Michele Santoriello, aka MiCO, is a composer, bassist and producer. On April 30, 2021, his self-titled album was released for Abeat Records. A multifaceted artist who combines different spirits, thoughts, forms and musical languages ​​in a single sound and rhythmic direction. Inspired by funk, stimulated by nu jazz and fusion, linked by a visceral love for Stevie Wonder's soul, MiCO translates sensations, scenarios and moments of real life into music. An album that encompasses all of himself and his own human, spiritual and artistic research. The expressive contribution of Massimo Valentini to the saxophone, and of the international trumpet champion, Fabrizio Bosso, give rapture. The sound level is bright, limpid, enriched by a sense of complete and clear arrangement, rhythmically sustained in an impeccable way. An enjoyable disc full of rhythm and pathos, and at the same time out of the traditional canons. A record that seems “vintage” in some ways and which instead represents a sum of what the last decades have been able to give us in the best moments, summarizing a dimension of multiculturalism, of fusion of elements and sounds.
