WHAT IS THE TRACK ID OF THIS GEM PLEASE ? <3

1st hour by @midnattssoula

Recorded this downtempo/belearic/chillout mix for my summer break in Costa del Sol and Algarve, was thinking to keep this for myself, but then changed my mind as it might help some of you to enjoy your summer holidays even more. Dive in! ; )

Strictly for adult listening. Gustare!

rigorosamente italiano

Picture this. It was the hottest day of the year & the mid afternoon sun was high in the sky.
Many people had been up all night, some were just arriving in the fields in Norfolk.

The Old Gramophone tent was one of the few stages with some refuge from the sun so I played super chill, trippy & Dreamy with lots of Reggae, slow Disco & downtempo dance. There are also lots of unreleased edits & version excursions which you won’t hear anywhere else.

I mourn the fact that there are no longer chill-out rooms in the clubs so this was a chance to play some music that is good to lollygag and trip out to or dance slowly if the desire takes you. 
I brought it up gradually because I don’t have  much chill out music on my stick cos there are no chill out rooms in clubs these days. And yes I am mostly Nick The Stick these days... 

I picked it up a bit more during the 3rd hour as Sassy J was up next so wanted to give her the best chance possible of getting a dance floor happening (was still real hot though).
I played a fun party set on the Thursday night but sadly the recording of that was corrupted.

Anyway I hope you enjoy.

P.S. the photo is in taken in Brighton while I am wearing my favourite Houghton top

I had the immense pleasure of being hosted in the splendid Balearic Brekfast show of the lovely Colleen 'Cosmo' Murphy in November 2024, for the 'Archeo Recordings 10 Year Anniversary', with my mix and a special interview in which I also talked about my musical origins and the scene music in which I grew up, between Florence and Bologna ( https://www.balearicbreakfast.com/post/balearic-breakfast-episode-200-meeting-manu-archeo-archeo-recordings ).
On this occasion I took inspiration to make this mix.
These are some of my favorite songs by my favorite bands from the Italian New Wave / Alternative Rock 80s scene, mainly from Florence and Bologna, my cities: Litfiba, Diaframma, Gaz Nevada, Neon, Confusional Quartet, and again ... Violet Eves, Kirlian Camera and Pankow.
At the beginning of the 80s I was too young to have been to their concerts (I did it later, at the beginning of the 90s for some of these bands) but I still breathed that wonderful air of excitement and innovation and I listened to this music at home from my mother's vinyl collection: 'I was a child and I never stopped discovering beyond the boundaries of reality'.

"Ero bambino, bambino, bambino, ...
E non la smettevo di scoprire
Oltre i confini della realtà"
(Litfiba - 'Bambino' 1988)

This Mix is in a chronological flow, from early 1980 to 1989.
