Its also on eBay now: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gigi-Dagostino-Lu-Psico-Dance-2-Cd-In-Uscita/302763635562 Genere: Pop Rock

Wow, it seems official enough (as it can be as of yet), "Amazon" being its seller and not some 3rd party… lets hope for the best! Also it says 2 CD which is correct for the 22 EUR price. :-) Lets hope its not mixed! Interesting thing: Gigi D'Agostino & Lu (Artist) - Is "Lu" the new alternate name of Luca? :O Or is it just a typo?

I don't think it either :) But I am ready for any surprise! :-) I think now they're in process of building a more wide audience for the upcoming release. Btw @Marios7, since its called "Psico" dance, I think the most important style is going to be "psy" on this album, in Gigi/Luca's specific interpretation. I like this style a lot, at least the demos which we've heard as of yet! :) Gigi has experienced with so many styles throughout his career, starting with mediterranean progressive, then following with pop-dance/pop, sometimes kinda' instrumental, lento violento/hardstyle, to (the now so popular) psy-trance - actually this "psy" sound-line fits Gigi's style very much. Its almost like lento speeded up: the splitted vocals, the dark tone of the tracks, the added reverb, the "doubled bass", everything fits on lento as well, except the speed of these tracks of course. Gigi wants to be on the top once again, to be heard globally, to be a phenomenon in not just Italy, but in all the clubs... Lets see if he succeeds to manage it, the path chosen is not bad :)

FB video: michaelmilazzovoice/videos/1993325344072630 I wonder if its Gigi & Luca's own track, sounds like it! :) Sounds awesome imo (do anyone know where this vocal is from?) Btw Gigi also posted some new insta about yesterday live (and btw he re-shared some other peoples insta post, and not deleted it, whatta):

Ah well yes, in the meantime I also read it in the comments that there will be no stream at all (they stopped it before Gigi would start), maybe some highlights in an aftermovie.. bah.

What It seems there is an official livestream! Hope its going to be there when Gigi starts too! Now Kygo is playing, they were streaming it live! https://www.facebook.com/pg/namelessmusicfestival/videos/?ref=page_internal

http://www.djmagitalia.com/gigi-dagostino-nuovo-singolo-axwell/ Ah, what a coincidence! :) Tonight Gigi is going to play @ Nameless Music Festival (where he is a last-minute announcement, cannot even find him on official flyers), just after Axwell & Ingrosso, on the same (main)stage. How strange that the new track is also an Axwell & Ingrosso remake - oh wait, guess its not bad for marketing.. ?! :D (and btw Armin is also going to play on the same stage where Gigi does, just tomorrow) :-)

Well the only sad thing I can see there, is that it is just being released next week, and airs on radio on 22th June... I don't think that Psico Dance may arrive in the meantime, but who knows. It would seem logic to me to release Psico Dance in July this way, so this month could be all for the introduction of the new release. But we'll see.

@Marios7, @hlennarz: You have to decide if they release Psico Dance with 10.000.000 copies all over the world (so you can buy it at any gas station, as Gigi told), or they sell it directly just to us fans, and some 10.000 of copies is enough as well, maybe even too much :-) There has to be proper media declaration, and this is what they're doing now, I guess. :D Gaining proper attention. Btw I don't like this track either, but this is a thing you have to decide: they (the whole world) won't just get up from the bed and start searching on the term "lento violento" or "gigi dag", then realize "Oh thats so cool now I'm a fan of this!", you have to find connection points, terms which people are searching for :D And the original track "In my mind" is something like this, plus here comes the good ol' LT tune which may whistle some bells in the heads of some ppl, and here you go. Attention gained. I want this release to be a success, but for it, it has to be sold, and this is pure business. Its not just a simple CD which "should be released", but we're also talking about sales number, which I don't think were so high as sky with e.g. "Lento Violento Man- La Musica Che Pesta" or even with "Suono Libero" - because mainly only the CORE fans bought it (and they were only success at Italy, mostly). If you want to reach out to other peoples, you have to show them yourself, they won't search for you on they own.. that is my point. … and I sincerely hope that Psico Dance won't be in this style, and this is just what it seems it is, pure business :-D

@Marios7: I think this is just a teaser for the compilation, to let a potential "new" audition get involved. :-) Gigi & Time Records (and most of it Time) shouldn't only think of us (fans), but instead the whole world :D The world "knows" LT + they like the general EDM style of this new track = successful teaser for the new compilation. I think this may be the beginning of something. Time wouldn't just put the compilation there with "here you go, click on buy thx", but instead it needs some proper intro, so more people could "join" to the club. This could far be worse, don't be so pessimistic! :-)

WHAT ... THE ... ACTUAL... FUCK!?!? Release date: 2018.06.08. Radio air date: 2018.06.22.

