Releases from artist / Veröffentlichungen von : Nu Guinea

the neapolitan berlin based duo nu guinea inaugurates their new in-house label ng records with a sparkling mélange of jazz-funk and obscure disco. with its own special italian flavour, the reinterpretation of chrisma s late 70s ode to love finds its complement in a refreshing arcane dancefloor expedition. previously pressed as a private wedding present, -amore- is now being officially released as a limited edition of 350 copies.

repress - afrobeat makers vol. 3 >> nu guinea comes back with a joint venture between comet records and early sounds recordings. by re-working the original magic drum patterns from the afrobeat master tony allen, they created a compilation of tracks which is charged by a voluminous electronic jazz-funk imprint.

this time early sounds delivers some papuan flavoured soulful deep house jams.

almost 2 years after the success of the album the tony allen experiments and a few months after the release of the 7inch amore, nu guinea return to the scene with a new lp published by their newborn label ng records. after touring the world looking for sounds suitable for their vibrations, nu guinea decided to go back to square one, napoli, where massimo di lena and lucio aquilina were born and raised. they watched their city from a distance reconstructing its energy from their studio in berlin, calibrating the synths on the meridian of vesuvius, the volcano that has always protected and threatened napoli. nuova napoli is the result of a long musical research that has become a historical investigation on the sound that shaped napoli during the 70s and 80s, starting from the contamination of genres (disco, jazz-funk, african rhythms) which ended up in nu guineas dna. in this album the synthesizers fill the spaces between the past and the future, tightening in a single body acoustic instruments, electronics and voices in neapolitan dialect
