Secchi (Stefano Secchi) is a music producer and disc jockey who took the 90’s into the Italo-house destination it was heading for. Following the huge success of Italian house productions as Black Box in the late 80s it was written on the walls where the playful Italo-disco sound was heading. “I Say Yeah” is a single from 1990 which takes the most important formulas of Italo-house and converts it into a powerhouse groove. The song has its concerns where our bystander watches the rise of a pop star who eventually becomes addicted to more than success. More of the interest in rhythm are the ingredients in this production where Secchi takes each element a step further. From the piping house keyboards to the percussion taking its own course this piece does mark an entry to the 90s where the club scene reaches its peak, again.
I have taken the 12” versions of “I Say Yeah” and readministered a new dose to this anthem for a new ReStructure Mix. One of the main factors for my new arrangement is the use of Secchi’s focus - the beats, bass and percussion.
