TOP OF THE TOP ITALIAN LIBRARY
One of the best Italian Library jams on the Edipan label. An inspired musical interpretation of mid '70s young America with spacey Funk/Breaks and strung-out Italian sounds of the period. An essential grail and top of the top dusty fingers / music producers / beat makers / sample hunters record.
An Italian Funk Library true classic we have been pride to reissue in 2015.
What we have here is a Remigio Ducros and Luciano Simoncini (Arawak, Jason Black, etc.) sure shot and fantastic record for those who are into the classic Simoncini/Ducros sound and generally into the groovy Italian Library sounds. Very reminiscent of the "Accadde A.." and Jason Black recordings. What you can expect are tightly knitted and compressed drums, stoned flute sections, shouting horns, Fender Rhodes Piano, heavy basslines and that signature spacey Wah Wah guitar that's on all of the earlier Simoncini recordings. Variations on the Sgambetto - Sgambata theme from LA PALLA E' ROTONDA / stoned "Accadde A.." styled flute / amazing Hip-Hop beats / 'popping' percussion, Fender bass & piano etc. Daniela Casa is probably the girl playing all the Wah Wah and cosmic Fuzz distortions. Booming Italian Library production - loads of mellow grooves, samples and inspired beats. GREAT for DJs!

No boring tracks on this BREATHTAKING LP, a pure delight from the beginning to the end. Starts with KILLER Fender Funk Rhodes of "BUS STOP" with great bassline. Follow on the same side the romantic Lounge "MAWIL", and the spacey Hip Hop Funky "MAGNOLIA BOULEVARD" with its hot drum breaks. More deep Funk tunes on "SUBWAYS", dark flute theme "FLUTING" and clipped Funky guitar from "CONEY ISLAND". Side B starts with lovely Cinematic Score "CIGAR'S FACTORY" where is probably the Alessandroni's famous whistle followed by the fantastic Jazz-Funk flute "FRISCO". Other Funky flutes on "NIAGARA FALLS" and Daniela Casa's MENTAL Fuzz/Experimental distortions on "NIGROS". More Jazz Lounge & Funky arrangements on rest of the album which is simply an OUSTANDING classic masterpiece. ESSENTIAL.
