Right when you thought the 80's had been mostly dug out, the "Night City Life" compilation hits the shelves. 
Ever since we heard his compilation for Spacetalk we were blown away: one of the best curations of early MIDI dancefloor/radio oriented productions we'd heard in a while. Truly refreshing to the human ear, not to mention the heavy research behind it. As such, we've wanted to book Ilan ever since but then COVID happened. Still a wet dream to see him do his thing live but for now here's this amazing bit of aural goodness to get you in the right mindset. 

Ilan is a London-based record collector. He can often be found posting the artwork of 80s vinyl from his collection on Instagram; a patchwork of nostalgia from musical days gone by.

Check him out on IG and listen carefully - your discogs wantlists will never be the same.

Recorded live at Giant Steps on Easter Sunday, 31 March 2024.

The clocks went forward. The speakers were still moving. (They don’t call it a travelling sound system for nothing.) Once the sound settled and after a needle change or two, the dancers flooded in and the sun dipped out of sight.

This recording picks up from about that moment. Just a fun, loose energy from a crowd that knew Monday was a freebie. Flowing between groovers and steppers as the night got extended (twice). 

We felt the love and gratitude, and hope you enjoy the listen back.

Special thanks as ever to Aneesh and Amit, and to Juan for sound at the venue.

Duca Bianco is a left field edits label based in Rimini, Italy.   It was created by Ziggi Di Stella.   
 
The label is purely for fun, cutting, looping and rearranging older music for today’s dance floor and minds of the youth.  

The label has featured edits from the likes of Cherrystones, Hysteric, Kito Jempere, Jonny 5, Good Block, Harri Pierson, Tom Bolas, Talking Drums, Casinoboy and more.

Each one hour show is purely edits only and features friends and family of the label.  

To start the residency Jonny 5 steps out from the shadows again to bring a selection of some of his favourite edits, some his own on the (sadly missed) Bahnsteig 23 label, some unreleased and some appearing on Duca Bianco itself!
 
Bella Bella Bella.

Running Hot’s mix slides in like the perfect sunny afterparty it goes for the perfect satifaction, but left us longing for more.
Thanks @runninghotmusic <3

Smokin’ Beats - Look Who’s Lovin’ Me

This has probably been my record of the year so far. It’s an old record from ‘97 and something that I’ve had in my collection for a long time but it came back into my life at the start of the year when I was looking for some deeper, groovier stuff to play at a gig I was playing. I played it that night and it created such a vibe that I’ve been playing it regularly since then. When I played it at Panorama Bar earlier this year it was a real stand-out moment. I think with the tendency for everyone to play faster and harder music right now this record really stands out with its loose Latin groove and soulful vocals.'
