VA - Ciao Italia - Generazioni(2x12) + booklet

Limited Edition 2x12 + 20 pages A4 booklet (notes are in Italian)
 
At the beginning of the '90s, a new music wave was emerging in Italy. Influenced by stylistic elements and sound expressions arriving from abroad - in particular from those English and American labels it has created the bases for an innovative sound destined to leave its mark for generations to come. It was a sound close to the Deep House atmospheres coming from Chicago, Detroit, and New York. A sound made of powerful basslines, punching drum machines, dreamy melodies, and incredibly sensuous vibrations. Dream House, Italo House, Piano House are names often used to identify this new scene, but it could be simply summed up in one word: "Underground".
"Ciao Italia" wants to be a tribute to the artists that wrote this story. Artists that were forced to use many different aliases that often even themselves have forgotten and certainly less celebrated than their colleagues today. From Andrea Gemolotto, Massimino Lippoli, Fabrice, Mr. Marvin, Davide Rizzatti and Angelino Albanese (DFC Records), Ricky Montanari and Flavio Vecchi (Love Quartet), Paramour, Adrian Morrison, and Dj Ralf (Heartbeat Records), passing through the productions of Alex Neri and Marco Baroni (formerly Kamasutra, Green Baize, Agua Re-up to becoming Planet Funk) for Palmares, up to Don Carlos and Stefano Tirone (together Montego Bay Experience) Francesco Montefiori (aka Key Tronics Ensemble and Soft House Company) and Claudio Moz-Art Rispoli (Jestofunk and Omniverse) on Irma and Antima Records, Leo Mas, Rago and Farina, MBG, Paolino Bova, Gianni Bini and Paolo Martini, up to names that have remained more in the shadows but have given great lymph and depth to music Made in Italy such as Leo Anibaldi , Andrea Benedetti and Eugenio Vatta (Frame), Leandro Papa (Last Rhythm e Stonehenge), Cesare Cerulli and Toni Verde (Blue Zone), Graziano Ragni (High Tide), Massimo Berardi (Underground Nation Undertour Sensation and Cosmic Galaxy) and Massimo Zennaro and all those producers that we were not able to include in this collection because of the lack of space.A rhythmic journey to rediscover what has been, what continues to be and what will be, Ciao Italia tells a story that still sounds incredibly current, whose reverberations continue to be the object of veneration among DJs, clubbers and music lovers of new generations.
