incl. spaventi dazzurro twist mix

talent marcello giordani brings us an earworm-worthy, classic italo disco sound lp.

slow motion is back! incl. strong alexander robotnick remix

it s been a while since marcello giordani last release. now the man who powerfully relaunch the italo sound in 2008 with the acclaimed blog italo deviance is back on the scene after 2 years of hard work and research into the deepest and obscure italo sound. this 6 tracks lp travel through again into the unique sound of the early 80 s italo disco built with spacey analog sounds, some cheesy atmospheres and a touch of primitive trance chords. marcello s taste is very clear and specific when we speak about electronic disco and this lp is totally inspired by artists like farina/rago, sangy, alexander robotnick, alessandro novaga, doris norton and also from his experience collecting and playing this shit during the last 20 years.
if you want to give a name to the style of this lp, call it -organic italo-.

linea beat 5 the fifth collection in our dance-floor only series is the aptly named -dance-. arriving in two different versions for those times when you need alternative vibes on the dance-floor, music is backed up by a slamming, jack-time remix from passarani, a.k.a one half of tiger & woods.

capofortuna is a duo made up of legendary bologna-based house maestro, dj rame and multi-instrumentalist ricky cardelli from rimini. perhaps our housiest release to date. crush on you is an ep of particularly sophisticated forward thinking dance music. with glorious live instrumentation and joyous arrangements this is the kind of record that is going to slip right into many dj s collections. don t sleep on this one.

slow motion s 38th (!!) release comes courtesy of berlin-based gallo who you may know as part of balearic gabba soundsystem. joining the family for his debut solo release gallo drops the tempo for three deep-cuts of blissful balearica. backed up with an acidic, chugging re-rub of faron from fabrizio mammarella which is perfect when the sun goes down, orange stripe arrives just in time for summer. how to get the most of this track: combine it with blissful and dreamy beach-excursions or with a sunset aperitivo. this 38th release has -future classic- written all over it.

first part in a brace of new chapter of italian dance wave compilation serie. ma spaventi, sauvage world, 2000 and the hardest working man in disco, slow motion label head franz scala.

a trippy selection of proper after hours jams, to keep feet moving and heads spinning till the sun comes up.

four slow-burning bombs that perfectly encapsulate how far that slow motion, slo-mo sound can be stretched.

shanghai based, altieri second release on slow motion and it is an absolute belter. an insane mix of acid and middle eastern influences that punches its way to the cerebral cortex and takes no prisoners. sure to any drive any discerning dance floor into overdrive, spazio terra is backed up with a peak-time remix from the man that always can fabrizio mammarella.

the fourth volume of the strictly for retro club use series lineabeat sees two of our most prolific producers deliverer the goods on a double a-side release. a pair of slick electro-disco chuggers that blend the familiar with contemporary and will fit into a wide variety of dj’s sets. dance floors: you have been warned!

the next instalment of the slow motion soundtracks serie, this time from pordenone‘s alessandro parisi.

new year, new start and a long overdue introduction of some female sensibilities into the slow motion stable. system olympia hails from calabria and was formerly part of london based royalty. you know the drill by now, tear jerking synths, chest crushing bass and that indefinable slow-motion disco swagger that we have made all our own. dance floor, after party, headphones, locked groove tools – we got it covered.

for the fourth edition of slow motion’s soundtrack serie we welcome heinrich dressel, better known as one part of minimal rome. space shaft is three tracks of dreamy, sleazy space-funk delivered with a light touch across expansive musical horizons. backed up with a brace of marcoantonio spaventi versions – both ‘disco’ and ‘chill’ space shaft is a record for movie fans and dancers alike.

another debut producer joins the ranks of slow motion with a distinctive take on some classic sounds. armonics hails from bari, deep in the italian south and his first ep is at turns blissful, jacking and dare we say, playful. for a first ep, armonics has certainly nailed his musical colours to the mast. crossing with ease between disco, balearic and an indefinable x-factor.

alien alien from rome better known as rodion and hugo sanchez, return to slow motion for their second 12? humana . backed up with a dub version of the title track and second track armani humana arrives fully formed on your favourite italian dance label. chunky synths and disemboweled voices meld with tribal percussion and bags of swagger for another all italian dance

edo is a personal view over the modern asia, japan in this case. inspired by the street sounds and bugged out day to day world of tokyo his debut ep is four tracks of slippery head music. chiseled from the deep seams of an intergalactic mine and informed by the dark heart of house and no wave disco this is club music from the oily underbelly.

for il nostro tempo, his debut release on slow motion, lerosa has crafted four tracks of wistful, propulsive dance music. the trance inducing chug of il nostro tempo and the bittersweet synths of la monarca take up side-a, a pair of contemporary club cuts oozing with emotional melodies and stripped back rhythms.

francisco returns to slow motion for the second in our of retro-dance-floor series, linea beat volume 2. drum beats are rolling and lazers are scanning for a double a-side of vintage yet futuristic discoid funk. relentless hand claps, ghostly italo voices and killer bass lines that comes on like the b-52 s of your alternative-universe wet dream. this is the sound of a sweaty cellar at 2am on a monday morning with a uniquely italian twist.

since its inception in 2009 slow motion has set the standard for new wave of italian dance music producers. with over 15 releases in the archive the italo/berlin based label is now about to drop its first ever compilation italian dance wave. bringing together some of the secret weapons that label boss franz underwear has had tucked away in his record bag with brand new tracks from the likes of clap rules, bottin and riders of the lost arp this compilation packs a mighty punch with its 22 tracks.

