“La grande corsa verso Lupionòpolis”, the brand new album by Peppe Voltarelli released on 26 May 2023 (Visage Music / Pirames International / Todo Modo Publishing)

Peppe Voltarelli returns with “La grande corsa verso Lupionòpolis” (The great race to Lupionòpolis), the brand new album of unreleased tracks available on all digital platforms from 26 May 2023 and published by Visage Music. This is the first unreleased album eight years after the publication of the successful “Voltarelli canta Profazio” (Voltarelli sings Profazio) and two years after “Planetario” (Planetarium), both works awarded the Targa Tenco as best performing album, respectively, in 2016 and 2021. 

The Calabrian songwriter presents his new collection of songs recorded in New York by Marc Urselli (three Grammy Awards and collaborations with Nick Cave and Lou Reed) at Manhattan’s historic East Side Sound, and artistically produced and arranged by Los Angeles-based Italian pianist Simone Giuliani (to his credit, productions with Andrea Bocelli and the London Symphony Orchestra).

The album, which contains ten new tracks including eight songs in Calabrian dialect, one in Italian, and an instrumental waltz, was recorded last February and features musicians of international calibre such as Davin Hoff (double bass), Jake Owen (guitar), Stephane San Juan (drums), Mauro Refosco (percussions), and the participation of Eleanor Norton (cello), Dough Wieselman (saxophone and clarinet), and Amy Denio (vocals).

The record is accompanied by the music video of the song “Nun signu sulu mai” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srW9FfZbeng), shot in Brooklyn’s Red Hook neighbourhood and directed by Giacomo Triglia (Brunori Sas, Jovanotti, Lucio Dalla, Måneskin). 

After being published digitally on 26 May 2023 and having placed 2nd in the final ranking of the Tenco Prize in the best dialect album category, the new album “La grande corsa verso Lupionòpolis” has arrived in physical format. The special package, designed and printed by the publishing house Todo Modo Publishing in collaboration with Visage Music, consists of a small bag containing the CD of the album and a book with the lyrics of the songs and ten unpublished tales. In addition to the concerts (where a potato from Sila, Calabria, is given as a further gift), the special package can be purchased online (https://peppevoltarelli.bandcamp.com).

Prismatica presents Implicit Order EP exploring for the first time with ancestral sounds
playing Mexican ocarina and voices of Mexicans who know where the path goes: &quot;At that
time when the Spanish had not yet come, Anahuac represented what the Mesoamerican
area is like.
Now we are Mexicans, Guatemalans, Belizeans, Hondurans and Nicaraguans. Our territory
began in Mexico and reached Nicaragua. We all respected each other, we used poems to
combat our egos and defects. There was wisdom, the wise men, those who taught us how
we should live and love each other and do what was called brotherhood.
We lifted our hearts and our spirit with everything that existed in the world.

Dread Stone
Red Stone 
White Stone
From Zion I throne
It’s a Dread Stone 
Red Stone
White stone
Ethiopian honeycomb  

Sword in the stone by the river still water
Straight from Adam, Melchezidek Order
Refused by them in the temple you are honored
Set in the corner four elements prana
Internal and external elixir is the powder 
Red sulfur Avicenna did prosper
Alkahest 5th element we offer
Circle in the square wordless books I conjure 
On the back of the wind horse is the rider
Qidist Maryam is the Black Madonna
Making crystal into stone and black diamond
Twelve stage process the Mandjet I charter

Chorus

Glory of Zion, water in a box
Lapis Christ and the Great Solar Fox
One horn JAH and Selassie I the rock 
Man of men no illness detox 
Heavier than gold can’t burn we dreadlocks
Stone of the Wise, man and woman peacock
Excellent King Ras Tafari treetop
Shining and glorious are the diadem ethos
Key to the work element carmot
Mental process in the stone of Azoth
Sulfur and mercury and yeah salt
Nuclear energy the Midas touch 
Beginning and the end Tau and Alef
Copper antimony crystalline net
Three fold wisdom Thoth to St Germain
Realms of fire in the midst is the serpent 

Chorus 

To the strong is a burdensome matrix
Circulating the fountain of light from deep within 
Energy streaming from the hand straight to Shin
Bowl of cold water menfes qidus pouring in
Walking on the grass barefoot and just spin
24 is the path with the square breathing 
Sustaining health and all the solar impulses
Exhaling to the crown burning all hindrance

Roots Raid est né en 2011 sous l’impulsion de deux amis musiciens/producteurs Natty Bass, guitariste et bassiste & Bongo B, percussionniste. Ils fondent leur propre label Berry’s
Records et créent leur studio analogique dans lequel ils conceptualisent et réalisent plus d’une dizaine de maxis vinyles depuis 2014 avec de prestigieux MCs et invités (Shanti D, Danman, Peter Youthman, Mighty Cricket)..
Après un premier opus «From the top» sorti en 2014, et une centaine
de dates en France et à l’international (Allemagne, Autriche, Belgique, Espagne, Portugal, Norvège...),
Roots Raid revient avec son deuxième album « NUIT BLANCHE» composé de 18 morceaux sur le label ODGprod. Un double album sur lequel les toasters Cookah et Likkle Ferguson viennent poser leurs voix et leurs textes. Avec «NUIT BLANCHE», Roots Raid réinvente son style, à la croisée des genres, entre deep dub, stepper, bass music, cumbia et neo soul, tout en puisant dans les racines des débuts roots et reggae.
Un double album éclectique et assumé qui reflète les influences qui ont inspiré Roots Raid sur les 4 dernières années. Un projet enrichi par de nombreuses collaborations et featuring: Panda Dub, Dawa Hifi, Mael Cageron..
Après un single « Rooty Cowboy » co-produit avec Panda Dub en avril 2022, qui évoquait le voyage initiatique d’un jeune Cowboy devenant adulte, Nuit Blanche explore de nombreux univers, de la voie lactée (« Calling the universe », « Milky Way »…), aux temps modernes (« Modern Times ») en passant par la transidentité (« Transgender »).

ENG : 
Roots Raid was born in 2011 under the leadership of two musicians/producers friends Natty Bass, guitarist and bassist & Bongo B, percussionist.

They founded their own label Berry's Records and created their analog studio in Tours in which they conceptualized and produced more than ten maxi vinyls since 2014 with prestigious MCs and guests (Shanti D, Danman, Peter Youthman, Mighty Cricket, etc.) .

After a first opus “From the top” focused on dub, roots and rub a dub released in 2014, and around a hundred dates in France and internationally (Germany, Austria, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Norway, etc.), Roots Raid returns with his second album “NUIT BLANCHE” composed of 18 tracks on the ODGprod label. A double album on which the toasters Cookah and Likkle Ferguson add their voices and lyrics. With “NUIT BLANCHE”, Roots Raid reinvents its style, at the crossroads of genres, between deep dub, stepper, bass music, cumbia and neo soul, while drawing on the roots of early roots and reggae.

An eclectic and assertive double album which reflects the influences which have inspired Roots Raid over the last 4 years. A project enriched by numerous collaborations and featuring: Panda Dub, Dawa Hifi, Mael Cageron.

After a single “Rooty Cowboy” co-produced with Panda Dub in April 2022, which evoked the initiatory journey of a young Cowboy becoming an adult, Nuit Blanche explores numerous universes, from the Milky Way (“Calling the universe”, “Milky Way”…), to modern times (“Modern Times”) through transidentity (“Transgender”).
