The Berlin Session
Tears are in the eyes of Xabiib Sharaabi, nicknamed the Somali King of Pop when he entered the stage of Berlin’s HKW. It is a mix of nostalghia, pain and joy. Like many Somalis he had been deprived overnight of both glamour and friends, the war in his homeland had sent him into exile. The glamorous discos and beachfront stages Mogadishu had once been famous for, had disappeared as the city was bombed to the ground. The King of Somali pop found himself stranded in Sweden, others like the members …

Cabaret per Nulla
This album comes from the love for Music. Contemporary music, but also Songs. From the love for History and People. From the observation of a stage before and after a concert. And from Friendship and Collaboration.Erik Satie and John Cage were two musicians of great influence and supreme coherence. In their rigorous path they choose the road to astonishment. On the road to their artistic ideal they met the “music”, when others only loosely saw it. Satie and Cage are, now historically, two compos…
Moltitudine in Labirinto
Moltitudine in labirinto is a poetic journey drawn with sound. An unveiled meeting. The minimal sequences, the recognizable character of Gigi Masin’s music, here are fused with the electronic “vision” of Giuseppe Caprioli, more harsch, materic. The result is a fascinating hybrid, a new modern music, leaden and grieved, lost voice in the maze of memories. This CD, at the same time the new work of Masin and the “first time” for Caprioli, stands as a high expression in the lineage of evolution of t…

Screaming calmly, Dean Brown's Little Skull has shrunk, even more, until his head is almost just sore meat - t…
