Gigi D'Agostino Mysteries

[Sottosopra]

Maybe you are familiar with the "iceberg chart", which is used for topics that have some strange hidden content, which is not visibile for most people on first sight. 

I thought that we can share our "Gigi mysteries" in this topic. 

Content that only a handful of persons know, which was never really promoted and we don't know why it's there. 

 

I start with:

Also the tracks from the old Some Experiments tracklist that cannot be found "out there" + "Gioia Ardente" from the cancelled Those Were The Days Vinyl... what tracks were those? Were they just renamed? And wich remain unreleased?)

there's also a vinyl record that contains a slightly different but full version of "Ikeya Seki" out there. Other than the track being leaked to youtube a while back with obvious noises like pops and clicks, there's no further info.

I'm not going to mention some that are necessarily unknown here, but for anyone not involved in Gigi's world, perhaps they could be.

Songs by other artists released as if they were solely written by Gigi: songs like Vivo Per Lei or Cocco, which are known to have been produced by Daniele Mondello, sometimes with Express Viviana, but without credit for their work.

Mix or track numbers: If Luca's mixes go from 22 to 27, and Gigi's from 51 to 55, were there really other mixes between these numbers, or were they random titles? Also, the "rituals" (Form 12-33) didn't have their numbers from 1 to 11. Did these also exist independently of being excerpts from longer songs?

Cancelled works: Perhaps one of the most popular topics here, but it doesn't hurt to add it. Works like Mondo Reale or Psico Dance, which were announced but never saw the light of day.

Undiscovered Demodags: Gigi and Luca have posted over a thousand demos on YT, but no source has yet been found for many of them. For example, none of demos 600-700 have been found. How can these missing demos be found? Or are these works never before shown?

Lost episodes of Il Programmino: Another popular one here. Due to the passage of time and the poor preservation of radio broadcasts from 2003, several broadcasts of the show are completely lost, with very little chance of ever being found.

Ethias Arena: A slightly more popular one among the general public. There were mixing problems for the DJ. Gigi, frustrated, only played four songs and left without even saying goodbye to the audience, leaving the show half-finished.

Full songs found where you wouldn't expect them: Emotions on a reissue of The Riddle single, For Love on a Media Records promo, among several examples of songs where a full recording was found where you wouldn't expect to find them.

[hlennarz]

And yet both "For Love" (played longer live) and Emotions (fade-out 1 loop before the album version does) don't seem to be their true full versions either.

There's also unique versions of tracks that only appeared on some obscure releases:

- L'Amour Toujours (Mix From Spanish "La Passion E.P. Vinyl)

- The Riddle (Video Mix). Only on the ZYX and later Canadian CDM

- The Riddle (Instrumental version with the first beat gone and only the "Oh Yeah" vocal on Dutch CDM)

- Full TF2 version of Un Giorno Credi on the withdrawn Essential Digipak & Best Of CDs by ZYX

- Unique Version of Un Giorno Credi on Deejay Parade Estate mix sampler

- Super (Super Piano Bar Mix)

- The "Demo" (?) versions of Angels' Symphony, New Year's Day & Guitar on "Le Voyage Estate"

and probably more.
