Further to enrich this reissue, the release is completed with two splendid edits by the Australian DJ-producer George Hysteric, recognized as one of the world’s foremost authorities and a leading figure in Italo-Disco.

Slow Motion affiliate Radondo returns to the “A UFO” free edit series with his high-octane rework of Mac Jr.’s “Elephant Song.” The vibrant energy of the original track is enhanced by Radondo’s signature percussive instrumentation and metallic flair. By sacrificing the original vocals, he creates a version that focuses more on the instrumental elements, capturing the captivating, energetic essence of the 1984 ZYX gem.
”Stop” is the emblem of Italo-Disco par excellence even if in 1983 it was inserted by Carlo Favilli and Stefano Zito on the B-side of the 12”of the nascent label House of Music. However, the song, although recorded in a hurry and with evident sound defects, is the perfect example of the musical genre that was developing in Italy in those very early 80s. Now, four decades later, Stop 4 Remixes breathes new life into the cult classic with four dynamic reworks. Woody Bianchi delivers a masterclass in mixing with ‘Pushed Up’ while Danilo Braca (aka Danyb) offers two deep, expansive edits tailored for discerning dancefloors. Dirtyelements & Drunkdrivers bring the fire with their ‘Acid Re-Solution Remix’ that’s full of passion, precision and some nice wild energy. These are great tributes to a track that helped launch the Italo-disco movement into orbit.

Brazilian artist Tjor returns to Wrong Era with his 5-track EP ‘Multiflex’. This release showcases his unique blend of brooding arrangements and hopeful, esoteric tones, highlighting his remarkable ability to continuously evolve sonically.

Swelling to an acidic echo of the purity of 1980s Chicago house, his innovative approach courses through the track.
With the reissue of ”Magic” the circle of the works originally published by Eyes Records and composed in the earliest 80s by Celso Valli is completed: Future State, Blue Gas and now precisely Five Sinners. Best Record thus creates ”the triplet” of the Italo-Disco operas made by the immense musician from Bologna. This release includes also a new captivating version of ”Magic” skillfully remixed by the talented Italian-Australian DJ-producer Dave Mathmos.
