\u201cBody & Soul\u201d marks Stefano Tirone aka S-Tone Inc.\u2019s return, three years after \u201cOnda\u201d, a work dense of soul \/ disco \/ funk hints from the late \u201870s, a historical period that Stefano fully experienced and that inevitably left deep traces in his way of creating music. This sound has also inspired the two unreleased tracks included in the \u201cTry My Love \/ Odoya\u201d 45rpm, released in 2019, and is developed even further in this new full-length.<\/p>\n
As usual \u201cBody & Soul\u201d welcomes the presence of several guest artists, starting from Stefano\u2019s long-time friend and collaborator Toco, here singing in four songs; he is also accompanied by a vocal trio that carries the listener into a world where Brazilian melodies blend with typical \u201870s disco rhythms. Laura Fedele is in the game again too: in \u201cIn the Name of Love\u201d she elegantly dresses a jazz-funk piece characterized by Carlo Nicita\u2019s flute, reminiscent of the famous Mizell Brothers. Laura also participates in the title track, a true manifesto of the album characterized by a funky bass line and by the space-disco atmosphere of the voices and the Wurlitzer.<\/p>\n
Among the new collaborations we have Afra Kane, a Nigerian singer who has lived in Italy, England and Switzerland, who gives a peculiar black shade to the album songs with her splendid voice, and Donatinho, son of the legendary Jo\u00e3o Donato, playing Rhodes and Moog and gracing Stefano\u2019s music with his refined touch.<\/p>\n
\u201cMidnight Sun\u201d, a cinematic-flavoured instrumental track that pays homage to The Maestro Ennio Morricone, who passed away in July 2020, closes a beautiful record captivating and precious in every note.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
