Tuttipari (Finisterre)

The “marranzano”, Sicilian for jew's harp is the core of this band from Catania. In this project there is all of Sicily, the ancient Trinacria and the modern island as different rhythms and instruments intertwine with the sound of an electrified jew's harp and the beat of primitive drums. Dum dum and didjeridoo become the drum n' bass for the syncopated, psychedelic raids of the electric jew's harp; tambourine and djembč create African-Sicilian rhythms, with the voice switching between sea and urban chants, serenade and ragamuffin. Sicily is celebrated and criticized with energy, involvement, collectivity and passion.

An obstinate “marranzano”, Sicilian for jew's harp, which recalls the lava of the Etna volcano gives the time and the sound to this new, wonderful band from Catania.

In this project there is all of Sicily, the ancient Trinacria and the modern island, because the Ipercussonici mix different rhythms and instruments and intertwine the sound of an electrified jew's harp with the beat on primitive drumheads.

A strong impact of rhythmic fire and a definetely innovative sound, which comes from the researches and the enthusiasm of these musicians which have gone through other rhythmic volcanoes and they have put them back inside an ancient and the same time modern musical frame. Tuttipari is the discographical debut by the Ipercussonici, from Catania.

Dum dum and didjeridoo are like drum & bass for the syncopated, psychedelic raids of the electric jew's harp; tambourine and djembč create African-Sicilian rhythmical frames, with the voice switching between sea chant and urban chant, serenade and ragamuffin. Sicily is celebrated and criticized, through an assumption of responsability, which is both personal and social. The vision of the world of these young artists comes from energy, involvement, collectivity and love. Their music affects the body and makes it dance.
