Sold out at source ! 2022 marks the release of a new single by Maestro Piero Umiliani. The music of Umiliani, composer of over one hundred and fifty soundtracks as well as of the immortal Mah Nà Mah Nà, is one of the absolute heritages of Italian musical history and, thanks to the commitment of DJs from all over the world and specialized labels, continues to surprise and to always be rediscovered. The latest extraordinary novelty that sees him as the protagonist is a new 45 rpm, entitled "Fried Bananas"
The song written in 1975 for a sounding album released in very few copies and never reissued, has a very current disco rhythm with lounge and funk veins and is destined to become an immediate cult among fans and collectors. The release, co-produced by DJ Frankie Fortyfive and the crew of Maledetta Discoteca, presents the original song and a re-edited version on the B side by DJs Keedoman, Enzo Pietanza and DJArnold Maddaloni.
The piece sounds very current, the re-edit by Keedoman, Enzo Pietanza and DjArnold Maddaloni renews it respecting its essence and original musicality and, twenty years after his death, Maestro Piero Umiliani is more alive than ever.
