DNA - La Serenissima

[@quack_doc]

I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes..a long journey has come to an end..i was searching for this song for 22 years. Could just remember the Sample from a Tape I got back in the 90's. Stay healthy everyone!

[@cleopatra6770]

I searched for this for over 20 years too, had it in my head all that time. Absolute banger of a tune 😍

[@funnystuff9954]

Wow yer, wow yer. 😎

[@jamesmagnum]

I know the feeling, known the original tune in my head, bugged me lately n been looking for months. It's overwhelming when you find it. Cheers.

[@maurizio76]

💕👍. We could live a time there was less music than nowadays, and meanwhile it was hard to catch it, on tapes - when u were lucky - and even harder to get the title. Internet created these magic moments - tears in ur eyes u said ? yes so true - we could find them back. And make them revive. And get them forever as a part of us till the moment we will leave this planet.

[@leekhan7401]

I'm glad you have found it its nice when that happens

[@garrymckeon7535]

Remember playing this first time in Faliraki /Rhodes 1990.....glory days ,wish I was back there

[@SURRIE27]

Jesus!!! If your not listening to this to this day… well you will never know music like it. Bring back the days of 80s & 90s. I miss you. Stay raving everyone. 💃🏼💃🏼

[@jacquelinemorris7959]

To all who were there late 80s/early 90s in the warehouses, the clubs, the house parties....Peace and love to you all! Keep the vibes alive! 😎🙋‍♀️🕊✊💫

[@alfredphilipse8463]

I live in Holland near the German border. Back in the early 90's I've always listened BFBS. That was the radiostation for the British forces settled in Germany. That's where I heard it.. Blew me away and never understood why this never reached the Dutch charts.. Still loving it after all these years.. Thanks for posting !

[@matthewwarner2121]

I know the DJ who would of been playing that track on BFBS in the early 90's. He loves this track.

[@ianbensosn6636]

I was station in Berlin cutting the rug to this masterpiece

[@joboatthecrossroads]

DNA is the moniker of two British dance music producers, Nick Batt and Neal Slateford, best known for releasing a remix of Suzanne Vega's "Tom's Diner" in 1990. The gentlemen made a piece of timeless music, thanks to them for that.❤ 

[@danieldiver11]

D is Doog, Neal's nickname. N is for Nick. A is for Akai, the sampler they used to nick (no pun intended) all the samples from.

[@B1SCOOP]

Nick Batt currently runs biggest synth review channel on youtube called Sonic State.

[@freddiebozwell7049]

[@altymir3615]

I first heard this in 90-91 on a local London pirate radio station in my bedroom and then hardly ever heard it again, now I've found it!

[@wagnercarlos4940]

chega a arrepiar....maravilhosa

[@AutPen38]

I would have loved to have been in the studio when Slateford and Batt had the bright idea of mixing the Rondo Veneziano tune from 1981 (which was popularised in the UK in '83 as the theme to a BBC show called "Hospital Watch") with Clivillés and Cole's 'Seduction' bassline from 1989. They seem to have played the latter (0:55) rather than sampled it, but it's quite magical how it fits with the faux classical sample.

[@sidneirosadasilva6011]

Love this. I have been looking for it for 30 years.

Ha! I looked this up because of a book I’m reading, at the moment set in Venice and they’re using the term. :) “Q” by Luther Blissett.

[@daveharrington7737]

An absolute classic from 1990. For me it’s all about the piano break at 04:09. I still can’t believe that this track isn’t available on iTunes, at least I have the original vinyl & CD.

[@kevsuperflytowle7295]

I did have it on vinyl but when I stopped spinning I donated all my vinyl to a fellow dj and long time friend Joe Shotter AKA Nebula.but this tune still sounds so sweet 32 years later

[@AutPen38]

Complex licensing issues (it's full of samples and it was on a tiny independent label) probably mean it will never be available on iTunes. The faux classical tune by Rondo Veneziano (which was famously used as the theme to a BBC series called "Hospital Watch" in 1983) is available on Spotify though. Various videos for it (including live performances with orchestras) are available on YT. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j2Wpo6GoeZydeaM