Actually he can do that :-) Not fair enough and there would be ways to do it much better, but he can do that. But IMO now he does many things to comfort us while we're waiting, e.g. you can listen to the lento tracks on his channel, listen to his mixes, the new unreleased tracks even on Spotify, or the earlier uploads, older releases, etc. He also tries to keep up the fans with his insta/twitter/yt uploads, what other thing could he do. Well yes, it was a fault to say "coming in the first weeks of January", when the release was definitely not 100% ready yet (or we may not know). Btw not a single release was an easy one around Gigi ever, it is just the same story now as always. You have to get used to it if you're following Gigi. :-) I believe that something is definitely coming, and that now we must be really close (lol now I sound like Time Records x'D). But c'mon check his insta, since April-May he started posting regularly, now multiple times per week. If nothing else, that should mean something. He has 22 posts, 11 of which is posted in about 1 month, many others are from 2017.

In the last couple of days/weeks, he's using Twitter & Instagram more than ever :) Hope its a good sign! Also in his new videos it seems like he is walking somewhere in a hurry.. maybe he's bringing the new Psico Dance CD to us by his own feet, thats why it takes so long :D

@hlennarz: Ah, too bad that it isn't possible to find this release anywhere on the net for buying, as I can see it was only released in Spanish… :/ I'd find it interesting to hear the differences. Also the demo version of Put on your red shoes is pretty interesting, with somehow little bit out of tune vocals, and an earlier sound. Put On Your Red Shoes (Gigi D'agostino Bozza 2002) https://www68.zippyshare.com/v/GrspOPop/file.html

I'm not sure if you can share such unreleased gold pieces here, but this one is definitely interesting! It has been shared in a FB fan group, with the following comment: "Il passaggio radiofonico nell'ottobre 1998, mesi prima dell'uscita nel 1999. Rarità. Registrata dalla puntata del 17.10.98 di Tony H. " https://www84.zippyshare.com/v/SXH9X4pO/file.html What do you think about it? 🙂 So many things have been modified by Gigi after this demo, so the final version became much better imo! The vocal is just "too much" in this early version with it constantly repeating in various forms, in the released version it was a good idea to have some "breaks". The synth is also little bit "too much" in this version. But its definitely interesting to hear, that whad led to the final success! 🙂

well it seems its still not Gigi's Time...

I don't think it will be released... the "Robotica" mixes are not for physical release imho, only for media representation.

I'm hoping for no more remakes / remixes of his own good ol' tracks, but new materials instead! :) (i know i know, the new L'amour Toujours must definitely be released) Next week its almost end of month, did TimeRec lied to us again, or the promotion gets started? Lets see :)

Btw they should start advertising Psico Dance.. curious if its gonna happen in the next days or not, as they told someone on FB. :) In case not, then we can also skip June as a release date.

So as we can currently tell, there may be 3 styles on this compilation: psico (maybe most of the tracks?), some lento, and some "soft" ("elettro gigidag") tracks. I wonder what may be the percentage between them? :) 50-25-25? Would seem to be fair.

The vocal is interesting enough, seems out of tune sometimes. The rest of it is okay for me :) Btw I don't think this is the exact version that would get out for release (but who knows) [if it is inteded for release].

LOL! I just realized, if you look at the Psico Dance advent calendar, it ends at week 24th. Which is btw, June 11-17. How huge troll Gigi would be, if he somehow happen to saw this advent calendar before, and he is about to release the disc when we hit the end of our calendar... It would be epic! (if u read this Gigi dont do it pls, just release it right away xd)

Oh, I heard your voice asking for my guidance! Here we go! *Captain PsicoDance flies away*

(BTW a little off, but I have to mention this aspect: If Bortolotti and his "team" manages to spread the lento/futurenoize style with a better success - using media, radio/television, social stuffs etc - than Gigi would have been able to ever do it, then also Gigi himself is going to win a big on it ^^)

I'm sure there were no "singing" vocal in it back in 2015 (just like now, only the "einz zwei polizie" vocal part), the only thing which makes the naming different is that back in 2015 I tried to write down the name of the tracks using the released track title if it exists, and right now I gave a f4k. :D Of course, I cannot remember 100%, but they must be almost identical versions. (and btw would you call it a different version if Gigi has tweaked some pot here and there, added some extra cymbal etc?) @Erdbeer Wolf: I agree, Gigi is definitely about to play it safe, and not risk playing styles which the community may accept a bit more difficult. However I presume he could easily play lento now, I think the crowd would like it, what do you guys think? Austrian peoples go there for LT, LP and the old classics, or for the new stuffs? I think the youth now is accepting the "weird" stuffs much more easier than before (if we can call lento "weird" :D). Just for curiosity, Gigi @ WUK austria, 3 years before (2015-04-16 - almost the same set as well): https://www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/1zh9skl9/gigi-dagostino-wuk-austria-2015-04-16.html (the positive thing is that he now actually does play lento, much, much more than he did before in Austria! maybe some years and we drop by to a live of Gigi outside Italy, and we happen to find ourselves at a hundred percent lento violento party, just like if we were in Italy? ;D)
