Gerardo Frisina – Joyful Sound – 12″ (Schema)

Playful Italian club cuts from Gerardo Frisina on his astutely named LP Joyful Sound. Taking influence from well-trodden sounds, perhaps each describable (at least by genre pedants) as Afro-Latin music, broken beat, jazzdance and minimal house – whatever the symbiotic result, it sounds great. We’re caught off-guard as low-end scraping pulsers like ‘Almost Free’ blend surprisingly brilliantly with dreamy piano-minimal bits such as ‘Kilig’.
