One of Italy's most revered producers on the global scene, Bottin is always ready with an invigorating palette of sounds and rhythms that stem from his endless thirst for invention. This new release continues that diverse legacy with Balearic-infused pair of Italo cuts. "Waterland," is a buoyant disco number. Its bass ebbs and flows with wave-like consistency, polyrhythmic drums percolate beneath, creating a type of suspended animation that propels motion with a tempered energy. The slow-burning crescendo of Respirare' begins with an airtight blend of tick-tock rhythm and minimal then the pace picks up and the synths pile on. Bottin takes the blissed-out enchantment of the Balearic and infuses it with the kinesis of Italo without the music losing its easy-breeze stride.

Venetian disco master Bottin comes with the 2nd release on his newly launched TIN imprint! The first single on orange striped vinyl instantly became an object of desire for countless wax hunters. Now this is your chance to secure a copy of the follow-up single, designed by Zaven and individually screen printed by the artist himself, thus each copy is unique and is bound to become even more collectible than the previous release. DIRTY can roughly be described as a magnetic disco-not-disco burner, with heavy drums, tinges of punk and new wave chanting. This is actually only half of the description, since at the 4-minute mark an evil synth from beyond takes control, sucking you into a vortex of deranged dancing and no, you ''can't stop, oh no'' as the chanting continues. Instead you'll be begging for more and that's precisely what you'll get since this is a longer mix (clocking at 8'42'') made exclusively for this vinyl and will not be released digitally. Comes on white vinyl individually screen printed and stamped in transparent pvc sleeve.

Bottin, AKA Guglielmo Bottin, first crossed paths with us at the Carnival of Venice. He was playing live synth whilst Bearfunk head-bear Stevie was DJing. After more DJing & some jovial keyboard sessions and some seriously impressive listening, we knew we had just found our favourite new Venetian. The Horror Disco concept all started with the chance loan of a noisy, old, incontrollable, 70's Farfisa Syntochestra synthesizer. This proved to be the weapon of choice for several of the tracks on the album (Mary Lewis, Magnetic Cat) with Bottin building up hand-played layers old school style. A few tweaks of the Farfisa led our man to the world of sounds he grew up to: the soundtracks to Italian slasher B-movies (like those by Lucio Fulci, Bava, Argento & Alberto Martino), but also futuristic horror scenarios, cosmic travels and close encounters with space vampires... The die was set. Horror Disco melds these soundtrack and aural ideas with a 100% disco album. One that drifts away from most of the soulful elements of disco and one that is dirtier, warmer and less polished than contemporary Scandinavian nu-disco. The album is wide and varied - 'Slashdance' gives us a Goblin-esque robo-vocoder-disco, 'Roger Bacon' is pure cosmic groove, whilst the Italo-disco-Thriller 'Disco For The Devil' features the vocals of Italian-based, UK-born session master Douglas Meakin - who back in the day was lead vocalist in Simonetti's Easy Going and Crazy Gang cult disco projects.

(bangkok impact / munk / hannulelauri / bottin rmxs) some remix action. The originals by Bottin were already supported by people like The Magician, Mylo, Joakim, Seelenluft, Justus Köhncke, Agoria and many many more. Woh-oh-ooh!

Bottin brings us this juicy Artifact 4-tracker in super-limited-quantities. Dulce De Luna is an acid disco weapon with some sabor latino. Volver Al Campo is a psychedelic cosmic ritual chant (sounds like Adriano Celentano maxi-dosing mushrooms in the Italian countryside). El Caballero Oscuro serves as the main theme from John Carpenter's space-horror flick shot in the extraterrestrial jungle (only he didn't make that movie, yet) - Finally, we get a slab of low-hip high-energy madness for hardcore Italo heads (those who want the hypnotic synth machinery, not the demented vocals) - Get this quick before the usual discogs price bump

After whetting our appetites with the new italo "classic" Volevi Una Hit repress, Bottin and his Cristalli Liquidi project team up with the French-Italiano electro pair Deux Control (aka Justine Forever & Rodion) for a double take of this sweaty song about the colour red and the gentle carnal forces of nature. You might want to pick up some Italian to enjoy the lyrics. Along with two entirely different main versions, Bottin's sped-up dub and Deux Control's vocally sparse mix will serve electro-funk heads and low-cheese/high-energy italo lovers alike.

Repress!

