Primavera

Tullio De Piscopo is an Italian drummer/ singer/ top session percussionist whose 1983 single Stop Bajon went worldwide, slowly and gently, from Italian danceterias out to the rest of the world, to the early Chicago house scene to the Balearics, across Europe from Munich to Glasgow. It was a minor hit in the UK, one of those records bought by people when they returned from their fortnight in the sun.

Over at Paisley Dark's Bandcamp page you can find a lovely slice of late summer re- edit action courtesy of Jezebell. Slinky and slightly darker than the original, nicely insistent. Should work a treat- free to download too. And if you want more, here's Tullio on Italian TV playing the song live in glorious VHS upload low fi.

Stop Bajon


This sudden burst of decent weather- sunshine, in April, uh?!- demands something sunny and suited to beer garden/cafe bar terrace/ghettoblaster in the park/beach at sundown. This 1983 track from Italian drummer/singer Tullio De Piscopo is ideal. It's a crossover record- Italian disco, a minor hit in the UK in 1987, a record played by Ron Hardy and Frankie Knuckles in Chicago house clubs, by Alfredo in Ibiza, at Shoom and Phuture, by Theo Parrish and at countless other broadminded establishments.
