Bottin (Guglielmo Bottin, born 1977) is an Italian composer, producer, DJ and music scholar, based in Venice, Italy.[1]

His tracks have a clear italo disco and retro-futurist electronic music influences.[2] Before moving to contemporary space disco, he was signed to Italians Do It Better by Johnny Jewel via MySpace in 2008.[3] Bottin was also part of the early synthwave scene playing at Valerie Collective parties and producing remixes for Jupiter.[4]

In 2009 he released Horror Disco, a concept album that fused nu disco, cosmic disco and Italian giallo movies soundtracks.[5] In 2014, he collaborated with Steve Strange and Visage on the song Poison Within.[6] Bottin recently contributed to the soundtrack of Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon by Ana Lily Amirpour.[7]
