Jukka Eskola - Orquesta Bossa - Album Preview

The Guardian once commented that "Empirical have become fascinating and fearless" and their fourth album Tabula Rasa is evidence that this is still very much the case.  Never a band to shy away from taking risks, Tabula Rasa is a double album and marks yet another new direction from the band once dubbed by the Daily Telegraph as "the coolest of Britain's young jazz bands".

At once sweet and sentimental, haunting and melancholic, ‘Tema di Susie’ stands out from the other tracks in the film, which are more tense and frantic. Like the rest of the score, however, it exemplifies the way in which, during the ‘70s, Italian film composers created their own version of the sound of American blaxploitation cinema, with its groovy blend of funk, jazz, and soul. It is no coincidence that the film’s director, B-movie specialist Alfonso Brescia, specifically requested music in the style of Shaft, the iconic film that defined that sound in 1971.

"Though seemingly simple, ‘Tema di Susie’ is a perfect example of Alessandroni’s style – in particular his unique ability to effortlessly blend groove and melody, funk and feeling, into one musical piece. That’s why we thought it deserved a special, double installment of our RELOVED series - gor this chapter of the series, Four Flies enlisted Neapolitan duo Fratelli Malibu, consisting of drummer Andrea De Fazio and bassist Paolo Petrella, versatile musicians who’ve been active in the Naples music scene for nearly two decades; and French producer Mounika, with his unique style characterized by mellow and soothing vibes.

Today we share with you Fratelli Malibu – Tema Di Susie Reloved (Banda Maje Vocal Retouch) - The Neapolitan duo have taken Alessandroni's melodic theme and woven it into a mesmerizing tapestry of rhythmic beats, world percussion and ethereal atmospheres. Drawing inspiration from funk/Afrobeat, synth-pop and Italo-disco, they've conjured a psychedelic-tinged, afro-cosmic groove that's bound to transport you to another dimension.

As the music unfolds, you'll feel like you've stepped into a vibrant, fantasy world. The breaks, outro, and intro are woven with a psychedelic thread that leaves you yearning to return once the final note fades away. And that's not all – they've injected an irresistible pop sensibility into the track with the use of drum machines and synths. The result? A rework that not only ampli#es the dreaminess of the original but also seamlessly marries the past with the future.

Four Flies Records say about the track: "We love the track so much that we decided to double the fun with a vocal retouch version, courtesy of the Italian funk/soul collective Banda Maje. Their vocalists, Chiara Della Monica and Cristina Cafiero, elegantly infuse cinematic and Balearic vibes into the mix, paying a wonderful homage to Fratelli Malibu’s exquisite arrangement".

Alessandro Alessandroni - Afro Discoteca (STW Premiere)

My annual Spring mix has become my most challenging and rewarding project. All year round I accumulate notes, lists and piles of records that I think have that little something magical needed for this session.

This is a deeply personal and spiritual mix but it isn't limited to a genre. Music that makes me float, meditate, introspect. Music that makes me hopeful. 

Dedicated to the sun. 

Dedicated to my mom. 

Dedicated to you.

swing low

 A relaxed effort in the vein of the classic ”cooking session” tradition of modern jazz.

That is, the band came in, took hold of the new tunes penned by Lassy and his trusty drummer/producer Teppo ”Teddy Rok” Mäkynen, and fired on all cylinders.

The result? Some of the most swinging no-nonsense in your face and under your feet jazz you’ll likely to hear this year or during most of the others.

No gimmicks needed here, this jazz is cooking.
