1950s electronic music works

cristalli liquidi returns to bordello a parigi with ecco i remix! alexander robotnick, black spuma and bottin himself on remix duties. on top the sought after 12&#8243,,, version of the evergreen volevi una hit.

perpetually locked into a disco groove, pete herbert has already impressed this year with the splendour of his releases on nang alongside martin denev, but on this new 12inch for riot gear he s stepping out on his own. the record actually leads in with the plush, romantic throb of the yam who? remix of -expresso before the original takes over with a more peppy, borderline hi-nrg approach. on the b side bottin gets to take no big thing to task with a version rich in electro funk synthlines, while the original sports some piano house chops and enough sizzling dancefloor energy to ignite a ruckus in a retirement home.

in 2012 bottin presented a mysterious neo-italo-wave band: cristalli liquidi. this album, finally, unveils the mystery: cristalli liquidi is not a band, not in the conventional sense of the word. it s entirely bottin s music, lyrics and vocals, with a little help from his friends. this long overdue lp not only introduces original works, but also breathes new life into remakes of obscure italian pop songs. sun-blushed synthwork is embraced by vocals steeped in romance, vocals en italiano no less. the many guises of the glitterball are unveiled, from the deep bass and smooth funk of 70s disco into the catchy hooks of the 80s and beyond to darker tones and lovelorn laments. across nine tracks the venetian takes you on a journey, as his homeland of italy is musically explored through past and present. cristalli liquidi is an album some five years in the making, five years at first glance. in reality, this lp is a narrative that spans almost thirty-five years. from the poets and songwriters who inspired bottin to the friendships and collaborations that made this project possible, this is an album forged through memories old and new, a heartfelt account of relationships between people (and synthesizers too!)

after her disco anthems package -de tomaso- rimini sunset are now on the way to the next -sunrise-. house with a code. plus remixes by legendary bottin, ali renault and pmx soundz

supported by: bottin, chris fortier, bill brewster, pete herbert, ibiza sonica, dmc world, ibiza global radio, cole medina, paul bonomo, laurent pastor

cult italo post-wave group cristalli liquidi are back with another 12- maxi single. this time the production was carried out by the godfather of italian electronic music alexander robotnick with some mysterious intervention from bottin. sciame (italian for swarm) hits harder on the dancefloor then their previous releases, without losing a single drop of the italo lyrical magic.

(red axes remix) the original got praise from psychemagik, marcus marr, headman, bottin, red d, rayko, khidja and more. we invited red axes to remix fernandez and boy, did they deliver.

micronation is the frank agrarios new label. after some key releases on internasjonal, tom tom disco and maxi discs frank decided to start his own vinyl label. micronation is a declaration of independence, frank makes his own rules, passports and stamps, while music is the currency. 02. percussion, deep bases and franks trademark dubby dealys are all there. bottin provides a killer rmx ready to destroy any dancefloor. early support from soul clap, jimpster, munk, swayzak, mammarella and thomas von party.

from the tropics comes whiskey disco, a sneaky re-edit label bent on dredging the decanter for diffident dancefloor genius from latent disco perpetrators. it is loosely connected to sleazy mcqueen and his assorted cohorts.
wd43 welcomes italian-disco-demigod, bottin to the roster. bottin offers two uptempo and catchy re-edits sitting alongside a lovely dub of #1 deejay by hristo. on the b2, label head, sleazy mcqueen has elongated the soulful house classic, we all need love. 4 songs tweaked for the jazzy leaning disco set.

clone classic cuts serves another cult italo disco classic! gorgeous female vocals slapped on that lovely 80 s synthesizer/drum programming. this is one of those releases that easily makes it into the top 50 of all time greatest italo disco songs. produced by roberto ferrante (also known for his pinneaples project) and originally released on the obscure airport label in 1984. we managed to restore and re-master the original versions and the lovely paris mix. on top of the original versions we serve you a new re-rub by italian italo specialist bottin (eskimo, artifacts etc). bottin did a great job with a new crazy soundhack mix that cranks up the energy level and makes it more jackin. pretty amazing when you realize that these tracks are making people dance for 28 years now. more then enough reason for a proper re-release on high quality vinyl. enjoy!

gabe catanzaro is a kind of -king of italo disco made in usa-. after the first appearance on international deejay gigolo in 2000, he has reached the swiss labels mental groove and viking music with unforgetable gems like memories and ex-girlfriend . later he has released the amazing i can still remember on john selway s label memory boy, and also a full lenght on laboraudio called (la febbre dell italo disco) (italo disco s fever, translated from italian language). finally, after some years of break and a couple of remixes for dj gio mc-505, he come back with a ep full of italo disco and synth pop references. essential for who love the sound of the 80s.

as nang completes its first two years on the planet things are going pretty well. we are certainly not getting rich in financial terms but the love of the music and plaudits are warming our souls to the core. along the way we have also managed to work with some amazing artists and introduce some mighty-fine new ones to the world so it is with great pleasure that we bring you the 2nd installment of our >array< series. it is a stock-take of the best nang tunes from the past year, some previews on future hits and some tracks we just had to release!

next up on nang we get tooled up with our disco pick-axe to mine one of the most authentic italo vaults, that of once-forgotten-but-now-hero-again beppe loda. having begun djing in brescia aged 16, loda was resident at gambaras soon to be legendary typhoon club from 1980 until the club closed in the same year as the paradise garage, a year before acid house officially began in 1987.

4 classic pieces re edited, re structured by bottin (known for his italians do it better release). strange conenction for this italian with the us. but we are happy that the magick edits allstars took mr bottin in their crew... big tip..

the criminally infectious followup to fire is a mix of disco, electro, italo funk and more and comes with remixes from the juan maclean, bottin, and frances outrunners. the original version from the fierce and funky 4 piece (who rocked it at sxsw) is also included.
