Habibi (Samba instrumental)

Best dig out another rare Italo egyptian latin electro-pop project Habibi poppy catchy vocal cut – beach partyt vibes.. then the different samba fire instrumental.

“Habibi is a joyous Egyptian-influenced Italo piece from the time that Egyptian Lover and Arabian Prince also had their Egyptian influences. Many of the typical elements of the ‘Italo-Disco’ era give the song a very friendly and reassuring mood, “Habibi” was conceived in 1983 by Arcangelo Li Calzi after the success of the one-off project Sahara Band, with Giancarlo Ragni, the skilled arranger from Genga that produced the piece entirely in his Vallemania Recording Studio, the studio where most of the afro-cosmic songs of the dee-jays of the nearby Baia degli Angeli were made, including the album “Africa Mediterranea” by Fabrizio Fattori. The artist Myriam Ferrucci did a lovely job on the graphic work on the cover which is represented in its original way. Worthy re-issue from the depths of the golden Italo era”.
