Andrea Sartori cooks up a hunky contemporary take on Augusto Martelli's library-styled jazz-funk chaser "Round D Minor" from 1973, with a mighty extended Dub Mix from Fabrizio Mammarella. It kicks off with bursting bass-bubbles accompanied by a grand piano, gradually mutating into synthetic squeals. In round two sizzling hihats enters the race, joined by stabby rhodes more likely to come out of Chicago or Detroit than the Italian Autostrada. Finally a raw live-bassline sets the scene somewhere in the intersection where post-punk meets boogie, crosses over to jazzy deep house and then speeds off onto the spacedisco-highway, leaving a subtle smell of burnt rubber emanating from your turntable.
