  • Nari & Milani "Destination Calabria" is a song by Italian music producer Alex Gaudino with vocals by Crystal Waters. It is the first single released from his debut album My Destination. The track is a mashup, taking the instrumental from Rune RK's "Calabria" and the vocals from Gaudino's and Waters' "Destination Unknown", both originally released in 2003. It was produced with the help of Maurizio Nari and Ronnie Milani (Nari & Milani), matching the saxophone riff from "Calabria" to Waters' voice.

In 2006, "Destination Calabria" was released in Italy as a 12-inch single by Rise Records. In the United Kingdom, a CD and 12-inch single were issued on 19 March 2007 by Data Records. The song was also successful in several other countries, including Australia, Belgium, France, Ireland, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

Music video

The music video is directed by Eran "Rani" Creevy, produced by Ben Pugh for Ministry of Sound and choreographed by David Leighton. It features eight female dancers (Natasha Payne, Jessica Grist, Emma Wharton, and others) in sexualized green marching band costumes, playing various instruments in a seductive manner, and dancing inside an infinity cove. In some scenes, seemingly hundreds of the dancers are seen at once, but these are simply the original eight replicated many times using digital imagery.

Waters herself does not appear in the video, but members of the marching band lip sync her lyrics at various points.