The collectable Artifact imprint is taking a detour from incendiary and obscure disco re-issues into releasing even more obscure material. Mysterious Italian electro-wave band Cristalli Liquidi are featured here with a killer rare italo gem produced by Tinto B. (also known for Robots Are Un-American, re-released on Italians Do It Better last year). Inspired by a LCD Soundsystem song Tinto B. comes with this great record! We cant find the connection to the LCD Soundsystem track that supposed to have been his source of inspiration, and actually we dont care... its some of the best recent Italo disco we've heard in a while! If you are big on italo vocals the A side is for you, if instead you dig deep electro disco but without the chanting, the dub version on the flip side will more than certainly send you into italo space. Another hot Artifact release from mr. Bottin. Tip! (Limited supplies!)

Bottin is back with LP an unusual album: an instrumental album of faux "Library Music" aptly titled QUALITY TIME. Searching for a virginal sound rolling back to the zero degree in contemporary music, Quality Time explores the sonic range of 1980s era Casiotone portable synthesizer as is, with no filters or additional timbres modifying its sound aesthetics. An exercise in composition where the reduced plasticity of sound makes us imagine music as building bricks, rather than a commentary of the times. Quality Time is Library Music made out of sheer intellectual honesty, as opposed to the anonimity of producing music as a commodity. The Casiotone alphabet allows Bottin to assemble seductive instrumental tracks marked by alpha-numeric acronyms and interspersed with sourced fragments of dialogues recalling the contemporary existential alienation and postmodern idleness.

Bottin teams up with Francisco (Jolly Music, L.U.C.A.) for a drugged-out, sexed up, slo-mo psych-rock aptly titled LOVE LIFE. Old acquaintance Rodion steps in on remix duties, working deranged synth magic in the extended dj version. On the flipside, Argentina's Fernando Pulichino (2020 Soundsystem, Silver City) joins in with his flamboyant bass and shimmering guitars on DELTA TIGRE, an afro-cosmic sound contraption. The IchiSan remix heads up to the sky, all the way to synth heaven. Overall a compelling, throbbing disco-not-disco EP for adventurous djs and dancers in-the-know, who want to hear something different and juicy.

Italian weirdologist Bottin strikes again with another private pressing for Artifact Records. Side A starts off with an edit of a super rare italo-electro utterance, perfect for your breakdancing. A2 is Italian new wave, replete with passionate lyrics and funk guitars. B1 is a collab with balearic legend Leo Mas: Italian freestyle with a hint of new beat, isn't it? The closing cut is the weirdest of the bunch: trippy strings and & arps, throat singing & ecstatic chanting all around. Hot, hot, hot and limited as a night train on a holiday weekend.

Cult Italo post-wave group Cristalli Liquidi are back with another 12" maxi single. This time the production was carried out by the godfather of Italian electronic music Alexander Robotnick with some mysterious intervention from Bottin. Sciame (Italian for swarm) hits harder on the dancefloor then their previous releases, without losing a single drop of the italo lyrical magic.

Bottin is back with his highly collectible Artifact edits.

Only 200 copies!

Mysterious ensemble CRISTALLI LIQUIDI are back on Artifact with their second single. This is another all-Italian new wave affair entitled CANZONE REGISTRATA (Recorded Song). Of course we have no idea of what the song is about since the lyrics are in Italian, but it sounds awesome and just like the first single it was produced by BOTTIN. In addition to the juicy extended and dub versions we have remix duties aptly carried out by the Florentine godfather of italo disco ALEXANDER ROBOTNICK and Milanese dream-team LE MACCHINE (consisting of The Love Supreme & The Barking Dogs) who deliver a killer retro house (or maybe nu-new-beat?) remix ready to break the toughest dancefloor like an ice pick. Be quick, very limited supplies as always with this label. If it ends up like the first single, it will sell out even before actual release date!

After selling out all previous releases to elite djs and collectors worldwide, the highly mysterius Artifact imprint is back to its original aim, that is crafting obscure sonic weapons for disco ninjas! A side 15 Minutes is credited to Milanese crew Love Supreme and it's a mesmerizing disco rock rework that builds up to a climax that takes no prisoners. Bottin has been playing this to massive dancefloor slaughter and has finally decided to share the blame. On the flipside Speed is an enthralling car chase or grand prix if you wish, with throbbing bass, lasers and Cowley-esque synth stabs, while Frisbee is a rare italo groove, a funk gimmick topped by acid synth patterns, a latin lover voiceover and packs of sultry Italian girls chanting ''disco! disco!'' and definity getting what they are craving for. Limited to 200 on haute couture purple latex, ready for you to wear out (if your size is 12'', that is)
