PIN IV: Francesco Assenza

Hello PanoPeople!!


After Roberto Angelini, My Awesome Mixtape and FrankSentUs, it's time to tell you about the last attraction of the first night of PIN IV: 
Francesco Assenza!!


He comes from Roma, and he's somehow linked to Roberto and FrankSentUs' Sytem Error, having shared the stage of Il Locale with them, at the time as the singer of a rock band.
Years have passed, and Francesco has been living for a while in Berlin, and has become a successful dj.


He's part of a really interesting label, Sleep is Commercial, which has recently released two compilations on free download on the web.
If you want to check them out, here you have the link to download:
Morning Tools Vol. 1
Morning Tools Vol. 2

Vol. 1 includes a track by Francesco Assenza.

Tomorrow we'll post here a direct link to listen to a set by Francesco.

Get ready to dance  his music until the end of the first Panoplie Italian Night IV!!

Cya there

PIN IV: My Awesome Mixtape

Hello PanoPeople!!

After Roberto Angelini, it's the time for another comeback to the stage of d:qliq: My Awesome Mixtape!!

And, after two posts for Bob, it's now the time for two concerning MAM: today, space to their bio, tomorrow, a few clips.

A wollen fabric heart pinned on a t-shirt, a marked geeky-nerd attitude is what make My Awesome Mixtape unique of its kind... Five guys with a mission: "Make your heart beat and your hands clap in time". It all started in a room surrounded by a wonderful bolognese panorama similar to the darkest and most gothic Edgar Allan Poe's settings... Here is where MAM are born and grew up with their "Catchy Geek Pop", something totally different from the Poe's landscape! Friendly, Happy, Fresh, Young (as the age of the band members) the my awesome mixtape songs are certainly inspired to the Anticon Scene (why?, themselves ...most of all), Suburban Kids with Biblical Name, The Faint, Tender Forever and the Blow. What will happen next?! That's basically unknown, apart from spreading the Nerd Word all over europe and the entire world.

MAM's story starts, like that of many other bands, in their bedroom.

That’s where, at the tail end of 2006, Maolo, Checco and Bebo – three spritely Bolognese regaz – half-jokingly start making music. Mixing and matching their favourite styles, they end up generating an original mix of indie rock, hip hop and electronica, the kind you cannot fail to dance to.

In the space of a few months, the band’s first songs become the talk of the town, and soon enough they are hailed everywhere as Italy’s next big thing. At that point, leaving the bedroom to go out and play with the big kids is almost mandatory. After a few changes in line-up and solo experiments, MAMe become a fivesome: Maolo Torreggiani, Andrea Mancin, Andrea Sologni, Alessandro Scagliarini and Federico Spadoni. Their first album, titled My Lonely and Sad Waterloo, is published on September 8th 2007.

Upon the album’s release, the band has already played in half the country’s live venues, and tries successfully to go abroad and export their music in the rest of Europe. At the end of 2008, MAM’s Neverending Tour will have lined up a smashing 158 live gigs, and gained the band an award as Best Live Band of the season at the annual Meeting of Independent Labels in Faenza.

That’s not the end of it. MAM’s participation in a compilation sponsored by Mercedes-Benz, the special guest appearance in the ensemble video for La nuova musica italiana by Italian hardcore sensations Linea77, and the re-release of “My Lonely And Sad Waterloo” in Germany, and in Japan, start paving the way for a new album, scheduled for release in the fall of 2009.

How Could a Village Turn Into a Town, their second album, has been released in Italy and in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Recorded byBruno Germano of Settlefish, the album marks a new progression in My Awesome Mixtape’s artistic growth. Composed, arranged and played as a team effort, it matches its predecessor’s freshness with a newfound maturity and awareness in handling and shaping sound.

The album was preceded in May 2009 by the Other Houses EP, issued in double format, digital and coloured cassette tape (for a total of 168 numbered copies). The EP was accompanied by two live videos, made byOpificio Ciclope for Italian web TV Pronti al peggio, and contain three new songs(two of which will not be made available anywhere else), as well as two remixes by hot items of the Italian club scene Congorock and Peluche (Dariella of hip hop band Amari and Matteo Lavagna of Disco Drive).

With a new and improved line-up, once again a five-piece but without guitars, (its members are Maolo Torreggiani, Andrea Mancin, Andrea Suriani, Alessandro Scagliarini and Federico Spadoni), My Awesome Mixtape made their comeback on the Italian stage, and they hust ended their fourth European tour.

Stay tuned here tomorrow for a few nice clips of MAM!!

Cheers

Roberto Angelini @ PIN IV: SoloLive!!

Hello PanoPeople!!

We promised to tell you more about Roberto Angelini's PIN IV opening.

Here we are!

Roberto's new live project is fascinating: a SoloLive!

All alone on stage, a real one-man-band: with acoustic guitar, lapsteel, keyboards, theremin, didjeridoo.. playing loops, creating layers.. taking you somewhere else, on the wings of his songs.

This video could give you an idea.

But there's much more, to this show.

Roberto's live goes along together with the wonderful animation videos of B5 association.

A group of artisans from the heart of Roma, Trastevere, creating fascinating clips, mostly with drawings, plasticine..

Check this out: awesome!

This is what this incredible show looks like..

And it won't stay just a Tour, but will become a dvd, to finally fully realize the project Roberto has been working on for years.

Come and discover the world of Roberto Angelini's SoloLive, opening Panoplie Italian Nights IV on Friday, May 28th, at d:qliq!!

Exact schedule will soon be confirmed, but please note that Roberto will probably start the show quite early..

Cya there!!

PIN IV: Roberto Angelini

Hello PanoPeople!!

Panoplie Italian Nights IV will be opened, on Friday, May 28th, by a great comeback to Luxembourg:

Roberto Angelini!!

We probably don't need to tell you much about this talented singer/songwriter/guitar player from Roma.

It will be his 4th time playing at d:qliq in 3 years and a half.. but nearly 2 years and a half since last one!

First time was in December 2006 with Rodrigo d'Erasmo (at present, Afterhours' violin) for their Pong Moon tribute to Nick Drake: amazing how hot an acoustic set can be!

We will youtube soon (finally!) a couple of videos from that unforgettable night.

Second time, in June 2007, for the first PIN: another amazing acoustic set, this time all alone.

Here you have one of the highest moments of his set.

Third one, he joined Massimo Giangrande band on lapsteel, on February 2008.

And.. you know what? That time is was Roberto who proposed to come, and even paid his flight!! Clear proof of the special link between him and Luxembourg..

Again, here a video of the concert.

Since then, he has released an incredible album, La vista concessa, definitely one of the best Italian indie cds of 2009.

Here you have the clip of the first single.

This time, he will be back to d:qliq with a very special show: SoloLive!

Wanna know more about it?

Come back here tomorrow, for infos & videos!!

Cheers
