Alberto Melloni – Lago Lungo EP

Alberto Melloni is back on one of his home labels with a four-tracker that blends his signature mix of disco, house and Italo. The title track sets the mood with steady kicks and shimmering hi-hats topped with a rich piano melody that makes for a nice dynamic and atmospheric escape. ‘Promised Land ‘takes a darker turn with sharp beats and pulsating synth stabs in a late-night groove then ‘Paradise Pie’ layers sun-kissed chords with textured percussion and acid-tinged undertones. Closing the EP in style, ‘Only You’ brings a funk-infused finale with smoky vocals, vocoder effects and shimmering mirrorball energy that reflect Melloni’s playful musical universe.
