AR019 - FULVIO MARAS / ALFREDO POSILLIPO / LUCA PROIETTI - SFUMATURE LP + 29x29 Insert:

This release is individually 300 hand-numbered limited edition. The first 100 copies are pressed on 180 gr. WHITE vinyl.

It's dedicated to the 1992 Organic / Ambient / Jazz masterpiece by the Italian Musicians FULVIO MARAS, ALFREDO POSILLIPO and LUCA PROIETTI, containing also 2 Unreleased Bonus tracks.

Archeo come through with another stunning relic dusted down from a forgotten corner of Italian music culture. Fulvio Maras, Alfredo Posillipo and Luca Proietti originally released Sfumature back in 1992, and it's quite the spectacle to behold. Minimal synths provide an underlay for the tense sustained pads and Maras' tumbling percussion on "Panico Iniziale", while nimble hand drums spiral around woozy brass and delicate chimes on "Trombe Di Alfredo". The mood gets seductively dreamy on "Amori" thanks in no small part to the double bass playing at its core. Highly accomplished, inquisitive and utterly satisfying music occupying its own unique space.
