Madonna's Hits Reimagined in Neon-Lit Lounges
2 Oct
Summary
- A new Madonna tribute album features unique covers by label artists.
- Johnny Jewel executive-produced the compilation on his label.
- The album reimagines iconic singles in a dark, lounge-like atmosphere.
Johnny Jewel's "Italians Do It Better" record label has released a new compilation featuring covers of Madonna's iconic songs. Executive-produced by Jewel, the album transforms familiar hits into moody, lounge-inspired tracks that reflect the label's distinctive aesthetic. This project highlights artists associated with the "Italians Do It Better" roster, including JOON and Jorja Chalmers, who deliver dark and smoky renditions of tracks like "Papa Don't Preach" and "Justify My Love."
The collection predominantly features Madonna's well-known singles, with only a few exceptions like "I'm Addicted" from the 2012 album MDNA. While some interpretations, such as In Mirrors' take on "I'm Addicted," are successful, others, like Farah's version of "Gang Bang," fall short of expectations. The album aims to showcase the label's curation style, filtering beloved pop anthems through its signature seedy, neon-lit sonic landscape.
