Con grandissimo piacere abbiamo potuto sbirciare negli archivi di David Nerattini aka Little Tony Negri; musicista, produttore (fra gli altri per Frankie Hi-NRG, Colle Der Fomento, Ghemon) dj, conduttore radiofonico (Planet Rock, Rai Radio2) e critico musicale (AL, Superfly), nonché componente della prog-funk band La Batteria. Escono fuori i due brani inediti che formano questo primo volume di “Rome Hip Hop Classics”, un 7 pollici che rende finalmente disponibili su vinile due piccoli classici del hip hop romano della fine degli anni 90 prodotti dallo stesso LTN: “Armageddon 2000” dei Cor Veleno e “Fuoco Sulla Folla” del supergruppo Non Plus Ultra, ovvero Danno, Masito, Amir e Supremo73, con scratch di DJ Baro. Registrati nel 1999 per la colonna sonora del film “Semiautomatic Roma Metal Jacket” di A.J. Sykabonyi, pellicola cult del hip hop italiano degli anni 90, i brani sono rimasti inediti a livello ufficiale ed erano comparsi solo su un paio di mixtape ormai introvabili.

Aldorande is back! The French Jazz-Funk quartet returns with a strong new EP “Summer Body / Breakfast in Space” widening its musical universe to join the Favorite Recordings’ 2020 Disco Jazz-Funk series. After their first eponymous LP released in June 2019, our explorers strike again with two club-friendly compositions joining the dots between Jazz-Funk and Disco/Boogie. Recorded with great care, reflecting Favorite Recordings’ journey towards the authentic analogue sound, both tracks coming with a Charles Maurice dub versions. With this new musical space trip, Aldorande confirmed – if needed – their solid position at the heart of the French jazz scene: a great appetizer before their upcoming 2nd album to be released later this year. A-side opens with “Summer Body”, a boogie banger driven by a magnetic bassline, surrounded by lush synthesizers and catchy backing vocals arranged in the tradition of the best Brazilian songs. On the B-side comes “Breakfast in Space”, a sort of cosmic opera. The slap bass and drums set up a P-Funk foundation. On the top, Aldorande put psychedelic vocal lines making the whole journey a definitive trip into funkiness. Behind Aldorande, you will find a team of great musicians including bandleader and founder Virgile Raffaëlli on bass (Setenta, Camarão Orkestra), Florian Pellissier on keys (Iggy Pop, Guts, Setenta, Cotonete,…), Mathieu Edward on drums (Chassol, De La Soul) and Erwan Loeffel on percussion (10LEC6, Camarão Orkestra). For this new EP, always looking for more funk into their groove, they’ve been joined by French guitarist Farid Baha (Cotonete, Camarão Orkestra)
