INDIE MOODS by CHANT SONG ORCHESTRA

If the “risk” factor, on our music scene seems to be no longer appreciated anymore, by artists in the first place, the recording by the CHANTSONG ORCHESTRA directed by Igor Sciavolino comes as an appreciable gust of novelty and experimentation.
Indie Mood is all but a cover album dedicated to 1990s alterative Italian rock-pop. The classics comprised in the repertoire must not be mistaken as a mere rereading but come as a new fresh reinvention of the chosen tunes according to an innovative operation that sees some of the protagonists of the original releases directly involved. Those artists have put themselves to the test with great enthusiasm, resuming their – or their colleagues’ – creations with the intention of shuffling the cards once again on a creative level, to remodel them and blow new life into them. Hence this compilation featuring invited artists of the likes of Cristina Donà, Cristiano Godano (Marlene Kuntz), Frankie Hi Nrg, Mauro Ermanno Giovanardi (La Crus), Emidio Clementi (Massimo Volume, El Muniria), Emiliano “Emo” Carlo Audisio (Linea 77) and Luca Morino (Mau Mau) is not a simple parade of known faces and hosts (there is also Aldo Nove in the unusual role of “orator” with an unpublished writing of his) but a confirmation of the talent of these artists.
