Maiolini, at that time the owner of Time Records and Power Records.
In collaboration with different writers Sandro composed various songs published under the Time label, these include: Magika 'I Know Magika', Tommy Kerisch 'Speedy Life', Alesis 'Steppin' Up', DeNiro 'Italian Boy', etc..
In these years he also did some important work for Walt Disney and also worked with important musicians such as Jennifer Batten, Patrick Rondat, Kiko Loureiro, Steve Lukather...
In February 2006 Sandro Oliva decided to separate his production from that of A-Beat-C and he set up, together with Alessandra Gatti (Domino), a new label 'GOGO'S MUSIC'... the rest, as they say, is history...
