Verdo drops his long-awaited full-length album Gratis Club on Hell Yeah Recordings, a label that has carved out a fierce reputation over the years for championing eccentric electronic outliers from the Italian underground, blending Italo disco fire with hi-NRG drive and trance-fueled abandon. As a veteran Adriatic DJ and producer, Verdo treats fans to rarities like this 11-track masterpiece, his first proper album and a direct tribute to the legendary Gratis Club in Senigallia that he once helmed. This isn’t just music; it’s a pulsating revival of the club’s sweaty nights, where Verdo’s piano-driven melodies collide with relentless dancefloor momentum across tracks like Let In The Light, Boulevardier, Eyes Melody, Ballad, Gratis Club, Our Love Come Back, Lest We Forget, and Little Blue (101 Edit), plus bonus remixes from Fango, Lauer Trance I Caries, and Pedro Bertho that amp up the raw underground edge.
From the jump, Verdo channels the club’s electric spirit, delivering cuts that throb with the kind of unfiltered propulsion that pulls DJs deep into the mix and keeps crowds locked in for hours. Hell Yeah Recordings has long been the go-to home for artists like Verdo, who first lit up their roster after standout work on Danny Was A Drag King and his own 2020 Symmetry EP—proving once again why he’s Italy’s sly maestro of melody and groove. Gratis Club bursts with that authentic house and disco pulse, honed from years behind the decks, where every track feels like a memory of packed rooms heaving under strobe lights. Opener Let In The Light kicks things off with Italo disco thrust that demands immediate spins, while Boulevardier spirals into radiant introspection laced with rugged synth lines marching forward. Eyes Melody climbs higher with acrobatic rhythms, Ballad dips into late-night reflection via pensive layers, and the title track Gratis Club stomps boldly, capturing the venue’s unapologetic euphoria.
Our Love Come Back aches with the club’s bittersweet closure, Lest We Forget pumps like peak-hour sweat, and Little Blue eases into a dreamy comedown. The bonus remixes elevate it further: Fango reworks Let In The Light into deeper territory, Lauer Trance I Caries twists Ballad into fresh urgency, and Pedro Bertho reshapes Boulevardier for peak-time destruction. For house and techno heads craving that underground authenticity, Verdo’s album hits like a time machine to forgotten Adriatic nights—pure, propulsive gold from a loyal Hell Yeah soldier. DJs, this one’s for your crates; fans, it’s the rare full statement from a legend who rarely speaks. Dropping February 12, 2026, Gratis Club reignites the fire.
