Ajello are Luca ‘DJ Rocca’ Roccatagliati & Fabrizio ‘Taver’ Tavernelli, the residents at Italy’s infamous Maffia Club. After doing various bits and pieces for a bunch of happening labels, the pair have ended up at Rebirth where they have completely excelled themselves. ‘Moody Bang’ comes on like a slice on New York post punk disco from back in the day, before two oozing atmospherics synth riffs come in, the first has got a certain Sabres Of Paradise ‘Haunted Dancehall’ feel about it, closely followed by soaring pads which bring the Simple Minds Balearic anthem ‘Theme For Great Cities’ to mind. As ‘Moody Bang’ ducks, dives & develops you suddenly realise you’re lost in forward thinking electronic space funk of the highest order. Now that’s a good thing.

AJELLO feat. FRED VENTURA ‘I’m Not Ready’ out now on Clone!!
Happy to announce a collaboration with amazing voice of Fred Ventura on the track ‘I’m Not Ready” remixed by Savino, out on  Clone CD album “Disco Modernism”.
Soon it follow a 12″ on vinyl with the track, a slamming italo disco monster which Fred produced together with Ajello. Super phat basslines (slightly reminding of classic Bobby Orlando tracks) and typical italo disco synths.
Fred Ventura is 25 years active in the music business and that’s being celebrated with a nice anniversary collection with some of the best tracks he’s done! A limited edition CD release with 12 tracks produced by Fred together with guys such as I-f, Mauro Farina, Alden Tyrell, Roberto Turatti and others. Classic tracks from the very obscure ‘Love Theme’ from ‘Flexxy Ball’ to the master piece with I-f ‘I cut my Heart out’ and a previously unreleased track with Ajello! 25 years of classic timeless dance music by Fred Ventura and friends!

AJELLO
MOODY BANG EP
REBD003 -  Release Date : End Of October 2008

Ajello are Luca “DJ Rocca” Roccatagliati and Fabrizio “Taver” Tavernelli, resident DJs at the infamous Maffia Club of Reggio Emilia.
A fresh face in the Mantra Vibes Camp, Ajello has released his debut ‘Spasm Odyssey’ album in 2006 and two EPs for Radius and Deep Freeze, plus remixes for labels like Rebirth, Codek, Distinct’ive, Rekids and Philtre.
With “Moody Bang” and “Dolphy” he is again on a mission to provide a modern twist on the italo disco with a very spacey futuristic vibe: Melodic, chuggy, dreamy and…an incredible, sweet and seductive vibe ! Both tracks have been re-edited by Ajello’s friends In Flagranti and Dicky Trisco (Boogie Corporation, Disco Deviance)!
Remixes come courtesy of two great up and coming producers from Germany. Langenberg from Essen drops a warmer and deeper mix between chicago house and Stripped down Detroit with a sophisticated sound that will addict the hips across the world. Tensnake from Hamburg delivers an Italo-disco tinged nu-disco remix crossed with deep house affair and solid synth-driven disco-boogie !

4) MOODY BANG (DICKY TRISCO RE-EDIT)
