MANHATTAN PROJECT - back on track in 2015It was in 1986, the age of “Milano da bere” where young people danced through the “Electro-pop” and the new “Dance” atmosphere, that MANHATTAN PROJECT band was founded by Rikk Maggese and Andrea Majocchi and supported by City Records. They recorded two “pop-dance” tracks, “THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE” and “GUINNESMAN”, which are a clear reference to the daily life in the 80’s. Thanks to its unique cover made of cloth from NAJ OLEARI (A major clothing Italian manufacturer) the record entered into the Guinness Book. The record remained anonymous for a long time, yet it has been rediscovered by all lovers of the "Italo-disco" across Europe. Unfortunately, many years later, the available copies are rare and the vinyl disc of "That's Impossible/Guinnessman" becomes a treasure much sought.Today, Vielspaß records re-release a limited edition of the MANHATTAN PROJECT with two new remixes by Flemming Dalum and Ali Renault. This release is ready to become once more a pop-icon, for all fans of the genre.

“I was very happy when Nicolas asked me to make a remix/edit of this legendary italo record - especially because I've been totally into italo since the early 80s.... so now I love to help to present italo for todays generation... and keep italo alive” Flemming Dalum''I've been listening to this record for years dreaming of owning my own copy but obviously the prices are a bit high. When I was asked to remix this along with another rework by Mr 'King Of the Cut' Flemming Dalum, I naturally jumped at the chance. It's a bit scary to remix such a classic and I hope I've done it justice but most importantly of all it's great to give people the chance of owning their own legitimate copy in a fantastic sleeve. A great public service by Vielspass and I thank them for asking me to be involved'' Ali Renault