finally. a taster of what we have been waiting for a long time, four tracks from motorcycle boys upcoming album - squalo. with a quad of dancefloor ready tracks at your disposal this 12 has something for everyone. need to kick your disco-dance party into touch? no problemo! mutant house and dischord disco sit alongside girl friendly drum workouts and emo disco. its disco, but not as we know it. look out for squalo in the later part of this year, but dont miss your chance to get in on the action early. this 12 is not to be missed. did we say essential?

hot on the heels of the last release from francisco in slow motionss new soundtrack series comes this stunning four track release from marco antonio spaventi. while recalling influences as diverse as jan hammer, john carpenter, goblin, giorgio moroder, daniele patucchi, the de angelis brothers and many other legendary (mainly italian) composers from the soundtrack side, these tracks are just as comfortable on the electronic dancefloor and provide a dancing experience every bit as engaging as a listening one. synth-heads, soundtrack afficonados, space-freaks and dance fiends are all set to enjoy this one in equal measure! move fast as copies are limited and demand is high.

dj rocca kicks off his new release with a bouncy, deep and machine driven track laced with occasional synth stabs and highlighted with simple but effective percussion. next up is a wonderful track weaving in out of a harmonic house theme and a synth heavy banger. this tune will definitely drop some jaws and raise some eyebrows on the dance floor with dancers mesmerized by the lightness with which rocca switches up the game in one tune. to finish up the ep the b-side serves up a house heavy theme with a slightly distorted vocal and a more psychedelic slow jam perfect for the next late-late session.

limited to 300 copies! francisco is back and dives deep into darkness and moves in out between the atmosphere of an 80s horror movie soundtrack and a modern day take on eclectic disco. with two main theme tracks and three skits this mini-album is the perfect package to turn up the volume and turn down the lights when this bone shaking, gravedigger ep hits the decks. francisco is the italian producer francesco de bellis (known as on half of mat101 and jollymusic) solo project.

one shot limited series (vinyl only), additional mix dub & bonus by fabrizio mammarella

excellent balearic space disco / cosmic style

as ajello say:the idea for a cover version of n.o.i.a.s looking for love was born a couple of years ago - an idea of alessandro piatto, younger brother of davide piatto, original member of n.o.i.a. as soon as alessandro proposed it,we asked whether we could have the original tracks but, unfortunately,they have been lost over the years.immediately his brother davide brought together the original lineup of n.o.i.a.and locked them up in the studio to record the voice from scratch and some of the synth parts. our intervention was first on the drums, replacing the original for a more uptempo beat, and then the bassline, shaping it to a more modern sound. the vocals were treated with filters and echoes,and we also added some new guitar parts and synth lines. it was an honour to us, ajello, to bring to light an italo-disco classic that has really influenced us and we have put all our efforts to create a version that is timeless, as much as the original.

slow motion family proudly presents the rimshooters (massimiliano pagliara & rotciv). name comes from a special obsession for rim shot drum sounds, typically found on famous and legendary roland drum computers such as tr-808, 909, 707, which both of them had already used in their individual productions. the final result is a mixture of classic and vintage sounding tracks yet modern, through the use of old synthesizers and drum machines as well as software artifacts and techniques.

a shiny picture disco for slow motion records release number 7 - disco wizard by francisco from jolly music. beamed from distant satellites via 1983 and picked up by a crack team of berlin based italian disco commandoes, the disco wizard brings to mind space, the tougher end of pre-84 italo, guys with beards and grace jones and amanda lear dancing the night away. a nagging baseline propels the track forward with alternating male and female vocals that coo and tease, whilst twinkling refrain evokes the giogio morders classic >the chase<. on the flip side the dub mix strips away most of the vocals and injects some serious strut into the beats. the rougher, tougher cousin of the original to send the boys and girls wild with cosmic desire. you have been warned.

we are pleased to present the latest addition to our slow motion family - marcello giordani. disco overlord, laser cowboy and cosmic heartbreaker. >chubby rain< takes you on a journey through inner space and outer dimensions where the infinity of the universe glows in neon-indigo and thoughts and feeling come and go like waves on a beach. with wandering arpeggios, washed out digital strings and distant vocals, there s just the right amount of strut in the precision-engineered beats to propel you through the night. >roma< brings us back closer to earth with a smattering of classic disco sounds reinterpreted for a parallel universe. playful synths make us think of strange animals in distant galaxies, and inter-stellar adventuring with a happy ending.flip the record over and masimilliano pagliara breaks chubby rains epic journey in to smaller, sharper hops that retain the best parts of the original but adds extra rocket boosters to make for a more exciting ride. finally modus, the dirty, sexy robot cousin that we only talk about in hushed digital voices. she is slow, sleazy and spilling oil out of every hole. is that reggae she is listening to?

support by: in flagranti, toby tobias, andy black, munk, bottin, babyg, massimiliano pagliara, dicodromo, rayko, clap rules, love supreme, club silencioà after record, slow motions follow up û wrong era ep is set to catapult this small italian label into the big time. this time around and its all about the charms of italys very own motorcycle boy who delivers two stunning original tracks backed up with white hot remixes from the heels of love and old school disco legend fabrizio mammarella. try begins as a sleazy electro disco cut, thats swaggers along until breaking out with melodic strings that lighten the mood, before things drop back down to a perfect 4am groove that john carpenter would have been proud to call his own.
