Slabs Of The Tabernacle

The Tabernacle boys return with a second summer slab of their favoured Italo sound, this time courtesy of Brighton-based DJ/producer Casionova.

One of the first DJs in the UK to revive Italo, back in the late nineties, he held a 2001 club residency at Molecular Breakdown at Brighton’s The Jazz Place, before teaming up with Spruxxx and Human Shield’s Ali Renault to create the Cyber Dance label, an outlet for their Italo fantasies. In 2006, he founded Magic Waves, the first UK internet radio station dedicated to Italo Disco, which he manages and programmes alongside Spruxx.

Since 2005, Casionova has also offered up several of his own takes on the Italo sound, with four vinyl releases on Cyber Dance. He’s also become something of a globetrotter, taking his Italo mission to the clubs of Los Angeles, Rotterdam, Minneapolis, San Francisco, London, Bangkok and New York.
