Dancefloor stompers

With the main intent to pay homage to the soul-jazz labels like Blue Note, Verve, Stax / Volt and the Mod style, Dancefloor Stompers finally arrive at their first studio album after reaching propensity for “cinematic” taste through the work for different performances, reading-concert and commissions for short films.

LIBRERIE MUSICALI starts with the intent to merge these different experiences, trying to put together passion for black music (soul-jazz, rhythm’n’blues, Hammond sound and funk) and fascination for the great music for cinema, television and radio, in particular produced in Italy between Sixties and Seventies.

A special set that tries to blend the groove of Booker T. & The MG’s, The Meters, JB’s, Horace Silver and Jimmy Smith with a beat & orchestral sound typical of Marc 4, Piero Umiliani, Ennio Morricone, Stelvio Cipriani, Armando Trovajoli, Franco Micalizzi, Gian Piero Reverberi. Without forgetting the overseas examples of Lalo Schifrin or Jerry Goldsmith and the most modern ones like Corduroy, BBNG, Adrian Younge. The result is a riot of organ riffs, guitar phrasing, explosive horn section and ultra-syncopated rhythm section.

Like the music for a TV series that has not yet been written…100% BLACK & CINEMATIC GROOVE!
