Honouring the timeless rhythms of Italian percussion masters, alongside a \u003cstrong\u003ebrand-new exclusive composition\u003c\/strong\u003e by Gabriele, ‘Ritmo Italiano’ shines a light on the universal, primal language of the drum. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA connection sparked from an early age; percussion has always deeply resonated with Gabriele. It led to years of studying percussion traditions across \u003cstrong\u003eCuba, Puerto Rico, and Brazil\u003c\/strong\u003e, crafting his own songwriting skills in the process. An acclaimed producer and compiler, his releases on \u003cstrong\u003eYoruba Records, BBE and Soundway Records\u003c\/strong\u003e have garnered global support. Yet a growing need to rediscover the essence of his country’s cultural heritage laid the foundations for this new compilation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Gabriele’s own words, “Italy has always been a\u003cstrong\u003e crossroads of civilizations\u003c\/strong\u003e, with influences from the Mediterranean, North Africa, the Middle East, and Europe converging over centuries. Ports like Naples, Genoa, and Venice played a crucial role as gateways for musical exchange, a melting pot of sounds and cultures brought by sailors, merchants and travellers. These influences blended with Italy’s own folk and religious traditions, creating Italy’s \u003cstrong\u003eunique and emotionally resonant rhythms\u003c\/strong\u003e.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross the 12 absorbing tracks, there’s\u003cstrong\u003e jazz\u003c\/strong\u003e influences, Italian\u003cstrong\u003e library\u003c\/strong\u003e music aesthetics and experimental beats mixing with \u003cstrong\u003eAfro-Cuban and Mediterranean\u003c\/strong\u003e rhythms. It’s a broad selection anchored by the drums. The synth-heavy, ‘80s jazz funk flavours of\u003cstrong\u003e Gegè Munari's\u003c\/strong\u003e ‘Police Man’, sit side-by-side with the samba-infused ‘Napulitano D' 'O Brasil’ by \u003cstrong\u003eDon Marino Barreto Jr.\u003c\/strong\u003e Tribal, earthly energy radiates from \u003cstrong\u003eNaco’s\u003c\/strong\u003e ‘Volando Con Milton’, with \u003cstrong\u003eTullio De Piscopo \u003c\/strong\u003eserving up cosmic disco brilliance, and blistering jazz funk mastery coming courtesy of \u003cstrong\u003eAgostino Marangolo\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Recorded live in one take, it captures a raw, unfiltered vibe. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Each track tells a story, connecting the past with the present, and highlighting the deep-rooted traditions that shape Italy’s rhythms.
