Antonella Ruggiero and Roberto Colombo have made an album of experimental music. A trip into music and combinations of Electronic and Classical Music. The DVD contains the video "Attesa" with images of urban settings and the music of Ruggiero and Colombo. Antonella Ruggiero is a Italian singer and songwriter born 15 November 1952 in Genova. She is one of the founders of Matia Bazar, that left in 1989 for start solo career. Roberto Colombo started his career with two phenomenal experimental prog albums, both of them hybrids of Italian prog and fusion styles, with a liberal dose of Mothers/Zappa influence, riddled with invention. After that his career was all-change, first as a sought after electronics specialist (including work with PFM), and then as a prolific producer and session musician.
Since (at least) the Greeks, humorists, moralists and satirists have been fascinated by the artistic game of inversion, of “the world turned upside down”, which is how one might translate the title of this largely forgotten opera by Salieri. It here gets its first ever recording. Present an image of society turned on its head and you enable your audience/reader/viewer to see the actual way of things in a whole new light. Your aims may be to expose the follies and errors of the actual, to propose a better way of doing things, or simply to get some laughs from the resulting improbabilities and surprises - or, of course, a mixture of all these motives and more.
My Cat Is A Zen Master album by Chuck Colombo was released April 03, 2012. My Cat Is A Zen Master CD music contains a single disc with 10 songs.
Joe Colombo is a Swiss/Italian blues guitarist recognized as a virtuoso of the slide guitar.
The new album “StratoSlider” is an intense, energetic instrumental contemporary blues album where the slide guitar sings, talks and tells stories with unquestionable authenticity. The album is made up of eight original tracks plus an arrangement of the traditional “St. James Infirmary “. The track list includes stylistic references that pay tribute to the great Texas guitarist Johnny Winter to whom the song “Johnny D.” is explicitly dedicated and songs that are about today’s delta-blues, Tex-Mex rhythms and Afro-Caribbean grooves. This is an entirely instrumental album that sums up twenty years of an artistic career during which Joe Colombo has been constantly looking for new horizons beyond the bounds and stereotypes of the genre. The blues belongs to him.
