Bandius Companion
Since 2009 this unconventional band beats the underground.
Started as the solo project of a musician digging his accordion and exploring sounds, developing his craft between daily street performances and eternal improvising sessions in the studio.
In 2014 the first releases appear with the singles “Pupu Naich” and “Rosewaltz”, both extracted from soundtracks for films and theatre. B.C. goes back to street performances until 2015 and with compositions created in that period produce “Gastank” with the Italian electronic master Paul Pet (Polpette - Dharma Label) and “Bailè”, a composition from the street repertoire. The next recording session begins in Venice and ends in Barcelona in 2016. Inspired by old exotica and waves of traditional folk from the 60s and 70s, “Selected Grooves" is already a cult EP.
Actually playing in Barcelona with the band and soon releasing PREGUNTAS FRACTALES, is also releasing a record with GURETTI, a duo with the artist Tiziano Ciao.
ChUPACONChA
ChUPACONChA is a hypnofunk duo formed by Juice (Giuliano Gius Cobelli, electric trumpet) and Jordan (Giorgio Fausto Menossi, drums). The band started in 2007 when the two Italian musicians met again in Barcelona after having briefly collaborated in Italy. Both jazz and hippie lovers, they mix improvised rock, funk, psychedelic and electronic music in wild and furious sessions and concerts.
Giuliano G.I.U.S. Cobelli
G.I.U.S. aka Giuliano Gius Cobelli is also half of the hypnofunk dúo Chupaconcha, producer for Maia Vidal, improviser in The Near Death Ensemble and in his own solo projects, performing with drums, percussions, synths, electronics and trumpet, usually through effects and loop stations.
Guretti
Guretti is the homonym first record of the musical collaboration between the accordionist Angelo Cacciolato and the visual artist and musician Tiziano Ciao. Before Angelo moved to Barcelona and got busy playing with his world music band “Bandius Companion”, they were both living in Venice, Italy, collaborating in art and music projects. Tiziano would play a big wooden harp, similar to a santoor or a dulcimer, which he builds himself out of old drawers. Tuning to Angelo’s accordion, soon they found out how well the instruments blended together.
They recorded this session in the basement of an old building, surrounded by the Venetian canals, with spare equipment and no preconceived compositions. Creating silence before sound, and space, and a delicate dialogue between the instruments, leading and following gently, in a beautiful, moving, mystical journey.
