You don't get the nickname "King of the Cut" for nothing...

Over the years, Danish DJ and producer Flemming Dalum has built a reputation for being a dab hand at the edit. Italo is his life-long passion: he's been dedicated to the darker, underground shades of the sound since the 1980s.

His impact on the genre is remarkable: he's made nine edit packages for Centre Neptune; created mixes for Mothball Records, Bordello A Parigi and Roller Disco Records; and reworked tracks by Klein & M.B.O, Koto, Steel Mind, Mono Band and so many others.

He's also a longtime affiliate of Red Laser Records, the Italo-indebted Manctalo imprint run by Il Bosco, which he's contributed a ton of edits and remixes to. The Manchester label reached the ripe old age of 10 this year and to commemorate the imprint reaching a milestone anniversary, Flemming has whipped up a special mix of his favourite label cuts to take the listener on a journey. In his own words, "the sound of Red Laser will show you the way."

Flemming Dalum: The 'Ransom Note' Mix

Some words about the guestmix by the Mothball records boss himself: "I tried to put together a fun and catchy mix you can listen to while getting ready to go out, having pre-drinks, etc. New tracks that caught my attention and some old favourites that I think are still a bit underrated."

Rena Volvo is a Berlin-based DJ and record collector with Sardinian roots. Her sets are an eclectic and playful mix of warm, energetic disco and timeless synth gems from around the world. As one quarter of Berlin's Automaticamore crew, her heart probably beats fastest for Italo Disco that whisks you back to the Rimini of 1983. She forms the vivid duo Liquid Sky alongside Hara Katsiki, embarking on a journey that explores all spheres of the synth galaxy, pushing the boundaries of sound and creativity. Volvo's passion for the unknown and obscure may also hold a few sneaky treats you’d be wise to stay curious about.

mind opening like an endless sky

It's time for another special: 
@slow-motion-records

In the 54th episode of my Italo Disco series on gds.fm, I present an insight into the discography of the label “Slow Motion Records.” The mix goes beyond the boundaries of classic Italo disco. However, its influences are clearly audible in the productions. The label has also contributed significantly to the Italo hype in Berlin. 

The label about itself:
Based between Chieti – Italy and Berlin, Slow Motion Records is a purveyor of the best Italian producers from London to Shanghai and New York to Milan. The label elevates the Italian dance music at all latitudes, whilst remaining true to the heritage and feels of the vibe that has filled dance floors for the last 30 years. This style has attracted producers around the world who have inherited the movement and made it their own, conceiving of Slow Motion international sister label Wrong Era.

Of course, it's impossible to cover the entire oeuvre of such a prolific label in just one hour. This selection offers a small glimpse into some of the songs that I personally like very much.

Check out the label for yourself:

1. Beppe Loda – Karolina (SLOMO001)
2. Heinrich Dressel – Lambda 2077 (Francisco Remix) (SLOMO052)
