“Mayday Mayday, the end of the world is near, nuclear bombs are hitting the world after the pandemic created the feared World War III. Life is hard and only bunkers are safe places to hide away and party in peace.”

Sweat and more sweat in this bunker edition. The vibe thrown off by these edits and rework are vintage military movies from the 80’s & 90’s. RFX worked on three edits with some heavy celestial aspect and punchy drum machines to be played in revolutionary parties that will come in the next years. Jackit went for a retro downtempo FM vibe with mesmerising drum works and hard breaks with flutes so that you feel in Vietnam.

You know the drill now, all Extinct Melodies are only available for 8 days from the release date, then they move forever in the Top Cat Membership program! So you have from the 28th of July till the 4th of August to grab this rare beauty.

CWPT012: @lucadellorso - Actors

Rich in melody and instantly classic in feel, Luca dell’Orso debuts on CWPT with a mini-album of lush Italo, sensitively summoned from the Netherlands. Having impressed with previous releases on labels including Bordello A Parigi and Red Laser Records, this longer player demonstrates a delicate approach to his studio, flitting between pop songwriting and analog experimentation.

From the soft fanfare that announces ‘Solitair & Solidair,’ ‘Actors’ establishes a confident groove that gently pushes an Alfa Romeo pedal toward Balearic ecstasy. On the instantaneous lead single ‘Dear Rosie,’ dell’Orso blends the signature palette of the vintage Yamaha DX7 synthesizer with longing vocals from collaborator Jolisa. A paean to a special person from a distant past, ‘Dear Rosie’ is blessed with a wistful melody befitting a classic Eric Rohmer film, a musical postcard of a treasured connection. From wistful midsummer memories, dell’Orso easily transports listeners to another season entirely with ‘Winter Scent’, a deep meditation reflecting the artist’s walks in the few hours of available sunlight, thoughts beautifully vocoded beneath a heavy sonic layer.

Out of this lavish gloom blossoms the inevitable sound of spring on the driving, optimistic ‘Love by Association’; an enduring recipe of distinct drums and pitch-shifting synthesis, frozen in time for frenetic Eurodisco dancefloors. On ‘Propaganda’, dell’Orso offers a more forceful take on the same instincts, skipping inner-Schengen borders to simmer via industrially-tinted pleasures as revealed in Dusseldorf, 1984. For a sublime finale, ‘This Time (Things Will Be Different)’ takes to the piano, where Luca dell’Orso finds space to demonstrate the elegant minimalism that easily coexists alongside his timeless energy.
