Thanks to Al Coury for the "London Trip" Special Thanks to Howard Smiley of Palm Music Midney who was among the principal architects of the Eurodisco sound and one of the first to exploit the full potential of 48-track recording, his trademark blend of strings, horn and percussion created a deep, lush sound. Born in Russia, Midney is a classically trained composer who started out writing film scores; turning to disco, however, he worked under a variety of names including Caress, Beautiful Bend, the USA/European Connection, Masquerade, Double Discovery, Companion and Festival, producing a large body of work from his New York City studio ERAS recording.[2] Midney was born in Moscow to a conductor and pianist father and classical singer mother. He studied classical composition and clarinet also teaching himself to play saxophone.[1]In 1964 he defected from the USSR via the US embassy in Japan.[2] Midney's main reason for leaving the USSR was the censorship of art.[3] After arriving in New York City, he formed The Russian Jazz Quartet with whom he recorded an album for Impulse Records.[2] In the 1960s, Midney married Tania Armour from the Armour & Company family.[4]Later, Midney became a prolific composer and producer of disco music although he rarely was credited under his own name.[5] Using guises such as USA-European Connection, Masquerade, Double Discovery, Caress, Companion and Festival, Midney produced a large body of disco music. He is recognised as being among the first producers to take full advantage of 48-track recording and one of the creators of the Eurodisco genre.[6]Describing his disco music, critics Alan Jones and Jussi Kantonen wrote:On the Mount Olympus of disco there are numerous gods but there is only one Zeus and his name is Boris Midney. He's the Stephen Sondheim, David Hockney and Stanley Kubric of the disco genre all rolled into one.[7]In 1999 Midney released Trancetter, a progressive trance album.[6]
