2K8 Baby!!


















Hello,
and a happy new year to you all!
Here's a symbolic upgrade to start 2008.
Last year i posted here the cover of an italian song, originally by Lucio Battisti, called the Veliero (the Sailboat) which was shorty after sampled by Lindstrøm for his Contemporary fix track. This song has encountered very incouraging feedbacks and some of you keep on, one year after, telling me about this re-discovery and different ways to enjoy it, going from endless car drives to tokyo subway's rides.


So here's another song by the acclaimed genius of the italian 70s variety, and this time again, it's a sailing topic that leads Lucio to deal with another kinda "boat"...I leave you now with Windsurf windsurf, an hymn to the pleasures of "la planche a voile" on the lombardian lakes...Listening to this track on a sunny winter's day like today would almost make you feel like springtime is at the door!
