Blackway and Helene

Another dreamy classic from the team of Stefano Zito and Carlo Favilli from 1982. The verses have an atonality that lends a lot of charm to this piece, from the offset it may seem to be a distraction but the harmonies in the chorus pull it all together.

Between the verses and chorus the pulse of this production invites you into a sensuous groove. For a little more information on the Roman DJ scene and Zito's foray into music production check out this interview with Stefano Zito(I can't validate its authenticity but it has some classic pics).

Carlo Favilli, Stefano Zito, and House of Music

Mr. Master - A Dog In The Night

In 1983 Carlo Favilli and Stefano Zito delivered some timeless tracks for their label House of Music. Mr. Master's 'A Dog In The Night' and B.W.H.'s 'Livin' Up' and 'Stop' define a dance floor that I long to be on. And to make things that much sweeter Casco's 'Cybernetic Love' was launched the same year on House of Music. All of these productions are so dense and smoky it reaffirms 1983 as a pivotal year for Italo. Not much to say about these tracks so I will let them speak for themselves.
