Discomagic Records was once the largest Italo disco / house / dance record label in Italy. It spawned a large number of sub-labels from the early 1980s to the early 1990s and it set the standards for an entire genre of music. It was run by Severo Lombardoni from 1982 to 1997.

With S.r.I as its initial legal form, the company changed its legal form to S.p.A. in 1994, and to S.a.S. in 1995. Due to financial problems, Discomagic ceased its operations in 1997. Lombardoni sold the company to Bernhard Mikulski's ZYX Music. Meanwhile, its sublabels owned by Mauro Farina[clarification needed] were brought into his company, SAIFAM. Dance World Attack[non sequitur] was sold to Sony Music in 1999 and still exists today.
