BALDO, REVIVIS — Cafe Gelato EP Disc 2

Baldo & Revivis – Cafe Gelato EP Disc 2 opens the second installment of Semi Delicious’ three-part VA series, catalogued as SEMID028B, on 12-inch vinyl. The EP arrives on 16 November 2026 and continues the label’s “broad, playful club sound” that Demi Riquísimo has curated throughout the year. With house as its core genre, this disc adds fresh cuts to the sprawling Café Gelato compilation, which gathers 17 tracks from the label’s extended family. Semi Delicious situates this record alongside two companion discs released on the same day: Disc 1 (SEMID028A) featuring Demi Riquísimo & Kepler, and Disc 3 (SEMID028C) by Bella. Earlier in the year the imprint delivered Soft Landing EP (SEMID027) and a series of releases that built the label’s reputation for colourful, dancefloor-ready house, such as R U Listening (SEMID026) and the 2025 No Given Time EP (SEMID025). Disc 2 therefore acts as the central chapter of the Café Gelato narrative, bridging the opening and closing statements of the series. Side A opens with “On That Love” by Baldo & Revivis. The track’s title hints at an affectionate groove that sits comfortably between the opener and the following cut, establishing a warm, rhythmic foundation for the side. A2, “Conga Calling” by Manuel Darquart, follows with a title that suggests a percussive, dance-floor thrust, extending the momentum set by the opening track while preparing the listener for the more expansive vibe of “Big Gulp”. The third A-side entry, “Big Gulp” from Daisybelle & Medlar, caps the side with a title evoking a generous, sweeping sweep, offering a broader, perhaps more anthemic moment that balances the tighter rhythms of the first two cuts. Side B shifts the focus. “Eyes On Me” by Etienne B opens the side with a title that implies a direct, attention-grabbing presence, likely suited for a peak-time moment where the track commands the room. “Regazzi” by Strath follows, its title conjuring a more introspective or atmospheric turn, providing contrast and a subtle change in texture after the assertive opener. The disc concludes with “Clean Up In Aisle 5” by Regularfantasy, a title that suggests a playful, perhaps quirky closure, rounding off the EP with a track that could serve as a cool-down or a cheeky transition back into the set. Baldo & Revivis have recently contributed to a number of releases beyond this EP, including the “Artlab 10 Anniversary Vol.2” on Artlab and “Chatsworth Days EP” on Running Hot Recordings, both earlier in 2026. Their involvement in Café Gelato highlights their ongoing engagement with the house scene and their ability to adapt to the label’s collaborative ethos. Revivis’ catalogue also features “Energy Ghosts” (Santo Tomas, 2025) and “Dance State EP” (Santo Tomas, 2024), underscoring a consistent output of house-centric material that aligns with the aesthetic of this compilation. Within the current underground landscape, Café Gelato’s three-disc set functions as both a snapshot of Semi Delicious’ 2026 output and a forward-looking statement. Disc 2’s blend of melodic and rhythmic tracks offers DJs a versatile toolkit: “On That Love” and “Eyes On Me” provide clear, groove-driven anchors for peak moments, while “Conga Calling”, “Regazzi” and “Clean Up In Aisle 5” supply nuanced transitions and mood shifts. Collectors will appreciate the EP’s role in the broader narrative of the label’s year-end compilation, as well as the presence of Baldo & Revivis, whose recent discography adds weight to the release. The record is pressed as a standard 12-inch vinyl, matching the format of the other Café Gelato discs. Its physical presentation follows the label’s consistent aesthetic, offering a tactile experience that complements the music’s club-oriented design.
