Modern –Retro – and Funky are 3 words that can best describe this new
recording venture. A soulful, fresh and funky ride through 13
sparkling sides, bringing back as the title suggests, a mix of
sophisticated soul-jazz productions recalling everything from James
Brown-fueled funk to Marvin Gaye-ish soul to George Duke-styled funky
jazz.

Mr. Di Lorenzo’s sophomore release (following up on 2005’s
“Urbanized”) combines nine stellar original instrumentals with four
classic vocal covers from the Crusaders, Earth, Wind & Fire, The
Spinners and yes, the Fred Astaire songbooks. Retro and funky old
school sounds with a modern twist.

One listen to Fred Astaire’s old standard “One For My Baby” and you
will be hooked as this is destined to transform into a new classic of
today.

“Can’t Hide Love”, first single gaining radio adds.

Currently available on iTunes, Amazon and CDBaby.
