Closing 2025 with a bona fide classic. ‘Alone’ by Don Carlos, (not a mafia godfather), added depth to the Italian house sound which had been there or thereabouts since “the second summer of love”. Also, it arguably influenced the likes of Ron Trent and Chez Damier, as they came out with some quite similar sounding stuff on Prescription Underground a few years later. It’s the pianos that really push this track along, but other elements also need to fall into place. Such as the dense, vibrant underlay of what sounds like the foundation of ‘Sueno Latino’, acting as a flying carpet upon which all the other elements dance. It’s one of the ultimate tropical tracks given panoramic scope by a synthetic approach to orchestration. For which we should all be thankful.
