Release Notes:
Secondo is Italian/Serbian producer Radovan
Scasascia. Born in Zurich in 1975, his super-funky
minimal discofied electronic dance music has been
appearing sporadically on Soul Jazz Records since
2003 and on his own minimal electronic label, Dreck
Records since 2000, where he also releases the
music of artists such as AM/PM, Antonelli and
Strategy.
His most recent appearance was on the Soul Jazz
Singles CD alongside Rekid (AKA Radio Slave and one
half of Quiet Village), Kode9, Subway, DJ Rupture
and other similarly like-minded electronic
pioneers.
SecondoÆs love of disco and minimal European
electronic music produces a unique funky-electronic
cut up style that shows his close links with the
micro-house sound of GermanyÆs Kompakt label as
much as that of the New York Disco labels of the
late 70s and early 80s. This led to earlier
releases such as his celebrated Tom Tom Club cut-up
a few years back.
SecondoÆs music features thousands of micro-samples
and on ôA Matter of Scaleö, his first album on Soul
Jazz Records, the music successfully reflects his
aim of reconstructing these minute sonic fragments
into new compositions that somehow maintain the
atmosphere of the originals as well as creating new
worlds.
As much at home with his own material as other
peoples, his remixes have appeared on a diverse set
of European and American electronic artists û Felix
da Housecat, Richie Hawtin, Harrison Crump, James
Din A4, Kammerflimmer Kollektief and many more.
