everybodydigs#150 Piero Umiliani – La Ragazza Fuori Strada

null

everybodydigs# is a series of posts about Jazz, Funk, Soul & R’n’b albums released from the 20s to the 90s, you can read a brief description/review and listen to a small preview (when it’s possible). everybodydigs# is like when someone tells you “hey you should listen to this album!” and nothing less, enjoy!

One of the coolest Italian soundtracks we’ve heard in a long time — a wonderful set of tunes that moves from slinky, to easy, to groovy, and beyond! The tunes start out bubbling very spare and slow — with floating piano, moog, and other nice bits — and as the record progresses, the sound gets heavier, with some nice funky elements thrown into the mix! The whole thing’s a brilliant exercise in understatement — not only one of the best soundtracks by Umiliani from the 70s, but also a perfect example of why we dig Italian soundtracks so much! Titles include “Volto Di Donna”, “La Prima Uscita”, “La Rinuncia”, “Senza Tregua”, “Nostalgia”, “The Party”, and “Maryam”.

Rappamelo’s favorite track.

Calibro 35 – Traditori Di Tutti

null

New album from Calibro 35. “There’s one thing that Italians do better than others, funky soundtracks. Quentin Tarantino knows best: soundtracks from Italian movies of the ’60s and the ’70s are the THING! “Calibro 35 does with music what Tarantino does with films”. Traditori Di Tutti sounds like a soundtrack straight from the ’70s, and this is delicious. Available now at. recordkicks.bandcamp.com. enjoy.

Irhu – Kernels

null

New from italian beatmaker Irhu. “Kernels is the first solo Irhu’s (Bluesteady Triptik) work, a project of 15 tracks each built in a different way but with a common denominator: they go to the heart, the essence of music and turn it into something new for taste and texture, as happens with the popcorn. All cooked using Mpc, Microkorg and SP303 for popping corn grains hidden in vinyls.” Yummy. Available now at. irhu.bandcamp.com.enjoy
