"Virgo Blaktro and the Movie Disco" is an album by Felix da Housecat, his first studio album since "Devin Dazzle & the Neon Fever" in 2004. It was released on October 2, 2007 on Nettwerk Records. The album spans several musical genres including electronic, house music, funk, soul and pop. It was recorded in Barcelona and Antwerp and like "Devin Dazzle" it is a concept album; this one is centered on the revival of 1970s and 1980s black music.

Felix da Housecat explained the inspiration for the album:

"Future Calls the Dawn" and "Sweet Frosti" were released together as a single prior to the album's release. The music video for "Like Something 4 Porno!" is available to view on Felix da Housecat's official MySpace page.
