Who is I.F.M. ?I.F.M. is Marcello Napoletano & Francesco Schito Aka Fran - Mela . The duo came together in 2007 after the loss of their close friend , Dj Ilario Corsano .Marcello Napoletano took the house fraternity by storm with his excellent " A Prescription Of Love Ep " released early 2009 on Jamal Moss's Mathematics imprint outta Chicago .With this partnership , Marcello and Francesco deliver a stunning and well crafted ep . Already receiving props from dj’s such as levon Vincent , Lerosa , Ksoul , Dj Qu , Jus Ed , Dj Deep , Jamal Moss , Keith Worthy , Tama Sumo + Many More . Their sound references all the legendary producers of deep house from New Jersey to Chicago but proudly stands alone with an innately personal touch in the perfected arrangements and cheery picked samples. With a head nod to Prescription label's Chez Damier, Ron Trent or Kerri Chandler but it's easy to hear traces of Lil Louis, Armando, Cajual or many others. With the track opener , “ Miles” , I.F.M. truly come into their own , with a very fresh an unique sound palette whilst still referencing the rich tapestry of Chicago house . “ 11 September” sees them in reflective mode , paying homage and respect to those who were personally affected by the 11 september events of 2001 , as they were .The 2nd side of the ep sees the guys stepping up the pressure on the excellent “Tom” . Melding so many influences into one with such refinement .The closing track on the ep – “ Raw Vibes” does exactly what it says on the tin . A raw work out with it’s avant-house arrangements guaranteed to jack your body proper !!!!! “Back in the days “ brings back a proper spring into house . Highly recommended !!!!
