Questo disco me lo comprerei is Bruno Belissimo’s new EP due to be released in October 27th for POLYAMORE, the label he founded and manages.
The album brings the Italo/Nu Disco sounds to another level. The producer, inspired by the Italian proto-Italo records from the late 70s, has made a record like a band would do instead of using extensive programming. The result is a warmer approach to the genre, more musical but still very dancefloor oriented.
Four unreleased tracks plus the single Malocchio, released on 29 September. Thanks to sophisticated samples and retro-futuristic grooves, Bruno Belissimo confirms himself as a musician and producer with a unique and unmistakable style, capable of creating fresh and innovative projects.
1.Questo disco me lo comprerei
It is the title track of the EP and is Bruno’s personal version of a digging classic („Io questo disco me lo comprerei“ by Beatrice) hidden in the meanders of the Italo-disco away from the charts. The singer’s off-tune voice is a hymn to the ancient splendour of vinyl, a nostalgic tribute to the ritual of buying, listening to and sharing music in a different way.
2. Litighiamo
Like in a Carlo Verdone film, this song describes an Italian-style quarrel: two people in a cabriolet ruining a perfect day at the beach. Litighiamo starts at the right moment by turning on the car radio. It lifts the spirits, amuses, but leaves an indelible aura of melancholy.
3.Tutta la notte
Let’s forget everything without missing a thing. The whole night is a white horse running amok, unleashing smiles, surprise and admiration. The track mixes italo-disco and funk, keeping the heartbeats high with every drum passage. The whole night is an athletic gesture, for those who dance it and for those who play it.
4. Everybody loves dancing
Everybody Loves Dancing is the slogan of Polyamore and with this track Bruno wants to prove it. A pounding bassline and a straight bass drum will always manage to unite generations, touch opposites and share a dance.
5. Malocchio
Through mystical words and archaic melodies, Bruno tells the story of an heart broken person who calls on the dark power from within to haunt their ex, who in the meantime is enjoying life to the fullest. It is precisely this carefree joy that irritates the newly born sorceress who conjures up rituals and black magic full of resentfulness and revenge purely to inflict pain on the counterpart. Thanks to dancing with heart and soul, expressive movments to the pressing rhythms, furious bass lines – the cursed manages to reject the dark power with light and joyfulness.
