Believe In Yourself (Captain x Bella Festa Special Edit) - FREE DL ⚓️

This absolute classic from back in the days needed a quick revamp' - I used the Euro Club Mix instead of the Original to make a hands-in-the-air dinger!

With love always - Your Captain' ⚓️

Asha - JJ Tribute (Captain' Euro Club Edit)

I disco-vered this track on a record I was so happy to have (MM Discos 06) from one my favorite artist: Franz Scala.

I enjoyed the edit he made, especially the bassline and the kick he changed - but I was craving a bit more of the original, hence this edit.

And what a track!
All these emotions overflowing like a fizzy natty wine on a summer day, we need more dancefloors to play these moving cuts! 🍷

With love always - Your Captain' ⚓️

Made in 84' - BPM: 109.

Acapulco Nights

G.J Lunghi - Acapulco Nights (Captain' Every Night In My Room Edit) - FREE DL ⚓️

Another Italo Disco classic 🇮🇹

I can't recall how many times I literally cried to this track. One of my favorite Italo Disco voices with Amii Stewart ..

I changed the outro and I tightened the whole beauty together so it does goes ashtray mid-transition.
This reprise at 4min30 is just phenomenal, gets me every time..

"Late Summer Night" (as written on the record) it is indeed!!

With love always - Your Captain' ⚓️

1984' - 102 BPM.

Mike Francis - Survivor (Captain' You Can Do It Edit) - FREE DL ⚓️

UK BANGER!

No words can describe how much I love this track! I own it for years on record and I just wanted to re-do the whole intro and outro so it could be smoother in our sets.

Yes it's screaming a lot, but that piano and bassline - lethal dancefloor weapon!

With love always - Your Cap' ⚓️

I frekin' love this track, but the intro was too long for my taste - I wanted to put an emphasis on the Balearic synths & the dinging pianos. 
So here you are ..

Snakebite - The Beat Goes On (Captain' Balearic Piano Edit)

F**kin B*tch C*nt deep house track.

From my own collection, mostly taken the MK Dub to strip down some moments where the energy dropped a lot.

Yes, it is def' non-politically correct 30 years later, but hell "we can laugh about everything but not with everyone" said the french humorist Coluche.

Oups - that classic went through!

Discogs describes it as electro minimal .. no kidding.  

I love the “Full Intention Remix” which I think is golden!  
Sometimes I just crave the original too - but it’s so hard to play, just like most 3min pop songs, soooo I extended the intro + re-made a completely new outro. 

It’s not perfect, but I don’t mind, and if you don’t either - indulge to spread the gospel of Giorgio & his guitaraaaa.

These vocals in Spanish are a delight! 🇪🇸

Piano Italo House stomper for the win!

Longer intro & revisited outro without the annoying looped vocals along the way - combo made in heaven on this one!

Mania - Shine Shine Shine (Captain' Inner Sun Sun Sun Edit) - FREE DL 🇮🇹

Stone cold classic from the late 70’s.

One of the most loose tracks of its decade 😆  They had too much “love potion” as they sing in the track …  Tightened AF now - so we don’t loose it baby!

Coming in strong with an extended intro, a doubling of these trumpetas bananas and a loving care of an outro adding 2 graceful minutes to the original.

This flow in the vocals is out of this world! And when the trumpetas hit, it’s game over. We never stood a chance from the get go.

Oh what a night!  
Quite a special Italo Disco track in the way the vocals are being conducted. These bridges are bringing some shy, unspoken tears, every time.

With an extended intro & some bits out to make it the way I always wished to have it played.

These dark rising synths are also a treat!

Tam Bryce. Nice To Meet... Ahoy - 10th April 2024

Rare & fascinating minimal Italo Disco 🛟

Gosh this one is really special and triggers all the right buttons. I redid the intro because I really wanted these kind of vocals earlier in the mix & I redid the the whole second part of that slow burner.

I hope you like it too 😘

Baby's Gang - Let's Dance In The Music (Cap' Retwisted Edit)

One of the most beautiful Italo Disco song ever?

When the bassline kicks in .. game over 🇮🇹

There is something with these Italo slow burner that almost always gets me. These vocals sitting on top of celestial synths and again, that rolling bassline — it’s just asking for a tear or three!

Coming in strong with a DJ friendly outro.

Fun Fun - Give A Little Love Again (Cap' Kiss Under The Disco Ball Edit)

Coming strong with 2 Cap’ versions on this 90s dinger! 💃

Boom! Such a pleasure to re-disco-ver this one. The bassline is to melt for, really - proper 90s rave tune ✨

The first edit is closer to the original keeping the vocals & only taking out the boring bits.

My personal fav’: The second edit is more straight to the point with less vocals and a revisited outroooo.

