Following its auspicious series launch, with the ‘Adriano Italiano’ / ‘Blue Eyed Boz’ 12′, Ruff Edits follows-up with its second instalment, an equally enticing offering, coupling ‘Scandinavian Safari’ with ‘The Messenger’.

To launch this new series, edits don Greg Wilson extends a somewhat forgotten Italian cult club classic with a mad as toast title, which was originally issued a decade before the term Italo Disco was coined. ‘Prisencolinensinainciusol’ by Adriano Celentano, with its relentless rhythm and horns, has been described as a rap release before there was such a genre. This glorious oddity found favour both on UK dancefloors and throughout Europe, following its release in 1973. It was still a choice oldie when Wilson started out as a club DJ in ’75, and he would frequently play it, as a 7” single, at his club residencies in New Brighton, the Golden Guinea, the Chelsea Reach and the Penny Farthing , during the following years.
