One of the most versatile, skilled and authentic figures in the Bolognese music scene of the mid- to late 20th century, Minuti was a multi-instrumentalist, composer, music producer and recording studio manager, as well as a painter, etcher and graphic artist. He devoted his life to music (especially jazz, a genre that has enjoyed a long tradition in the city of Bologna), so much so that even his visual art was inspired by music.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collection brings together music composed by Minuti between the '70s and the early '80s. Within this timeframe, his first library compositions can be described as cheerful pop-jazz pieces veering towards either easy listening – with vocal harmonies, jazzy vocalizations, and rhythmic elements from bossa nova, samba and swing – or a more psychedelic style, with the use of chromatism and an experimental rock feel here and there. Later on he also experimented with genres such as reggae and increasingly used electronic instruments (synths, drum machines, loop stations, etc.). However, his playful, light-hearted approach to composition remained unchanged, or was even enhanced, in his later output (which, like his earlier work, features simple musical structures, terse arrangements, and delicate and linear melodies). On a technical note, it is worth mentioning that, not unlike better-known maestros like Piero Umiliani and Giuliano Sorgini, Minuti often used the technique of overdubbing and played most instruments on his tracks (flute, saxophone, organ, piano, percussion), sometimes even singing some of the vocals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Four Flies","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50463900631371,"sku":"1170191","price":34.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/e039cd5a-05b7-42e2-bce7-2a193dd396fc_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727268246"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/collections\/test_ffd79082_thumbnail_4096_c83f6025-8d57-4a33-a894-3b74025fc10f.jpg?v=1727268225","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/collections\/ezy-minus.oembed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
