Don Carlos – The Father of Italian Dream House

Don Carlos – Alone Paradise

“Back in those years if you were not elegant, you remained off the premises”

Carlo Troja (aka Don Carlos) lives in the northern Italian city of Varese – a small yet perfectly-formed settlement adorned with art nouveau villas. His sprawling DJ career began in the late ’70s and early ’80s. His production debut launched with a glorious bang in 1991, with the genre-defining ‘Alone’ arriving on Irma offshoot, Calypso Records. The track stood out in the most elegant of manners: managing to float with ethereal majesty above the often brash, obvious chords and hyped snare rolls of many of its piano house contemporaries. Bewitching pads, emotive chord progressions and levitating synths glide over crisp drums, delicate percussion and mood-enhancing bass – a meditative dream house archetype that magnificently endures to this day.

From ‘The Man Behind the Mystery’ – Juno Records interview here

Don Carlos Mixtape for Le Visiteur Online

Don Carlos put together an hour mix of classic Italian Dream House vibes for for Le Visiteur Online and quite simply who better to do it. Listen here

Sueno Latino

Sueño Latino by Sueño Latino and Manuel Goettsching performing E2-E4

Sueño Latino the band was Andrea Gemolotto, Claudio Collino, Davide Rizzatti, Riccardo Persi. In 1989, the group released the ambient house classic “Sueño Latino.” The track is based on Manuel Göttsching’s album-length E2-E4. In a later release (the Winter Version), Göttsching himself added guitar parts to the track.

Italian Dream House Origins

NOTE: Not to be confused with Italo Disco. At the tail end of the 1980s, a new take on deep house began to emerge from Italian studios. ‘Dream house’ drew inspiration from key U.S deep house records of the period – the spacey melodiousness of Larry Heard’s productions, and the rich jazziness of tracks originating in New Jersey in particular – but sounded distinctly different. Its’ ‘head-in-the-clouds’ feel – all rich chords, tactile basslines, fluid piano lines and starry electronics – made ‘dream house’ a uniquely Italian proposition. Lots of love with Lots of Arp synths, 909 drum machines and piano.

Vibraphone Records / The True Underground Sound of Rome

Music Collective born during the dawn of the ’90s, THE TRUE UNDERGROUND SOUND OF ROME has interpreted the native House verb of Chicago & Detroit according to a vision steeped in electronics destined then to mark history.

Amor Muere – Live

Amor Muere - Amor vive

Translated:
The music is a combination of synthesizers, processed vocals (or not), tapes and strings that generates a versatile sound and leads us to different sound spaces: from the danceable to the introspective. This presentation is specially prepared for the 2020 Poetry in Voz Alta Festival.

UNAM Lake House

Amor Muere represents a unique collaboration between four established artists, each with their own distinguished artistic endeavours. Mabe Fratti, a skilled avant-garde cellist, masterfully weaves together contemporary art pop and avant-garde influences, seamlessly blending improvisation, organisation, and melody in her music. Camille Mandoki’s compositions defy categorization, ranging from stumbling, decaying fairground music to menacing percussive flurries. Her vocals transcend conventional boundaries, bending and shaping sound into hauntingly beautiful and unconventional forms. Concepción Huerta expertly explores everyday sonic landscapes, blending field recordings, objects, and instruments using magnetic tape manipulation and synthesisers. Her artistry crafts immersive atmospheres, seamlessly merging ambient and noise elements while bridging analog and digital sound manipulation. Gibrana Cervantes, a Mexican musician, stands out as a violinist, composer, and improviser, combining classical and metal influences into a truly unique and innovative musical style.
