Madi Di performs her own vocal rendition in this 'Ethnic EDM' version of "O'Sarracino"; a classic folk song from Naples Italy written in 1958.
The song was originally written by Renato Carosone & Nisa; the term "O'Sarracino" refers to an 'Arabic man' from the east. The songs is about a fascinating arabic man landing in italy of oriental color who was desired by all women. Authors evolved the protagonist to be a Neapolitan peasant who is tan with a gold chain, and extremely seductive, making all of the women fall in love with him as he walks the waterfront of Naples.
The strong Arabic influence in Italian folk music & dialects specifically in Sicily and Naples, coins to their occupation and ruling in Italy throughout the country's history.
Madi Di's father, who is a native of Sicily, would constantly play this song for her growing up. It was and still is her favorite Italian folk tune. Madi Di is so excited to present her cover of "O'Sarracino" to you. Enjoy!
