Italo disco encompasses much of the dance music output in Europe during the 1980s. It is one of the world's first forms of mostly electronic dance music and evolved during the late 1970s and early 1980s in Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and other parts of Europe. Italo disco's futuristic, spacey sound was effected by synthesizers, drum machines and vocoders.

The term "Italo disco" originates from the 1983 Italo Boot Mix series, a megamix featuring Italian and German disco music, by Bernhard Mikulski, the founder of German-based ZYX Music. Prior to 1983, the music was called Euro-disco.

The presenters of the Italian music show Discoring (produced by RAI) usually referred to Italo disco tracks as "rock elettronico" (electronic rock) or &"balli da discoteca" (disco dance) before the term "italo disco" came into existence.
