Rusty Brass - Incisioni barbariche (self-produced)

https://open.spotify.com/intl-it/album/43AWAyJfoQGbokM3TnbZxL?si=VccQLjROR4adntdPSKOwgA

You only need to listen to Longoparty, the track that opens this beautiful debut album, which is essentially a sort of programmatic manifesto to apply to the “barbaric incisions” to put Rusty Brass among your favorites in Spotify playlists or any other digital store. Longoparty starts quietly. It’s like the calm before the storm... A brief intro with the trumpet and then the band kicks in with a straightforward rhythm. The big band (3 trumpets, 2 trombones, sousaphone and electric bass, drums and percussion) sways at a thousand miles per hour between jazz and ska, with samples of screaming voices that overflow the longoparty into funk. Then follows a passage from a terrific big band and a sudden return to the loop and the frenzied rhythm of the beginning. Had enough? No, because Rusty Brass launch into a bridge with phrasing between the various brass instruments where solos intersect. A mosaic of perfect solos supported by rhythms that, in the meantime, though still frantic, have changed into something that seems like a mix between samba and Latin beats. There. This is just the beginning. The other tracks of this beautiful debut, although perhaps following different rhythmic coordinates (offbeat) or various inserts (the rap of Iron Rage) are all like this. A chaotic and perfect party to go crazy for.
