July 24, 1977 –
Donna Summer’s single I Feel Love, with producer Giorgio Moroder reached No. #1 on the Billboard Charts on this date.
I Feel Love is an electronic music landmark, with a track built entirely on a Moog synthesizer. Giorgio Moroder, a leading light in the genre and a longtime collaborator with Donna Summer, came up with the music. His associate, Pete Bellotte, produced the track with him and wrote the lyrics with Summer. Moroder and Bellotte are responsible for most of Summer’s early disco hits.
