I'll start here by adding a daft retro-eurodisco song+video made with my boyfriend on a sunny Sunday in September...
Here is a fictional history of "Macho Macho"
This is the debut single, Macho Macho Playa, from retro-eurodisco duo 'Macho Macho'. Macho Macho consist of Fabio Guglio and Arnold Morris, who met on Hunstanton beach in 1984 when they were both 12 years old. Their friendship was cemented when Arnold asked Fabio what his favourite Prince song was, and Fabio turned to Arnold and answered with one word.
"Sexuality."
With that a deep connection was formed. Their relationship was platonic, but although they were never lovers, their connection was a mystical and sexual bond.
They also agreed that their favourite Prince album was "Controversy" and as they grew older, their love of disco music grew, as did their sense of alienation in the Norfolk education system. Arnold left school early and became a youth worker at a local radio station and Fabio went on to work for the Fenland tourist board, running workshops on marsh grass identification. They were reunited in 2011 when they bumped into each other at a birdwatching talk.
After sorting out some creative differences as to whether or not the song should have a strong environmental message, they resolved to pursue their childhood dreams of music and recorded the music and video for Macho Macho Playa on one sunny Sunday.
