Blue Note presents Nicola Conte & Spiritual Galaxy which comprises Nicola Conte on guitar, Carolina Bubbico on vocals, Luca Alemanno on bass, Simon Moullier on vibraphone/keyboard/percussions, Teppo Mäkynen on drums, Abdissa Assefa on percussions, Timo Lassy on saxophone. The Italian guitarist and bandleader Nicola Conte has recorded his first album for MPS. For the most part recorded in Bari, Italy and Johannesburg, South Africa, it is a sensitive work of art that crosses the border between soul and spiritual Afro-jazz.Musicians hate to have to pigeonhole their music. Nevertheless, Nicola Conte makes the attempt, "You could call it spiritual or cosmic Afro-jazz. I could also agree with calling it Afro-soul." For his new album, "Let Your Light Shine On," this Italian DJ, producer, guitarist, and bandleader has casually interwoven soul and grooves pulsing with the beat and breath of Africa. In so doing, Conte combines elements that seemingly do not belong together.
