Gerardo strikes back with 5-tracks of his distinctive latin jazz dance!

One year after the release of his fifth studio album Movement, Gerardo Frisina comes back with a new EP: 5 tracks that outline his current sound, an original blend of latin and jazz influences with a marked club attitude. These five tracks represents different moods and areas of sound exploration. 
The title track for instance, Olympia, delves into Gerardo’s passion for Brazilian music: a slow joint (only 115bpm!) where the berimbau plays an important role. Or Talking Sticks, a track that in some way follows the afrofunk mood already explored in his latest album. Gerardo eschews ordinary choices and opted for inserting often overlooked or out of fashion instruments in his tracks: the Hammond organ, the baritone sax, for instance.
East Breeze reminds one of the latest Gerardo’s EP (do you remember Orient, co-produced with DJ Skizo?) and brings an exotic flavour to Gerardo’s trademark sound. There’s also a cover, an homage to one of Gerardo’s favourite tracks, Dizzy Gillespie’s Tin Tin Deo: a jazz classic influenced by afrocuban music of which Gerardo desired for long time to give his interpretation. The closing track is The Obsession – a track led by a repetitive bass, a pure example of Gerardo’s sound: a track that may sound house at first, but that the experienced listener will recognise as a far more complex blend of styles and influences. The consistency of the sound of this EP is guaranteed by the presence of Gerardo’s musicians, the ones that participated on his latest full length.

It is with great pleasure that we announce the release of "Welcome To My World - Part Two" by Joyce Elaine Yuille.

Originally made available as a digital download on Bandcamp last April, the album was also released physically as a CD and LP. The LP version though, did not include all the 13 tracks.

They say to succeed in music you should specialise.  These tunes are the fruits of my disparate forays into writing music, and they are anything but specialised...unless you count being true to a creative instinct. 

You will find the whimsical and the dark, experimental edits of (very) old tunes and remixes of new ones, easy listening and ambient noise. 

If you like what you hear, you can follow me, leave comments, or even buy tunes with the Bandcamp link.
There are some free downloads available too.
