Cosmic Temple Chapter 1
Daniele Baldelli

Daniele Baldelli producer now has nothing to envy about Daniele Baldelli the DJ. This is demonstrated by the authoritativeness of the first two 12”s of six in the series "Cosmic Temple” on the Mondo Groove label. What first strikes the eye are the covers, with fluorescent colors, which will form a patchwork created by Aldo Drudi (the designer of Valentino Rossi), a large mosaic that interprets garish aesthetics/logoa Cosmic. But immediately after the music takes the stage: 3 tracks in "Chapter 1" and 3 tracks in "Chapter 2", are able to tell the true mood of the imaginary Baldelli’s sound and take them to a land of wonders. 

Chapter 1: numbers like Thyratron, with Ricky Burattini (Justofunk) on piano, playing a utopian fusion as if Peter Daou was weaned at Cosmic in Lazise (Italy) instead of the Paradise Garage in New York, or Inner Light, Francesca Amati with the voice, which is pure 2015 electro-pop, and the rhythmic bass on Diffrazione

Chapter 2: the phrasing of Zircaloy, and still that yin and yang that composed Krebs Cycle, with Burattini on synth, a race horse deep disco at 120 bpm that goes into stratospheres, and Afelio, a lethargic space ballet at 90 bpm.
