Tracklist

Rainy in São Paulo Mix

Selected and mixed by Tommaso Colliva at Toomi Labs
I MARC 4 - Trama Nella Metropoli
Italian soundtracks best musicians ever keepin it real with one library track that is just awesome.
RITZ ORTOLANI - Si può’ essere più bastardi dell’Ispettore Cliff
sometimes it is all just in the title and you can’t beat Ortolani’s  “Can you be more bastard than Inspector Cliff”, can you?
WHITE NOISE - Love without sound
An English band in a  pretty much all Italian set. White Noise are out of BBC radiophonic workshop where Delia Derbyshire and friends used to produce music for “Dr Who” and so forth
PIERO UMILIANI - Bus Stop
Piero Umiliani is by far one of the best Italian Maestro. He had his studio - Soundworkshop - and his own labe - Liuto - and used to release shit load of libraries and the quality is always amazing. 
TONY ESPOSITO - Eroe di Plastica
He became famous for a terrible song - you likely and luckily never heard - during the ‘80s but Italian percussionist Tony Esposito had the time to do a brilliant masterpiece album this song is taken from
RINO DE FILIPPI - Calcolatore elettronico
Rino De Filippi used to be programmer for Italian BBC - Radio Televisione Italiana - and he produced quite a few interesting libraries over the years. ARCHIE SHEPP - Song for Mozambique
Recorded in Milan in 1978 just before Archie Sheep’s appearance at Italin most important jazz festival Umbria jazz this song is out of “Sea of Faces” a brilliant album for Italian niche label Black Saint. 
HELIOCENTRICS - Distant Star
English aces Heliocentrics are always wicked and they album inspired us a lot during last album. 
WHITE FIELD BROTHERS - Safari Strut
Germany got funk, Kudos to Weissenfeldt brothers. 
BUDOS BAND - Up from the South
When we’ve first listened , we thought it was something recorded 40 years ago. 
CALIBRO 35 - Locale
This song is out of a soundtrack we did for a Spanish Italian movie “Said”. 
THE GROUP - Feed-back
This was Morricone’s wet dream. A high level noise making bunch of musicians recording what they feel like. 
MORRICONE - Placcaggio
Another Morricone’s masterpiece out of “Cat of Nine Tails” soundtrack. Hypnotic groove plus noises and effects are infectious and really work well within Dario Argento's movie context. 
ARMANDO SCIASCIA - Heaven on their Mind
Sometimes Italians do it better and Armando Sciascia was great re-doing international soundtracks. Original song is out of Jesus Christ Superstar but this version really killed it!
LESIMAN - Moto Centripeto
Paolo Renosto was one of the most important Italian avant grade composer but during his spare time he dedicated to compose some wicked library music covered under Lesion nickname.
PIERO UMILIANI - Exploration
Mililani again for a killer song out of its label Omicron releases. He was proud and independent and really knew what he was doing.
BALDAN BEMBO - Kamasutra
Sometimes Italian soundtracks are just very well made rip offs and this is just the case. Baldan Bembo doing an erotic movie called Kamasutra and really nailing it with a killer tune, he probably forgot doing this...
M.ZALLA - Produzione
Umiliani again under pseudonym 
RAIMOND SCOTT - Cindy Electronium
Astonishing Raymond Scott’s side project. With money he gained doing commercials in the ‘50s he fund this electronic synth experiment that is just so ahed of its time that is unbelievable!
PIERO UMILIANI - il Motivetto delle 10.30
"Quantity music”, this is the name Alessandrini gave to me describing library production and this is the proof. Title - translates “10.30 theme” - tells us it was really quick to do this thing and was really improvised by very talented musicians.
CALIBRO 35 - L’uomo dagli occhi di ghiaccio
We made this song between first and second album and I’m very happy with the result. It’s a cover of Peppino De Luca “L’Uomo dagli Occhi di Ghiaccio” 
BRAEN MACHINE - Flying 
Covered under psychedelic pseudonym Braen Machine
CALIBRO 35 - E nessuno si fara’ del male


Solid Steel Radio Show 11/3/2016 Hour 2 - Calibro 35

“Saved My Life“ is a joint project led by label bosses Micky (The Healing Company) and Hermann (Tieffrequent)@the-healing-company