Made the year of my birth - surely I was already dancing to that one in my cradle 🕺

Coming in strong without all these vocal samples that have been pondered & pondered lol!  
More often than not, I add x mins to a track, but this time I had to cut so much, it’s 2mins shorter than the original hehe

Delightful synths, banging bassline, lovely chords and cheesy vocals: This is the Italo Disco we like.  

Back in the 80s when fascination for Africa & the rising sun countries was at its peak 🇯🇵  

This is the 2nd edit I made of this splendid group called “The Creatures”.  The first one is the delightful & cheeky “Believe In Yourself” that I made for the Bella Festa golden-boys in 2023 🇮🇹🇮🇪

There is a piano version of this one but I prefer the original - coming with a new intro & outro + I took out some mood killing parts in the middle.

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

Made in 86’ - 111 BPM of the future is today.

Discogs 👉 https://www.discogs.com/master/82265-The-Creatures-Japan

The Creatures - Japan (Cap' The Future Is Today Edit)

One of the cheekiest tunes of the 90s. 100% certified banger - never seen anyone not dancing under this spell! You’re welcome 💃

The intro was way TOO loooong so I chopped it off - straight to the fun! And I also enjoyed the opportunity to revamp the outrooo.

Always loved the sample from Sandy B on it ..   For the little story. I found the interview where the vocal sample is coming from: it’s to die for! I can’t keep that to myself so here you are: Jerky Boys Prank Call - The Gay Model 🤣  

I checked many remixes and edits and nothing does it. Tall Paul & Klubbheadz don't do it either ..

My own copy is gently destroyed because of too much blasting … so I located a better quality file 😉

Sweet cheesy downtempo house tune from the late 80s’ 🧀

I also recommend the Wingate 12" House Remix which is also good, much more housey and a tad less cheesy 💄

“Whisper in the dark don’t doooo” - of if that is not an earworm 🎶 When the bridge is better than the refrain. Although the refrain really represent when one is in an infatuation, going to tell the whole wide word about them lol. At least it did for me 😂 
There’s even a whistle break - how f*** incredible is that? Coming with a new intro & outro.

Captain Ahoy | Foutoir Moderne #157

Proper boogie dinger - let’s get doooown. 
Oh my gosh the bassline is already such a beauty, but wait until these steel percussions come in .. what a track! This gives me chills and my eyes are getting all teary. What beauty can do at times ..

Be aware, this is a .mp3 quality. Tracking down a good version was already an adventure in itself hehe

Discovered thanks to J.A.Z - so big up to him 💝

Usual loving treatment. New intro, annoying parts out and a different DJ friendlier outro.

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

American Steel - Hustlin' Time (Cap' Constant Inflation Edit)

It’s a proper boogie track with some beautiful lyrics. 

I redid the intro, took out quite some annoying bits and redid the outro too.

The way the track is made with its cheeky percussions may be a bit tricky to play, but I assure you, it’s “on the beat” like BB & Q say .. 

Also, I think the cover is super cool! 🐯🌴

Absolute stomper from 79’!  Produced by Giorgio himself. No wonders it’s such a dingding! 🔔

Usual treatment without some energy killing part and wrapped with a fiery new outro.

These chords are a treat, and that riser at 4min is so enticing, it really grows on me every time I listen to it.

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

The Three Degrees - The Runner (Cap' Rapido Edit)

Captain' Ahoy has been navigating the DJ waters for more than a decade now.

5 years ago, from the stern of his ship, he began crafting eclectic edits for his sets. After some jolly feedback & requests for some of his work, he started sharing his edits with fellow DJs & music lovers around the seven seas.

Sailing forward to present times: The Cap' now hoist sails to more international gigs while still lovingly releasing some of his nautical Cap' Edits to the world.

Cellar Sessions Vol 26: Captain' Ahoy

Italo Disco sung in English with a French accent and we are still speaking about tearing down borders? --

That bassline and synths are just a “délire” as the frenchies would say - don’t know anything about this culture though, just assuming now that I learn 🇫🇷 with Italo Disco ..

I changed a lot of things: redid the whole intro, took out big chunks of garbage, especially the ones right after the refrains (the annoying crac-crac-crac), and redid the outro too.  

Gosh some people should be forbidden to have a sampling button in front of them 😂

With love always, of course … - Your Cap’ 🛟

First released in 83’ - 115 BPM of tu veux que je me casses?

Nathalie - My Love Won't Let You Down (Cap' Je Brûle Pour Toi Edit)

Opla! These percu’s are a lil’ big gift from the universe 🥁

Celestial risers as I call them, banging but subtle razing bassline, beautiful vocal chords, a guitara banana from absolutely nowhere .. well everything we love, isn’t?
 Edit suggestion: HYAS for bigger percussions. I played this gem for a long time, but I was always bothered by the fact that the edit finishes with the refrain .. I never asked myself what the original song was. That is until a few days ago, when my friend -and music provider - Frankie spontaneously sent me a nice lossless version of the track. I was then: Bam! Okey, no coincidences, I'll make my version.  So here is mine, with a different intro and outro ❣️

Fun fact: Discogs categorise as new-beat - well, maybe not widely far off to be honest.

