MIXES, PODCASTS & RADIO SHOWS

Heavy-traction bodyjack and sun-streaked disco straight out the Mediterranean belt, here comes Italian producer Giuseppe Scarano with the bouncy next instalment of Fluid Funk, 'My Life' EP. True to his solar-powered take on the classic US house sound, the owner of the Nice People outlet beckons us onto the path of luscious summer lounging with a quartet of no-nonsense dance floor rippers, lithely alternating sequences of hi-intensity shuffle, Roule-style dynamics and further space age-infused drifts across the scintillating vaults of glam disco. Jacuzzi-warm funk and coastal luxuriance all the way.

Drawing first blood, 'My Life My Love' is a proper fiery blast-off, flush with Scarano's continental breakfast of roaring Chicago drums, spinning synth motifs, processed brass and balearic-like ambience. Churning it like there's no tomorrow. 'Gedda Feelin' continues on a slightly more jagged note and true-school discoid vibe. Propelled by a springy drum work, mesmeric vocal loops and soulful Rhodes chords, it's a restless jacking house number that unfurls, bold and pumped-up at full stretch. On 'Playin da Song', Scarano blends in a fine match of Afro-funk, retro-laced electronica and filtered house chug, whereas the closing cut '2404' opts for a finely integrated mish-mash of piano-fuelled nostalgia, heavy-lidded bop phrases and low-slung boogie, ready to take on any smokey lounge and beachside party with its sluggish punch and exquisite suavity.

Giuseppe Scarano - My Life EP [Fluid Funk - FF005]

Giuseppe Scarano, an Italian artist based in Antwerp, Belgium, has established himself as a prolific figure in the music scene. Over the recent years, he has released a multitude of vinyl records on labels such as Nicepeople, Disco Disco Records, and Cardiology. His work aligns with the emerging Italian wave, a movement spanning from Rhythm of Paradise to St. David and Gourmet de Funk. What sets Scarano apart is the distinctive punchiness of his style, which seamlessly fits into this musical landscape. An exemplary demonstration of his talent is the EP that kickstarts the groove with "De Folies", a jubilant 90s house track that artfully combines the vibes of artists like Sneak and Dimitri from Paris. This record is a clear invitation to the dancefloor, poised to get feet tapping and bodies moving. The EP maintains its momentum with "Pleasure Dreams", continuing to weave a musical narrative that captivates the listener. Flipping to side B, we are treated to the disco-infused hit, "Walking on Music", and the closing gem "Timeless". This 12-inch record is a manifestation of spontaneity and boundless energy, guaranteed to captivate and delight audiences. Scarano's music exudes happiness and is designed for people who revel in the joy of the moment. As a nod to his roots and influences, he also pays homage to the legendary Folies Pigalle club, where Skylax once held court and organized memorable evenings under the banner of "House de Folies".

Disco Pride EP

DISCO001 - Giuseppe Scarano - Disco Pride EP

Nicepeople have released some serious players in the past couple of years, from established legends like Orlando Voorn and Boo Williams through to newer talents like Khadeeja Grace and Soulvibe Inc. Now it's the turn of Giuseppe Scarano and Gourmet De Funk to lay down the deep house mission in a classic New York style - just listen to 'Gotta Move (GFD Party Stompin' Mix)' and you'll know what we mean. The sampling alone nods to Big Apple legend Pal Joey, while the sax-licked groove has a MAW vibe to die for. The quality keeps up across this record, leaving you with some forthright garage house pieced together with knowledge and flai.

NICEPEOPLE - Giuseppe Scarano ADE MIX

Co-Founder/Co-Owner of @nicepeople_records

Influenced by Italian house music, Giuseppe Scarano quickly made his mark, sharing stages with numerous talented artists before launching his record label NICEPEOPLE in 2018.

His "Feel Good" EP (including a remix by Paul Johnson) was the second release to debut on the label, which kicked off with great momentum. The first project was the "Positive Vibes" EP, signed by the legendary Dutch producer Orlando Voorn. Following this, NICEPEOPLE released music from artists such as Paul Johnson, Nico Lahs, Roy Davis Jr., Gari Romalis, Vincent Floyd, and Gourmet De Funk.

Since 2019, Giuseppe Scarano has released music on Berlin-based Disco Disco Records, London’s Cardiology—a sublabel of Constant Sound by Burnski—Rotterdam’s Fluid Funk, and France’s Skylax Records, generating widespread acclaim. Always in search of new sounds and experiences, he continues to carve out his deep and distinctive path in the world of music.
