Without question, Kano's "I'm ready" is one of the biggest and most celebrated Italo-Disco singles ever released, shortly following its release in 1980, it became an anthem on underground US dance floors (as well as in its native Italy). For his all-time dance music classic, Kano combined elements of 1970s disco, funk and r&b while extensively using synthesizers and percussive handclaps as well as raw-processed and vocoderized vocals inspired by US and European disco, now we are blessed with a mind-blowing shizzeltastic re-imagination by Mousse T. enriched with a great piano, spell binding funked-up groove and a break to die for. Absolutely essential.
