The 12 tracks steal "clients" from the "rewarded" firm of Mr.Morr and Mrs.Warp,where the logic orders and leads complex rythmic structures, and emotional warm. A lot of electronic,guitars and voices.Melodies conceptually based on intelligent and communicative interpretation of the couple "repetition-variation", and able then not to fall into the misunderstanding of the evergreen confortable seriality,comes out of the crossing of timbres and acoustic levels. The songs of A taste of are sometimes expanded and rarefied, but indeed songs that, thanks to small,permanent, resounding inventions, make their way in the memory already at a first hearing, without applying to the insignificant and misterious cathegory of "catchy". It is a new way of Pop follwing a style at the same time heterogeneous and recognizable, alterning,by surprise,sung segments and instrumental spaces,synthetic sounds and seductive whisperings, stressings of dance and sound minimalism, with a modern and defenetly anti-nostalgic look towards a certain kind of british atmospheres of the 80s. In "Figure" ( a potentially warm and touching single ),the collaboration with the very young roman singer Bianca Di Cesare evokes Portishead’s ghost and recalls the most inspired Air; on the other side, tracks like "Tester" and "Toolbox" betrays a more electro soul and sometimes, hybrid rhytmics and even exothic suggestions, become protagonist. Mir, the small satelite launched from Rome groundbase, is already in orbit and it’s sending out a strong signal: weather forecast overcoming borders of the obvious. A taste of is a dispatch for those who want to know in advance the future scenery of electronic and Pop: you better look for the right frequencies. |
