Take a trawl through Mushrooms Projects’ ample back catalogue, and you’ll immediately be struck by their constant artistic progression. Throughout their career, Giorgio Giri and Marco Lentano have refused to stand still, with each successive release offering a subtle signs of musical evolution.

They’re at it again on Rivea Corymbosa, a sophomore set that’s markedly different – albeit similarly minded – to their 2013 debut album, Undergrass. That album bristled with psychedelic intent, offering fuzzy, thickset fusions of dub-disco grooves, gritty funk-rock guitar licks and acid-fried musical flourishes. It was in marked contrast to their early 12” singles, which offered a nu-disco-era take on the pioneering Cosmic Disco sound developed in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s by fellow Italians Daniele Baldelli and Beppe Loda.

With Rivea Corymbosa, the Parma-based production duo has moved on once more. For starters, it’s far breezier and more positive in feel than many of their previous releases. The claustrophobic atmosphere and drowsy textures, so noticeable on Undergrass, have been replaced by the kind of lazy, sun-kissed vibe that evokes thoughts of Adriatic sunsets and afternoons spent by the pool on the Italian Riviera.

Even more startling is the duo’s expanded musical repertoire. The album features a much wider array of elements, from the title track’s darting Rhodes keys, vintage synth solos and wah-wah guitar flashes, to the humid pedal steel lines of “Baiano”, and the husky spoken vocals and spooky flute solos of the sparse, bongo-laden “Pulsacao”. They’re not afraid to utilize their own field recordings, either, as the children’s chatter underpinning recent single “Dirty Bolas” perfectly proves.

Throughout, the percussion feels loose and organic, the guitars casual but funky, the keys sumptuous and sensual, and the bass lines warm, rich and intoxicating. It’s the sound of two confident musicians, comfortable in their art, making music to soothe minds and gently tease punters towards the dancefloor.

Life's Hard And Then You Die

Space, He Called From The Kitchen . . .

So. Here is the new love project Acid Hamam - It all started out as a live-performance where i mixed scandinavian and oriental folk music with slow, deep tech grooves that i ran through some patches in my modular system to spice things up. The live performance and response from the crowd was amzing! I´ll never forget that night!
The idea behind this EP ”Soul Sirocco” is basically about me growing up and excisting in this country. In this times. People always ask me where i come from. Sweden is never a good enough answer - because my hair is black. My eyes are brown. It happens wherever i go. Every country i travel to. With almost every new people i meet. My whole life. people are trying to figure me out on the basis of racial prenotion.
My lack of this kind of identity has led me to feel as a part of everything and everyone. Since i can´t relate to a single national identity, i will relate to every one! And i will make music and i will try to make that music tell a story.
So when i blend old Scandinavian folk music with arabic shanting, and i see people dancing away in the haze of the dancefloor, it´s pure magic. In these moments everything becomes one. Just as we are supposed to.
This unity is what Acid Hamam is about! This is the most honest record i ever made. Stay put for some upcoming live performances during 2016.
