Stil vor Talent welcomes gizA djs for their debut on the label with ‘Italian Situation’, a two-track EP moving between indie dance, house, and disco-infused grooves. The Italian duo delivers a release shaped by contrast, nostalgia, and sharp observation, translating personal reflection into dancefloor-ready storytelling.
Opening track ‘Come Back Darling’ is rooted in a dusty vocal discovery that sparked a deep dive into the emotional core of house music. Built on 90s-inspired grooves, conga-driven percussion, disco-tinged brass stabs, and piano riffs, the track radiates soulful warmth and uplifting energy, channeling classic house spirit through a contemporary lens.
On the flip side, ‘What Are You Doing in Italy’, created together with Gianpietro, takes a more direct and playful turn. Born from an organic studio jam, a funky bassline and soulful sampling form the backbone of a track that blends irony with quiet protest. The recurring vocal question reflects the artists’ own conflicted feelings about cultural stagnation and change, while ambient recordings from a real Italian restaurant add an authentic, bittersweet texture.
Together, the EP captures two responses to the same emotional state: nostalgia and doubt, affection and frustration, movement and reflection. ‘Italian Situation’ is cinematic, groove-driven and true to life, marking an exciting first statement from gizA djs on Stil vor Talent.
Release date: February 13th, 2026.
