Sales Information:

Balearic. Disco. Italo. House. These are the styles that forged Filippo Colonna Romano, aka Modula. The diverse musician has always drawn on a rich musical seam for inspiration. His latest album, Sounds from Montenuovo, calls upon a spread of sounds and styles. From the birdsong of the title piece, the listener finds themselves in the stripped electro-wave of "Party Crime" and "Night Warrior" with Pamina Chauveau offering impassioned vocals. The colder edges of emotions are exposed in the unsheathed funk of "The Anger" before the summer brightness and overarching warmth of "Looking At The Horizon". Modula island hops from genre to genre, dipping into one sound before diving deep into another style to resurface with audio pearls. Tribal tones and melodic bursts come together in the exotic "Malicumbà", a track which anticipates the pure synthesizer joy of the instrumental version of "Looking At The Horizon". A vivid collection of imaginings from Romano's studio, sounds that arrive via the clear waters of the Caribbean and the cinematic echoes of the 1980s. A voyage from beginning to end.[info sheet from distr.]
