Poco zucchero

Faust’O's Poco zucchero arrives on Ascolto as a crystalline new wave statement, all angular synths and deadpan vocal delivery cutting through sparse arrangements. The Italian producer strips the genre to its essentials—crisp drum machines, ice-cold arpeggios, minimalist bass—leaving maximum space for each element to breathe. A lean, precise vision that recalls the continental new wave rigor of early 80s post-punk, filtered through contemporary production clarity.
