The first one is dedicated to Eric Dolphy, surely one of the most eclectic and innovative artist in the world of jazz, so Dolphyn Surround is a tribute to his music re-arranged by many italian beatmakers which gave their imprint to Eric Dolphy’s music.” Download
Next Saturday (March 3rd 2011) we'll be hosting a gig with the mighty MC/DJ/Producer DreLove!! He can be considered the american backbone in italian hip hop, the link between Italy and New York...as he contributed, especially as an mc, to many tracks and albums that would later become some of the most appreciated joints in italian hip hop history. Check out the stuff he did with 'Radical Stuff', 'Neffa e i 107 elementi', 'Almamegretta', 'Saweshi'.... Lately he's been mostly active with his funk band 'DreLove & The White Niggaz' and is about to deliver his solo album produced along with drummer/beatmaker DRUMZ... DreLove's work has been inspirational for many artists out here in Italy throughout the years, and to us he's a friend and mentor, so you know we're bound to get down!! March, Saturday 5th....if you're in the area you might wanna bring your dancing shoes!!! FREE ENTRY
