Profile: I Discovered electronic music a long time ago. A great life experience and an increasing loving feeling for it since.
In my opinion, trying to keep a good balance between old & new is the key. Be open for the unknown, it could be magic..
One day I heared somebody saying:
"Real gold can't be touched, or even seen, it has to be listened and felt with your heart".
In my opinion, these little words are really what it is all about!
Hope the vinyl will survive this digital revolution. We all know, some evolution is necessary and it certainly opens lots of doors, but some tangible charmes are really irreplaceable. Our black gold is certainly one of them..
Enjoy life & music

Messalina (4) - Take Me To Mudbone - 11-Oct-09 09:12 AM
It's rare to find records where every single song is a killer these days. Lucci keeps suprising me on Messalina. That label is just wow! This fourth in a row is again a sublime release. 'Take Me To The Mudbone' cleverly mix a latin Santana edit with dubbed vocal elements of the '89 classic 'Take Me Away' from Jeff Mills/True Faith into a deep 10 minutes long 'chef-d'œuvre' On the back Lucci chooses to edit the big Paradise Garage classic "Cream" by Bionic Boogie's Gregg Diamond. Cutting the best parts of the song to rework it, it became a wonderfull sexy disco groover. This will heat the dancefloor up.. A must have! This side ends with a blissed out edit of Fleetwood Mac's forgotton 'Brown Eyes'. A classic from there '79 Tusk LP on Warner Bros Records.
Revenge, The (2) - Night Flight / Unfinished Edits Are Out Of My Hands / Savin' The Day - 11-Oct-09 08:11 AM
What a brilliant record again from Clark Graeme. A big part of his magic is certainly his choice of reworking those specific songs, but man the way he does it every time is truly amazing. "Night Flight" gives us a very smooth edited version of Stevie Wonder's fantastic "Love Light in Flight". What a vibe.. A long and very interesting build up ending in the warm vocals. Hearing it for the very first time, I just lost it! A masterpiece. On the B-side you get a very surprising edit of the catchy Ghostbusters "Savin the day" soundtrack by Alesi. A truly killer, this will rock your dancefloor! Again a very smooth edit that takes just a little time to reach his "boom" point, but when it gets there, it just blows me away. It tooks me some time to get used to the chorus at the break. I guess that was a struggling point on this edit, but Graeme works his way out of it very nicely. If you have some philters on your mixer it's a great place to use them! The third edit of Unfinished Business is just a fabulous boogie moment, even if the 2 first ones blows my mind a little bit more.. A must have record, you won't be disappointed. One of his best releases yet!
Michael Griffin (2) Featuring George Karchmer & Khrissie Henderson - Close Your Eyes - 03-Feb-09 11:04 AM
A record with a special story. At times house music was banging on Chicago's clubs and radiostations this great vocal release was pretty much 'ignored'. Well, let's say some Dj's discovered it, played it and got warm reactions from their public, but still the track didn't really break out as some others did. That's a shame because it is definitely one of the greatest Chicago Classics of alltime. One that always will be on my personal playlist, even in 20 years. The vocal and instrumental parts are smooth and wellthought, it's difficult to say wich one of them makes the track so good. A masterpiece of his genre on Matt Warren's AKA Dance Music label, one that will move you, that's a promise!

Sergio Bonzanni and Raff Todesco are back in full force with a stunning vocal house release. A straight groover that is driven by a sunny atmosphere. The smooth vocals of the great Arthur Miles as well as the sexy female backings are giving the track just the right character to move the most tasty dancefloors. No doubt about that!
An outstanding production by this great duo! Tunes like this one should be in everyone's box.
Sensitive (2) - Driving - 18-Sep-08 05:16 AM
It is so easy and so difficult at the same time to review a breathtaking masterpiece like this one... What can we say about this song except that it is the best possible example of Italo perfection. Well, at least in my personal opinion. It is loaded with a lot of emotions going through some sadness, melancholy and fragility all in a very refined way with a dark, fast and boosted up galoping bassline. The instruments are just perfect and wellthought and the vocals, well, they maybe are even better..
Knowing this, it could be remarkable, but this song is bringing you exactly in the mood you want to be and so it doen't have to be a sad or melancholic mood. Me for example I just get very happy with it, shivers of joy! 'Driving' clearly wasn't made with the idea to bomb all the commercial selling charts, even if they surely wouldn't mind it as a plus, but their love for the music is just painted on that song. You're really feeling that devotion till the very last second.
This one is the very first production from the Zambelli brothers (David & Walter) and it certainly is, with no doubt, their best release ever made. One of the rarest and most sought after Italo releases on the short lived but extremely amazing Gong label as well as in the Italo style in general. Definetly my absolute favorite song of alltime! No words could ever describe this song as it should be...
