I have one available -- if anyone is interested, feel free to message me

"Free Funk" is a total peak time weapon .. stop and check this one out

One of the best dollar records out there. Amazing production, on par with a New Order B-side and in very much the same style. Arthur Baker in his prime.

Acceptable - the dynamic range is lacking, the cuts are muffled overall. Nothing heinous, a fine player or DJ copy. I can compare to the original US press and the German LP, both of which I've owned, and those are both stellar. Loud, bright in all the...

"Inside Out" is pleasant, but "Thinking Of You" is really where it's at. Great example of tech-y deepness from this era. Totally lovely.. and yes, def a journey!

An arrestingly beautiful release from Anna, front to back. Shockingly inexpensive for how wonderful this record is, a no-brainer buy.
|
|
This record is THE SHIT! Underestimated and overlooked, "Sono's 212 Remix" gets er done. 2024 and has a super fresh club sound, the German vox are perfection.

A side is a bit of a bog standard Italo piano tune to me, IMO there are better uses of that acapella and if I wanted a floor destroyer from this imprint, I'd reach for the firey "P. Lion - Burn In His Hands" 12". On the flip though, "Live Your Life...

This is not uncommon. Many record stores both knowingly and unknowingly carry bootleg LPs.

"No More (I Can't Stand It) (Paradise Garage Mix)" is where it's at, check it out! Slightly above average, bog-standard Eurodance cuts for the rest of it, but Hands Of Fate's remix here is really shimmering and gorgeous.

The "Full Intention Club Mix" is fantastic. Goes great with disco house and French touch .. bliss bliss, Y2K excellence

It's simply the best cheap 12" in existence folks! Raggamix! Straddles synth, house, & deepness perfectly. Never leaves the bag.
|
|
That makes sense .. definitely sounds more like those you describe as opposed to the mid to early 80s dancefloor, pure "Italo" sound. If you are indeed Raff Todesco, thank you for your input here and for all of your wonderful music! I adore your work...

The "It's My Life" edit is cool, thoughtfully arranged..plenty of build & release dancefloor utility. The original extended version is so perfect though, I don't know if I'd reach for this over the original most of the time. My main note though, is...

Worth the price of admission for the Ghostdance track alone, which makes every hair on my body stand up when I needle drop it. But the whole thing is quite a trip. Wonderful, stunning compilation -- brilliantly curated, awesome write-up / liner notes...

Great sound quality as well! Sound Metaphors always does great work with their reissues. Eternal, ethereal tune~~~
|
|
Maybe you were expecting a more advanced 90s Techno sound, but this isn't that ... and that's fine. This is in a different lane, yes, much closer to New Beat or a even a proto-trance sound. Apparently that isn't a lane you're interested in, which is...

Definitely an all-timer Hi-NRG track...though safe to say it's a rip-off of Michael Bow – Love & Devotion, since that record came out in '86. Pretty much the same cowbell programming, bassline, and synth flourishes.

"Atmosphere Version" is a beast -- the instrumental is a dream and the scat acapella is implemented to perfection, goofy but effective. Top class Italian bizness, one of many mega-jams on the Line Music imprint.
|
|
One the best under $5 12"s out there, in my humble opinion : - ) ... though "A Special New Mix" is def my preferred version
|
|
Awesome to see their LPs finally get reissues...but where is the debut LP?? That record most sorely needs one IMO!
|
|
Sound quality on this boot isn't too bad! Nice and loud, sounds fine mixed into official German and Italian pressings from the time period. Mine isn't in great condition though, which makes it difficult to differentiate surface noise from wear versus...

Can confirm the sound quality on this pressing is great. I've been playing this alongside contemporaneous, original Italian pressings and the dynamics stand pretty much toe to toe. Pressed nice and loud and I appreciate the spread across two discs --...

"Seiko 1978" is an absolutely fantastic, slo'd and stretched edit of "Yellow Magic Orchestra – Behind The Mask." Don't know if the timing was intentional or not (unlikely considering how long it takes to get a record pressed these days,) but this is a...

Agree with the below! I play this comp out *a lot*, it is usually in my bag, tons of classic (and deep cut) tracks you want if you like to DJ Italo. I appreciate the inclusion of a modern Italo track in "Jerba," though it is not one I play much....

I really value Discogs comments like the ones below because they often prompt me to stop and investigate a common record more carefully than I otherwise would have. Play this one loud, and you're definitely transported right to an echoing, cavernous...

The Gino Soccio edit is a really needless extension. Instrumental intro goes on faaaar too long, it's simply not an improvement over the original. A somewhat useful tool in a tranced-out dancefloor environment, so I can see some utility. That said:...

Just litigious losers from what I can gather...definitely a shame.
