Don Carlos ‎– Paradise House [3xLP] [Irma 30th Anniversary Celebration]

Probably the most famous Italian house song” – Deep88 “I opened my set with this at Panorama Bar on Sunday morning; I haven’t had that many goosebumps since I stepped off Nemesis aged 14.” – Palms Trax “This one is – for sure – one of the most legendary tracks ever released and produced in Italy, it was the tune that opened the world up to the Italian house sound.” – Marco Faraone “The kind of song that makes the tribulations of life seem distant at worst, nonexistent at best” – Insomniac ‘Alone’ by Don Carlos is one of those records that unites a dance floor, no matter how diverse its collective tastes are. Originally released in 1991, it has stood the test of time, through countless reincarnations of house and the renaissance of the paradise movement he spearheaded. 40 years into his career, the man behind the iconic work, Carlo Troya, continues to DJ and produce to this day. In anticipation for his new 12″ on Ilija Rudman’s Imogen Recordings, he’s has put together an hour of paradise house favourites and answered a few questions.
