Disco Inferno

Disco Inferno were an English experimental/post-rock band formed in Essex in the late 1980s and led by Ian Crause. They are best known for the sample-heavy album D.I. Go Pop and for pioneering dense, collage-like approaches to rock music; they received critical praise but limited commercial success and disbanded in the mid-1990s.

The band integrated samplers and a MIDI guitar into their live setup and used film clips, ambient sounds and other samples as core elements of their music. Daniel Gish was an early keyboardist who left to play with Bark Psychosis. Reviews and retrospectives note their influence on later experimental pop acts, with specific references in the provided review to Animal Collective and MGMT.
