It's simply a fake :D That's not the first time where we can see a unofficial album, especially on Amazon

I think is made by some fans..

Guys I contacted Amazon UK & Amazon US, both say the product exists, Amazon UK told me a specialist will get in touch with me within 2 business days and Amazon US told me any product sold by Amazon is official so I guess the album exists and I really hope so

Another "Best of" from Gigi, really...? Oh boy. Never mind, with this tracklist it's obviously a fake one - at least i really hope so.

Plus 25 tracks on one single disc and 21 on the second means that it would be a mixed compilation again, just like the Ieri e Oggi's were.

No thanks, i hope it's a joke...

It doesn't look very fake to me. There is a label, a shop to buy it and a release date. Can't get more real right now, we will have to see if I get the CD in December I just pre-ordered it Wink

Considering ZYX Music's history of releasing Gigi, this album is very likely to exist. They have made an released new remixes and compilations with Gigi before, the have the copyrights for Gigi, so they can do whatever they like.

Since I don't have the big overview of what is released and what is not, can anyone clear it up a bit? Laughing out loud

btw. it might not be the final tracklist ...I remember from the Italo Fresh Hits, that they posted "temorary" tracklists. Haiko who stood for the tracklist said they had to give a temporary tracklist ...so this could be as well.

Some are not even Gigi's tracks and berimbau musicore depends on what track is that...by the way I'm very suspicious about the album artwork... it's so already seen Laughing out loud

Yeah the tracklist does look very suspicious, some of the names look fake even, lol. Is most likely a 'temporary' tracklist like was said before, but hey, a new release is a new release and for a fanatic even with 0 new tracks it is a must-buy xD

Honestly we all should be a lil bit suspicious of the relase of this album, because it's all very strange... if anyone is very good in german language could call the zyx music asking for info about it

Well because it is on the ZYX site I think it is definitely a real release, but probably the tracklist will change. I don't know how they will fit 25 tracks on 1 CD unless it is mixed or all tracks are 3 mins each.

Although...ZYX did only release "The Essential Gigi D'Agostino" I think at the end of 2010...so I don't know why they would do another 'Best Of' so soon...

Wow, so it is officially announced by ZYX, thanks for the info Heinz! I agree with CFE, probably Gigi doesn't even have a clue about this release at all...

Things which still confuses me:

  • The cover is awkward, a bit modified version (just replaced the texts on the top) of the L'Amour Toujours cover from '99 - they don't have any designers / can't hire them for an upcoming release... ? Some fans could easily make a better one for free, just for fun.
  • Official press (pdf): they say its a "highlighted album", however ~140 minutes for a total of 46 tracks shouts for a mixed compilation, with each track being an average 3 minutes long, and not more. Waaay too many tracks for an unmixed album.
  • Tracklist makes no sense. "04. Star" (which is a masterpiece for sure) has 'just' been released on "The Essential Gigi D'Agostino" by ZYX, a bit more than 2 years ago. The same applies for CD1's "05. Stay", "12. Wellfare" (though they've released another version before), 16. Elisir (released an older version before), CD2's "Ancora Insieme" (same version), "25. Another way" etc... what's the point of having them released again and again on another Best of disc... ?
  • Linkin Park - In The End (Gigi D'Agostino Remix) on a "Best Of" album, seriously? I would be really glad to have it released, but can't see any chance of it to happen. This one and the similar titles makes the whole release suspicious, as some of you already pointed before.
  • Favola Fantastica & Magic of Love on a Best of disc... c'mon, thousands and thousands of better Gigi tracks out there, and they had to choose these? I like them, but they are very far from being Gigi's "best" hits. Okay its a matter of taste, but i can't understand "The Maranza" and "La Ninna Nanna" neither...
  • What is "Into The Bam (Ieri e Oggi mix)"? It's called "What the Bam" on Ieri e Oggi... and uhm, why would they release the Ieri e Oggi mix version in this case... ? And how can we be sure the Nuclear Sun and the others are not from Ieri e Oggi... ?

I will wait for more info, especially for the tracklist with exact lengths / samples, this is way too suspicious to preorder, even if it's announced by ZYX.

_______________________

 

One thing i can't understand: it's okay that they have the rights of Gigi's previously released tracks, but how could they get the unreleased ones, like "Love has been waiting", or "Cala la calinda"... ? For me it seems that Gigi's permission and contribution is strongly needed for such things, so he should know about this release...

 

@zeven1: You can put that much tracks on a CD easily, but they has to be less then 3 minutes long on average, or we are talking about an mp3 / data disc... :P

Well... the conclusion is that it's as mysterious as it always is with a Gigi release Laughing out loud ...raises too many questions, so let's hope for some answers soon!

It's a ZYX release, they have the copyrights to do whatever they like with Gigi tracks (more or less), taking a cover that already exists is much cheaper than making a new one and last of all: can Gigi ever have enough best of album? Wink

The tracklist is not final, I'm 95% sure of that, a final tracklist would have artist names and remix titles.
