New Alessandro Bottura - "Morning Grooves" Review

Multifaceted and colorful, Morning Grooves is a continual delight on the staff, a carefree sound that comes from the best influences fusion, funk and electro.
The technique comes out perfect from the first listen but the rest Bottura after five years of piano, guitar joined, on drums and finally to the electric bass on the disc that is practically the prince, in 2007 obtained the degree in music at the DAMS Bologna.
Sounds far, summer and tropical converge in a single melody with "Out of Sight" and endless frenetic pace, a stroke on the keys of the bass, dancing on the strings and then for a moment, the notes of a piano show an immense calm that once again welcomes the ecstatic frenzy, is "Mind, Passion & Instinct" the second track, a highway along which the various sounds are chasing interweaving.
The dances are not finished yet, not until the shock of "Quetzalcoatl" has slipped in the legs making you move your pelvis and shoulders around the clock, the sounds permeate the listening nullifying the effect of size simply by scrolling over anything that is about as a colorful stream. "Deaf Kids' Disco" bounces with her hyperactive performance funk, putting well highlighted the harmony of different instruments as they rotate, but the real substance is known to pause in that Bottura introduces several songs calm down for a moment the tumultuous rage of the piece with a mirror of melodies. "Sweet Tears" is reflection, memories, known simply blown in the slow drip of rhythm, the low legal guardian of a trumpet ragged in a carousel of sounds just barely whispered.
"Stern Memories" tends his hand to jazz joking about sudden changes, a chamber piece, from taste to the end, recovering the wake of the funk that pierces the entire album, "Mayday Mayhem" flows directly from the seventies, low blows known as boils, cut the battery is alternate with furious attacks of the instruments, perhaps this is the track that encloses most of all the immense versatility and versatility of the artist, sin will end too soon.
"Black Lady", a cocktail of funk and jazz very successful, especially the choice of sounds simple, minimal parts makes even more appreciable, the disc is perfect for a relaxing evening in the company of friends, but in the long term appears in some passages "static", linked to a well-defined line. However Bottura can enter every trace elements in surprising and totally subversive shares than the main structure, such as time of Arab "Black Lady".
"Tropical Night" starts winding up and promises to notice what the title means, get lost on this final track is almost like dreaming, and the closure is good, the beautiful and very hard to discover, we hope to see Bottura live soon. Alessio Scicolone- Extra Music Magazine

MICHAEL BEHM

The Remaining Go

Michael Behm is a multi-talented singer/songwriter with a rapidly expanding international reputation as an artist to watch. He is also a concerned citizen of Planet Earth. These two roles intersect in compelling fashion on his new track, “The Remaining Go.”

The song was written for Earth Day, and Behm is donating all the proceeds from sales of the track to the Western Canada Wilderness Committee (WCWC) for their work in educating people on the steps we can take to make living on earth sustainable. The song has also been donated to the WCWC for use in their publicity campaigns. "I created the song as a reminder for us to be a little easier on the planet,” explains Behm. “I recognised the need for all of us to honour the agreement we have with nature and to walk with a little softer footprint.”

The catalyst for The Remaining Go was Behm’s witnessing of environmental destruction in his own British Columbia backyard. He lives close to Qualicum and Cathedral Grove, a beautiful old growth forest now under serious threat from logging. Heli-logging close to protected areas of forest creates serious damage to the entire forest, says Behm. “When you cut down the primary trees around an old growth forest, the wind affects the remaining trees and they fall as well, hence the title ‘The Remaining Go.’”

The song’s lyrics bring the situation to vivid life: “1,000 summers to make just one…when the cold winds blow, the remaining go.” The message is delivered in the form of a strongly melodic and accessible pop-rock song. “I wanted something singable so the audience could sing along if they wanted to. I was looking for something with a pop sensibility and a pleading kind of performance to it,” says Behm.

This mandate is fulfilled in strikingly effective fashion on “The Remaining Go.” The song features the high-end production that has become a Michael Behm trademark, while his vocal and instrumental work is of an equally high calibre. This creative talent was vividly showcased on his 2008 album Saving America, which earned notable airplay and media attention in the U.S., while his recent single “If I Could Learn To Fly” topped online charts in Australia (mp3.au.com) and Canada (Reverb Nation). His carefully-crafted compositions are also in increasing demand for film and television, and Behm recently completed a track for a new Disney prodution.

An impressive new addition to Behm’s body of work, ”The Remaining Go” reflects a wider purpose. ”I’m not preachy, but there’s a point when mainstream people like myself feel motivated to do something about what is going on.”
