Reviews & Discussion
While I'd agree that much of what he's done in the past 5 years has been really bad, it wasn't always that way. Listen to "Sweetly", "My Dimension" or his remix of 2 Culture In A Room - Android. These are all inspired moments; unique, powerful and beautiful in their own way.
I'd say one of the worst producers I've ever heard. Proud creator or perhaps ambassidor of the "Gino beat", Gigi's music can be found playing out of poorly modded Celica's and Civic's. Think Final Fantasy soundtrack at 160BPM with a vocodered voice. Simplistic and EXACTLY carbon copied tracks produced poorly with tinker toy sounds.
I think you should listen to the man's music regardless of preconceptions.
Enjoy the early classics like Noise Maker Theme, Marimba, Fly, Giallone and his remix of Android for what they are: First class Mediterranean Progressive with a large slice of dark trance.
But don't dismiss the more recent poppier sound, or you miss out on a feast of fun and catchy pop music.
Yes, that's right. Pop music. Listen with your heart, not with your too-cool-for-school ego...
