4 Track EP Of Deep House , Balearic & Jazzy Grooves - Federico Costantini aka Luminodisco is back on Hell Yeah having long since assured his legacy with the label.
Over the years, the Italian has dropped many cult and still widely played cuts here from across the disco-sphere ('Ragazzini,' 'Diavolo di un Disco,' 'Oh Mary' and more all still bang) and now he is back with a newly moved sound. A compulsion to produce something with "a more adult approach" is what defines this latest era, and a fine one it is too. Opener 'Solero' will surely become as revered as those classics above with its irresistible grooves guaranteed to bring ultimate dance floor satisfaction. The punchy drums are peppered with percussion and drum fills while gloriously sugary chords add the heat and wispy pads take things into cosmic realms. 'Jazzclub' is an unhinged rhythmic interlude that chops up vocal stabs, screwy synths and whirring machines into stomping brilliance then 'Bigfoot' slows things to a dubbed out crawl that has you gazing at the twinkling star-like synths. Things then get wonderfully wild on closer 'Soko', a jumble of percussion and tribal vocals over swaggering drum loops. Playful leads bring the sun as the dumpy bass plods on, pixel thin pads squirm all around and a celestial carnival in the sky plays out with irresistible charm.

Luminodisco equals disco made in Italy. Firmly linked to DWDK (Danny Was A Drag King) by Ajello, the latest offshoot of the ever-blinding Hell Yeah label, it’s the moniker of Federico Costantini: a resident of the Exe-cute parties, an eclectic artist with southern Italian blood and a Roman soul. His story goes like almost every nice club music fairytale. After bothering his neighbors with post-rock, Costantini was then struck by Kraftwerk, put his guitar back in the closet and began to play around with synthesizers and a vocoder. If his releases Questo Amore Splendido and Balerama are anything..

After bothering his neighbors with post-rock, Costantini was then struck by Kraftwerk, put his guitar back in the closet and began to play around with synthesizers and a vocoder. If his releases Questo Amore Splendido and Balerama are anything to go by, all that's left to do now is sit comfortably and wait for what seems to be one of the hottest artists on the Italian mirror ball scene, present and future. Live from Italy’s Dancity festival, 2011.
