.
You might have heard that Afro Art Bossman‘s favorite Bar , The Chachacha is no more but no fear he has a new favorite now thats conveniently celebrated in the Funky little seven inch single you hold in your hands.
First the music then time for a drink..
The A side is a beaty take on the Tango but no Gotan smoothness here, instead it roars along like a Vespa on amphetamines with a distorted bassline roaring at the traffic lights and some beefy drums and tasty horn breaks to get those dancers feet flying..and an accordionist to give it that Funky Fray Bentos Flavor…
The B is a special Paul Murphy mix, much much more drums and some pounding timbales as he takes the tango boat to Cuba.
The tune was brought to the Afro Art table by DJ Farrapo (Baiano Vem) but it was renamed by Paul Murphy in honour of one of his favorite bars, “Malanotte” (it means Evil Night by the way.. hmmm ..must have had one or two many glasses of the local hooch) in the vilage of Bellano in Italy which is situated near Hollywood actor George Clooneys house in Lake Como.
There are rumours that the Legendary Star pops in for the odd glass of Vino.. Maybe he’s heard the record and wants to check it out??
