new LP REISSUE
Incredible work from Nicola Conte -- Schema records maestro making his Blue Note debut with this set -- and giving the label one of their best new albums of the 21st Century! The record's quite different than Nicola's programmed dancefloor work for Schema -- and is much more of an organic jazz-based session -- with instrumentation by a wide arrangement of hip European jazzers (including Till Bronner and Rosario Giuliani!), plus sweet vocals from a variety of different singers!
The groove is still very much in the Conte/Schema spirit -- often in a loping modal approach to jazz, with a strong inspiration from the best European scenes of the late 60s and early 70s. The sound is wonderful -- with players from the larger lineup playing in differing groups from track to track -- showcasing instrumentation that includes vibes, flute, trombone, tenor, alto, and even a bit of guitar from Nicola himself.
Vocalists include Bembe Segue, Lucia Minetti, Cristina Zavalloni, and Till Bronner -- and
titles include "Sea & Sand", "Nefertiti", "Wanin Moon", "A Time For Spring", "Kind Of Sunshine", "Aphrodite's Dream", "The Dharma Bums", "All Gone", "Le Depart", and "Several Shades Of Dawn".
Imagine the best work of Schema or Compost done in an all-organic, all-natural mode -- and you've got the beautiful sound of this set! (Very unique package, too -- like getting 2 classic Blue Note albums together at once!)
