Absolute Italian gold from 1990. Peeping right over into the house canyon while retaining all of Italo’s sophistication, Ricky Montanari’s Key Tronics Ensemble was a driving force in the sound during the early 90s. “House Of Calypso” was their debut, and it came with finessed, emotional key-stroking hook that lifts relentlessly. The remix version features a dizzying solo on the peak, the softhouse version is a little more spacious and lighter in the drums. For most, though, it’s straight to the Paradise version – an out-and-out Balearic anthem that’s still enraptures 27 years later. Its first repress in 10 years, this is long overdue.
