thanks to everyone for giving me some info on Italian house/disco
this is what I found (and bought) last night:
Progetto Tribale - "Volume 1" (Underground Music Movement)
- a few cuts on here really work well mixed with Detroit techno tracks
- some cool house tracks on it as well
X-Static - "I'm Standing" (also on UMM) - don't recall if it's the original
release or the re-mix release
- one side is full on vocal Italian house (and rather dated but could work
depending on your taste in house)
- other side is more aggressive with nice menacing Reese bass and dubbed
out ecstatic vocal bits, more my thing
I also got one more on UMM but the title and artist allude me right now
other things I picked up
Primary Sequence - "Compufunk" (Alien Funk Movement)
- add another one to my collection of this techfunk label
Walt & Dave - Depth EP 1 (Vigilante records)
- awesome blue vinyl from Walter Jones and Dave Peoples
- pressing or mastering is a bit weird in the spatial qualities of the
music (some things seem to be hard panned to one side or the other)
- really raw techno house that sounds like a real party - wicked stuff
all this for $14.00 and it's all new unused records!
