Neapolitan composer, producer, and keyboardist Giorgio Lopez sets sail on Berlin-based label Cosmic Romance with his Sud des Îles. Navigating between 80s-inspired grooves, French boogie, and sun-kissed atmospheres, the record unfolds like a musical travelogue, following fictional skipper Georges Taty and his crew of musicians aboard the sailboat Sud des Îles, caught between racing waves, late-night jams, and dockside dreams.
From the whirling groove of Voyager Sans Bouger to the breezy atmosphere of Toujours Distante, the eight tracks on Sud des Îles invite listeners to drift away in rhythm and reverie through a songwriting that is both infectious and evocative. Stories of escapes (real or imagined), romantic illusions, and nostalgia-tinted euphoria weave together, propelled by Giorgio Lopez’s arrangements and distinctive keyboard work, as well as by the well-crafted production, carried out together with Executive Producer and label owner Ed Longo.
Featuring lead vocals by Stella, Master Phil, Amanda Roldan, and Bernardino Femminielli, together with the équipage de Sud des Îles itself - a tight-knit ensemble of acclaimed musicians from Berlin and Naples – Sud des Îles is an invitation to ride the waves to a neon-lit night on a faraway island: no passport required.
