Tesori Nascosti - l'anima solare della Italo House

'5 ore di House | Garage | Techno anni ’90 dall’Italia | selezionata e mixata da S.W.'

English: (Italiano sotto)

This mix is my tribute to the sound that once lit up dance floors around the world. A musical journey into sun-drenched Italy of the early ’90s, the golden era of Italo House.

A five-hour trip through warm (Deep) House and Garage, classic Italian Latino/Ambient House, the occasional ‘piano screamer’, closing off with the more progressive Italian Techno sound.

I put a lot of time into the preparation: selecting the music, recording and cleaning up the 12-inches for the best possible sound quality. Then came the mixing process, weaving together over 70 tracks into one five-hour musical journey. All in all, a months-long project I worked on with joy, love and dedication.

Enjoy the ride, and hopefully this mix takes you back to the warm, Mediterranean sound of the golden era of Italo House: 1990-1993. A quietly influential genre that continues to inspire new generations.

Italiano:

Questo mix è il mio omaggio al sound che, un tempo, accendeva le piste da ballo di tutto il mondo. Un viaggio musicale nell’Italia baciata dal sole dei primi anni ’90: l’epoca d’oro dell’Italo House.

Un viaggio di cinque ore attraverso la calda Deep House e Garage, la classica Latino/Ambient House italiana, con qualche immancabile “piano screamer” (come direbbero in Inghilterra), e un finale più progressivo, firmato Italian Techno.

Ho dedicato moltissimo tempo alla preparazione: la selezione musicale, la registrazione e la pulizia dei 12" per ottenere la miglior qualità sonora possibile.

Poi è arrivata la fase del mixaggio: oltre 70 tracce intrecciate in un’unica storia musicale lunga cinque ore. Un progetto durato mesi, realizzato con gioia, passione e dedizione.

Buon ascolto! Spero che questo viaggio ti riporti al suono caldo e mediterraneo dell’epoca d’oro dell’Italo House: 1990-1993.

Un genere, spesso sottovalutato, che ancora oggi continua a ispirare nuove generazioni.

In Italo House Aficionados Part 8 we are going back to the warm & sexy Italian House & Garage sound of the early 90s.

As usual I made a selection of known and unknown tracks, including some rarities like Check The Mind, Deseo and Cassandra Project. A special mention goes out to Daniele 'Shield' Contrini. He managed to track down and license the unreleased Leopardo Boom Boom Remix of E.V.O.E.'s "I Don't Wanna Give Up Your Love" for the "Ciao Italia" (vinyl) compilations on Rebirth Records. This track was on top of my wantlist for many years, and one of the last missing pieces of my Italian House Collection. So this one's very special to me.

For the first time a two hour session, featuring Mr. Marvin, Fuser Beat, Nikita Warren, Alex Lee, Free Force, Sueño Latino, Maurizio Pavesi and more.

Get your hands on it and extend your summer a bit longer! x
