It was always clear from that opera sample, that the Italoboyz’ imagination stretched further than most. The lonely female soprana on 2007′s ‘Viktor Casanova’ helped introduce paradoxical samples to techno and house, a small spark ahead of today’s wacky sample furnace.
Irony and contrasts are everywhere now, but the Italoboyz were one of the first to cause surprise – and laughter – on minimal techno dancefloors with a beautiful curve ball, and with the release of the Italian duo’s debut album ‘Bla Bla Bla’, Marco Donato and Federico Marton have moved on, yet again.
This time there are no bizarre samples, because the pair created their own strange and exotic musical flourishes from scratch by recording live jam sessions with musicians.
Donato explains from his studio in London, how the pair arrived at their debut album.