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

First released in 88’ - 126 BPM of I really really want you. Gosh get a room 

You can buy the original here 👉 https://www.discogs.com/master/101260-1000-Ohm-Youre-The-One

1000 Ohm - You're The One (Cap' Really Want You Edit)

Super rare Italo Banger! 
Oh the fixing required on this one - call me Bob the Builder👷  

It’s the best quality I could find, it’s not so terrible for some melting cheese. I really like the percussions, the subtle cowbells and the refrain is simply banging 🔥

New intro, too cheesy parts out  (let’s not abuse ..) and a brand new outro for the flow & glow of our sets.  

As I am writing these words, I see that a reissue will be soon on Moothball, so enjoy this edit before the legendary Hysteric unleash the goods! And go buy it on wax 😘

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

First released in 87’ - 112 BPM of begging.

Sold Out original here but reissue coming soon it seems 👉 https://www.discogs.com/release/327937-Eva-Take-Me-Mr-Love

Eva - Take Me ... Mr. Love (Cap' Please Please Edit)

"Monster slow grooving track" says a comment on discogs. Oh the beauty, really .. this is to die for 🥹

These past few weeks I have been a bit emotional, and I was rinsing it left, right and center. No intention of making an edit of something that works so well already. But, I quickly realised that the outro was super cheeky to mix. So here you have it: affectionately crafted with a DJ friendlier outro.

I raise my glass to love, beauty and fun.

With love always - Your Cap’ 💫

First released in 85’ - 77.5 BPM Of Looooove.

The Rodd - So Blue (Cap' 77.5 BPM Edit)

Oh the memories 🥹

I don’t think I need to mention who I discovered that track from. If you’re as young as I am, and were still learning how to read when this beauty came out, there are good chances it’s coming from the same DJ rinsing it lol. There is only a handful of DJs still playing this one I reckon. Happy to be proven wrong 😉

I know I am cheating with this one, but it really feels like the 90s' ..

The dazzler needed some fixing and a brand new outro which is now “chose faite” 🛠

May we can all cry together under the disco balls of the world as the nights are coming to a close 🪩

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

First released in 02’ - 131 BPM of nostalgia.

Westbam & Nena - Oldschool, Baby (Cap' Nostalgia Edit)

I discovered this track in 2017 - this gem helped me through some rough tides during my first year in Berlin at age 21. 

I did not listen to it for a while, and now I am so glad to have found it again - the kick drum is a dinger, the melodie, the vocals, well as always: everything is just a treat.

Only thing was the outro, so I changed the second part of the song and redid it DJ friendlier. 

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

First released in 92’ - 125 BPM of peace & understanding.

Inner City - Praise (Cap' Spiritual Edit)

Absolute belter from a group we don’t present anymore!

How good is this 💎 - I’ve only disco-vered it in the last year, and it’s been on repeat ever since.

Coming with a DJ friendly outro.

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

Fun Fun - Give Me Your Love (Cap' Massive Infatuation Edit)

As I was preparing some songs for the generous invite to play at The Italian Dance Wave party by Franz Scala, I stumble open an old edit of mine of this golden 💎
 Over the years my knowledge and sensibility to editing services evolved and I realised that the old edit finished with the refrain which is hard to mix, so I took my gloves out of the drawer and had another go at one of my fav’ Italo Disco track.

The problem with this track is the choruses & the bridge, they are absolute mood-killer and I simply can’t have them. So here you are with only the best parts, a slightly different intro & a very different DJ Friendlier Outro.

With love always - Your Cap’ 🛟

First released in 84’ - 121 BPM of looking for love.

Chris Luis - The Heart Of The City (Cap' 2025 Refix Edit)

Well, if that is not my anthem .. 🛟

I actually bought this record before having my moniker, as if that was going to be planned .. The “Women & Captain First” is not sung in the song but it’s written at the back of the sleeve. I remember 7 years ago turning around this 2 euros record full of dust, and seeing that written behind. I was subjugated, had a laugh in the store, and left with that one under the arm.

Fast forward to today, if had know the adventure it would take me in, my little dolphinos .. 🐬

With love always - Your Cap’ (the one that leaves Women & Children first of course .. 🏴‍☠️)

Captain Sensible - Wot (Cap' Women & Captain First Edit)

Balearic Italo-House. What about that celestial riser? Absolute beauty!  

Everything in it is a delight, except the French Accent lol - I am French I can be picky 😉

When enter this opera like chorus, that destabilise a coach in full speed but it works with me.

Coming with a brand new second part + DJ friendly outro, adding a good 1.30min to a way too short original Club Mix 💎
