Berlino New York Città del Messico

Controrecords - New Model Label

Great singer-songwriter from Torino, Stefano Amen finally presents his new album.

Intimate, acoustic, country-blues and sweet, "Berlino New York Città del Messico" conferm his talented songwriting. All these songs reminds artists like Johnny Cash, Gianmaria Testa, and many more...sometime it reminds me some acoustic songs by dEUS. Little sweet stories, little arithmetics between our lifes, soft little moments written by Stefano. The song that titled the album is really great!! Here for you all the album...Thanks Stefano

New album 19 April - Radicanto

Radicanto

Bellavia

Il Millennio

7Th Album for this band from Puglia. he band's new CD offers a fascinating journey through the music, dissolving over time and space of the musical culture of the Mediterranean sea, refined style, elegant arrangements. For me is one of the best album of the year, with great songs like "ragazza". For this record they worked with Raiz and Teresa De Sio, First video is one of the new songs

and after an old and traitional song, it was performed mainly during the carding of wool or during the "celebration " of the harvest, usually there was questions and answers between two singers.

New album 15 April - Nuju

Nuju
Atto secondo

MKrecords

Nuju in Calabria's dialect means Nessuno (Nobody). "Atto secondo" is the second and great album for this band, they create an incredible urban-folk that reminds artists like Pogues, Mano Negr and Capossela. They worked with Franco Moneti (Modena City Ramblers), Gennaro De Rosa and many more. First single "disegnerò" is Fantastic!!, here is the video (dir. Giacomo Triglia) and part of the lyrics.."Starting as gypsies looking for a party one night, drawing the unthinkable, something magical and wonderful, disappointed by the company in decline as a flower without water and deluded by vanity picture. Always in motion, balancing on the usualuncertainties, lulled by time and by women, mothers and lovers, travelers inevitableflaming roads yet to travel.."

New album 9 April - Yo Yo Mundi

Yo Yo Mundi

Munfrà

Felmay

Maybe I'm late but it's time for Yo Yo Mundi. 10th Album for this great band. "Munfrà" in Piemonte's dialect means Monferrato and it's a part of this Region. They worked for 4 years and dedicated this album to this part of Italy where they're born and live. Songs that talk about old real stories, old songs, in italian in arabic and six in Monferrato's dialect. A big project with many guests like Sergio Berardo (Lou Dalfin), Steve Wickham, Eugenio Finardi, Banda Osiris and many more.. The drawings of Sstèila are by Ivano A. Antonazzo. Paolo Conte wrote that these songs are "wild music".
