- updated:2024-10-02
From Allez Kiki Fermentation, the Italian chamber-music-leaning post-rock/jazz group whose ensemble of double bass, Fender Rhodes and vibraphone is a thing of beauty, comes a cinematic, dreamy gem laced with gorgeous string arrangements for violin, cello and more. Limited 7-inch. The artwork and packaging have a lovely feel too. Highly recommended.
Track List
Italy's tastiest jazz-funk band is back to what they do best, sharing dreamy summer vibes with this new 2-tracker.
Cannelé is a smooth, sun-drenched tribute to this sweet product of the Bordeaux terroir, that doublebass player and former Saint-Émilion employee Fabio Bordignon knows so well. Beautiful string arrangements come to sublimate the track with a highly cinematic feel.
On the other side is the final studio version of QMQS (Quando mai, quando sempre), which is an old italian expression to qualify people that only appear rarely, and always at the same specific occasions. This uplifting disco tune first appeared in its demo and live versions on previous releases Gusto di Luce and Live at Bolle Nardini, and has finally been re-recorded in a clean and groovy dress to be pressed on this 7inch record.

Side A, "Cannelé" (sample 1), casts a spell with its elegant, cinematic mood, built from double bass, Fender Rhodes, synth, vibraphone, drums and percussion, plus beautiful string arrangements for violin, cello and other strings. Side B, "Qmqs" (sample 2), is equally lovely: a refreshing modern-disco-styled ensemble in a fusion/crossover jazz vein led by the vibraphone melody, with an excellent slowed-down, slow-motion lyrical and emotional turn in its second half.
