Italians Do It Better Italians Do It Better
Run by Mike Simonetti out of Jersey City, Italians Do it Better is a wonderfully eclectic label for sounds ranging from slow grooving synth-disco to 70s-inspired dance pop. The label's acts like Glass Candy, Desire and the Chromatics, as well as a great sense for stylish artwork have fuelled the hype around Italians Do It Better lately, and have surely led us to believe the label's claim.

Italians Do It Better unearth three unreleased demos by Italo disco legend Fred Ventura. The years might have gone by since they've been recorded some 25 years ago, but these tracks should still get the floors going with melancholic ease. Sweet.

Without a doubt one of our favourite pop songs of 2009, and also a Johnny Jewel production, Desire's separation anthem 'Don't Call' is another gem from Jersey City's great Italians Do It better label

Candy Castle (Track 04 on this Album) was reviewed:
The project of the Chromatics' Johnny Jewel, Glass Candy is pure pop glamour, liberally taking inspiration from 1980s dance music for their melancholic disco anthems, such as the slow-burning 'Candy Castle' off their 'Beat Box' album.

Texas' Farah writes the definitive ode to the 'Gay Boy' from the perspective of every woman who has ever met that special guy that has made her think, "too bad he's gay"... Ok, maybe not every woman, but from the perspective of one bold woman, who is willing to take those thoughts way too far!

Picked!

Glass Candy return on Jersey City's great Italians Do It Better label with an intense dose of dramatic synth-pop: Johnny Jewel's opulent riffs meet Ida No's characteristicly brittle vocal style for a catchy cross-over of new wave, electro-disco and indie dance. Irresistibly psychedelic!