Micky Explains:

"He sent me a couple of demos a few years ago, I loved his music and immediately decided to release a twelve inch on the Healing Company. For that reason, we met afterwards several times in Berlin and became close friends. We found out quickly that we are kind of “soulmates”, made for each other, sharing the same sense of humor, politics, philosophy – and of course the same love for music. Even if we are both releasing mostly contemporary house music on our respective labels, our deepest love is for soulful music from the old days. We are fascinated by the lovely vibes of the past, this special touch of melancholia, emotion, deepness and playfulness that is difficult to put it into words – it is something you can feel much better when listening.

One day we had the idea to do some edits of long forgotten tunes we love. After a couple of studio sessions, the result was our first release, “A Piano Saved My Life“ with four piano-driven edits out of Jazz Funk, Italo Disco and some Balearic vibes. We released it as a small vinyl edition on my new sub-label “Piano Music“ and we got very surprised by the warm and positive feedback the EP had worldwide.

Instead of just playing the compactos from beginning to end we tried another approach: avoiding fade ins and outs and doing a mix with a constant flow and vibe. This proved at the end much trickier as we originally thought, since one of the most charming aspects of old Brazilian music is also that you have very well produced commercial albums on the one hand and independent lo-fi recordings on the other hand – but just as good and worth to listen and play! 
After digging in our collections and choosing around 80 records, we reduced the selection to fit into a 90 minutes mix, creating a journey that spans some of Brazil’s most popular music genres: from classic Bossa Nova to MPB, Samba Soul, Samba Rock, Boogie, Disco, Forro, Tropicalia and Psychedelia, from 60 bpm to 140 bpm. Our selection is not dogmatic or academic, we are not presenting a certain time period, style or region – we even take a detour to Italy and France during the mix. What we want to present are records and music that are touching us emotionally, with their delightful vibes from the past, including songs from the early 70s to the early 90s, some well known and highly appreciated, some more obscure or completely unknown, some from reputable artists, some from “one-hit wonders “, who disappeared in the depths of time.

Copenhagen based party starter Dj Universe presents a mix of 100% Azymuth: 

"In February 2015 my friends Sean and Anthon booked Azymuth for a show in Copenhagen and somehow I ended up juggling the roles of being the designated driver, camera man and warm up DJ for the concert. I will never forget those days. The group turned the depressing Danish winter into summer at the snap of a finger just with their presence and the concert itself had one of the most diverse audiences I’ve ever experienced in Copenhagen, all coming together under the warm Azymuth groove. 

Narrowing down 40 years of great music down to a 1h 47m mix was a tough process and I know there are some obvious ones missing, nevertheless I tried my best to grasp and represent the versatile soundscape the group has left behind. The mix spans over 4 decades and about 75 BPM, from the shade of the palm tree to the floor in the club, and I hope it can provide just a little of the magic that I felt witnessing the group play live."

Daniel T. is a Los Angeles-based DJ and producer. A longtime record collector and digger, Daniel has become a local authority on bygone music. He hosts regular radio shows on Dublab (Crosseyed & Painless) and NTS (Tuff Shed). Daniel started making music a decade ago as one half of Cosmic Kids. Alongside Ron Poznansky, he made a name for himself producing heady house and astral dance tunes, and releasing originals and remixes with cult labels Throne of Blood, Let’s Play House and DFA. 

After a handful of releases with Cosmic Kids, Daniel pivoted toward his own project as Daniel T. His solo output is inspired by everything that you might find leafing through his record collection: funk, post punk, new age and pop of yesteryear (think: Compass Point All Stars to Yellow Magic Orchestra). The music he releases as Daniel T. is a reflection of his global taste filtered through his Southern California surroundings.

Daniel T.’s solo debut, a mini-album titled Tetrachromat, was released in 2015 on Young Adults, to a burst of acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork and Resident Advisor. In 2018, Daniel released a full length on Cascine entitled Heliotrope. In contrast to the steady dance-oriented tempos of Tetrachromat, Heliotrope moves across more dynamic landscapes.
