Visionary Italian composer and bass player Lorenzo Feliciati’s new RareNoise release arises out of a long-sought after collaboration with Italian master percussionist and sound-designer Michele Rabbia. In Antikythera, named after the Greek 1st Century astronomical computation device discovered in a shipwreck early in the 20th Century, Feliciati and Rabbia coalesce studio improvisation with incredibly detailed post production work, to produce a ‘musical mechanism’ of rare elegance and precision, spanning a bridge between ecstatic electric jazz and exquisite soundscape design. Special guests on Antikythera include trumpeter Cuong Vu, saxophonist Andy Sheppard, Italian pianists Rita Marcotulli and Alessandro Gwis and Feliciati’s Naked Truth and Mumpbeak bandmate, keyboardist Roy Powell.

As a follow-up to his most personal project to date – 2015’s “KOI” – in-demand Italian Jazz-Rock bassist Lorenzo Feliciati has upped the ante on “Elevator Man”, a powerhouse recording with echoes of King Crimson, Allan Holdsworth and other Progressive Rock icons. His new album features a rotating cast of stellar musicians, including King Crimson’s drummer Pat Mastelotto, former Holdsworth/Zappa’s drummer Chad Wackerman, Swedish guitar shredder Mattias IA Eklundh (of the Jonas Hellborg Trio and Art Metal), Italian Progressive metal Muitarist Marco Sfogli (currently of the legendary Italian Prog Rock band Premiata Forneria Marconi, aka PFM), trumpeter Cuong Vu and his Naked Truth and Mumpbeak bandmate Roy Powell on distortion-laced clavinet. As well as composing and arranging all the material, Feliciati plays fretted and fretless basses, electric guitar and keyboards on his seventh and most potent recording as a leader to date.

Lorenzo Feliciati and Dominique Vantomme met for the first time in Brussels where both of them lived for a couple of years.
Ever since their first interaction, the chemistry between the counterparts were established, music spoke to them in different tongues, more than words, furthermore their friendship grew with their ongoing recording sessions that they were involved in, which took place in Jet Studio-Bruxelles which is managed/operated by Rudy Coclet.
“Fake” is the result of this wonderful veteran collaboration. Adding magical touches to this project are Cuong Vu, Eraldo Bernocchi and DJ skizo.
