DISSOI LOGOI
Contamination is the clue to this band's work: jazz from '60s and '70s, funky, rock and minimal music are the urban background on which finds its place ethnic inspiration from the mediterranean tradition, as well as from african and oriental music. The title of their first CD, From West to East, reveals the nomadic spirit of Dissoi Logoi's music, that can be well condidered as an attempt to combine influences from the North and the South of the globe.

Contaminazione e' il termine piu' adatto ad indicare l'ambito musicale di questo gruppo: jazz degli anni '60 e '70, funky, rock e mininal music rappresentano il background urbano su cui trovano posto le suggestioni etniche della tradizione mediterranea, africana ed orientale. Questo CD di esordio puņ essere considerato un riuscito tentativo di combinare influenze del Nord e del Sud del mondo. (SOLD OUT)
