Hidden Things EP: A Deep Dive into Italy’s Underground Pulse
Alright, buckle up. We’re diving headfirst into Hidden Things EP, the 2012 brainchild of Patrick Di Stefano and Luca Doobie, two Italian maestros who clearly didn’t come to play games. Released under Apparel Music—a label that knows how to slap quality control on their beats—this EP is a raw, unfiltered punch in the gut for anyone sleeping on deep house and tech house grooves. And trust me, you don’t wanna be caught napping here.
Let’s talk tracks because that’s where the magic (and chaos) happens. First up: “Hidden Things (Tetsuya Narita & Kazuya Ninagawa Remix).” Damn, this remix hits like a freight train wrapped in silk. It starts off with these eerie synths creeping around like they own the place, then BAM—it drops into a beat so smooth it feels illegal. The bassline? Pure filth. Like, I’m talking about something that worms its way into your soul and refuses to leave. This isn’t just music; it’s an experience. You’ll remember this one when you're stuck in traffic or zoning out at work—it'll haunt you in the best way possible.
Then there’s “Nothing To Hide,” which slaps harder than your ex ever did. This track doesn’t mess around—it’s all pulsing rhythms and glitchy accents that make you feel like you’re losing your mind but loving every second of it. There’s no room for chill vibes here; this is peak energy bottled up and ready to explode. When those hi-hats kick in halfway through? Forget about it. Your heart rate spikes whether you want it to or not. Tracks like this remind you why electronic music can hit harder than any guitar solo.
Now, let’s get real for a sec. Why does this EP stick? Maybe it’s the way it refuses to sit still, constantly shifting between moody atmospheres and dancefloor bangers. Or maybe it’s because Patrick and Luca crafted something timeless—a record that could’ve dropped yesterday or ten years ago, and it wouldn’t matter. That’s the thing about good electronic music: it doesn’t age; it evolves.
But here’s the kicker—the unexpected twist nobody saw coming. Listening to this EP feels less like entertainment and more like therapy. Yeah, you heard me right. In a world full of noise, Hidden Things EP cuts through the clutter and forces you to confront… well, hidden things. Weird flex, but okay.
So if you haven’t spun this yet, what are you waiting for? Dust off your turntable, crank up the volume, and let Patrick Di Stefano and Luca Doobie take you on a ride you won’t forget anytime soon. Just don’t blame me when your neighbors start complaining—they probably hate fun anyway.
