"Hush (Remix)" by Marimba Tree

from 12"

Good genre of the day! Here's a track to remind 1 of the many faces of Italo. This down tempo, groovy vocal track (it's a song) wouldn't sound that of place on Japan circa Tin Drum...
BTW This also doubles up as my token Halloween post.

"The Duke Arrives - The Barricade/The President At The Train" by John Carpenter/Alan Howarth (MARIO BONCALDO)

from 12"

Original edit for Italian discos from Escape From New York OST.
Long duration allows for plenty of suspense (especially love the crescendo at 5:29), this thing keeps growing, growing, shrinking etc..
Play it loud, it's good for the club, too. Tougher than a leather man!

"Show Me Yours" by Corruption

from Prime Cuts 1 - The Double Dance Album

Wild & loose early Hi-NRG with a kinda new wave edge. This 1 never got a proper 12" release so find it on an IMPORTE/12 comp or Disconet.

"Din-Don (Instrumental)" by EVO

from 12"

Funky italo from same producer of famous track "Spacer Woman". This one has a hot bassline, magic arpeggio and big disco ball sound.

Normally I'm not a funky person, but when i hear the "din don din don din don" for first time.. well...

"Light" by Giusy Ravizza

from 7"

Great slightly insane vocal and hot Tiki production........
This version from my 7"
I hope you enjoy!

"You Inspire Me" by Phantomband

from Phantomband

This breezy number has been totally ruling lately. Odd vocal delivery (+ even more so odd/bad lyrics) that somehow really pull it off for me.

"Updated" by Raven Kane & Klaus Netzle

from Silicon Valley

the good parts of this album have totally been ruling this week. especially this one. watch out though it's really addictive!!

"The Snark (at 45)" by Bernard Szajner

from Brute Reason

loving the duel bass action + the steve reich-ish(?) saxophone parts. + ofcourse the brain melting synth overload

"Tanze Im Regen" by Conrad Schnitzler

from Con 3

Doesn't really do anything for 4 and a half minutes but doesn't really bother me when it sounds this nice. Reeeeelax

"Good Ole Days" by Raven Kane & Klaus Netzle

from Sillicon Valley

TOTD. Klaus Netzle of Vc-People fame!
