Kano

 

Kano are obviously heroes for us, amazing name, and classic tracks. Full on italo synth robots.

We’ve posted a couple of the greatests but thought we share some other nice little treats. From full on camp and happy sounds of ‘Ahjia’, to the darker head moving sounds of ‘Its a war’ (Im  quite surrprised we havent posted that yet) with its well crafted selection of synth action. Santiago’s edit of ‘its a war’ is pretty good to, but the original has got more feeling to it. These two both appeared on the Its a War record in 1980.

Also included is the emotional italo journey that is ‘China Star’, which was on the ‘Another Life’ LP in 1983.

Great listening, great dancing

Mezzomatic – Just Another Life (Kano 'Another life' edit)

Little edit here of Kano’s ‘Another Life’, now the original is one of our favourite tracks ever…..and this doesn’t come close to beating the orignal (in our opinion), but its cool enough and has a bit more cross over potential, worth a listen anyway!

KANO – Ikeya Seki / Kavinksy – Grand canyon

Kano were well ahead of their time, epic italo-disco bangers that still sound up to date, we’ve posted them before, and we’ll post them again!
Ikeya seki is an instrumental cracker, which was sampled by the french ed-banger ball’beg Kavinksy, …..he did a ‘decent’ job, but not a touch on the original. I’ve included both tracks, and you can make up your own mind.
