Tommaso Cappellato, a jazz drummer from Italy. Following his move to L.A., he released “Anti-planeting,” his first new album since 2024’s “Explorare,” which he produced with Diego Gaeta—a master keyboardist in the jazz and New Age scene—and Tony Martin, the bassist for Brainstory. This album was produced entirely by Cappellato himself, featuring drums, synthesizers, samplers, and more. It’s a blend of playful, fun electronic sounds and loopers, combined with organic grooves—pure entertainment. (Saito)

“Presenting music—or art in general—is not merely about showcasing one’s technical skills or pursuing fame. In many cases, artists feel compelled to share specific works as a means of growing and moving on to the next stage. The material may not always be easy to digest, but it is precisely within this complexity that deeper meanings and innovative ideas emerge. This is exactly what “Anti-Planetting” embodies within Cappellato’s current musical context—a yearning to break free from the ways of thinking that have long influenced society on this planet. Each track on *Anti-Planeting* has a title that contributes to the overall narrative, revealing various aspects of the artist’s personal journey. The album unfolds through these subtle emotions and intuitions, gradually revealing a complete puzzle that reflects the artist’s exploration and musical growth. “Anti-Planeting” is a complete album consisting of eight tracks born from these live experiments. The foundation of this project revolves around the use of live drums and percussion samples, which were processed through an Electro-Harmonix 45000 looper and a Kaoss Pad II. To enrich the sound palette, Tommaso integrated various analog synthesizers—including the Roland Juno-60, Roland SH-2000, Krummer T1/C, and Ciel 720 organ—with fresh solos, infectious basslines, and cosmic effects.

Releasing music - or art in general - goes beyond merely showcasing one’s performance skills or pursuing fame.

This is what “Anti-planeting” embodies within Cappellato’s current musical landscape: a yearning to break free from a mindset that has long influenced society on this planet.
