Comment:
Macchiato Funky is a quartet from Italy whose line consists of such
musicians as Michele Seggiaro (guitar), Massimo Ferretto (guitar),
Nicolò Seggiaro (bass guitar), and Adriano Bossola (electronic &
production). I would like to compare Macchiato Funky with Tortoise
but the main difference between the combos is that Macchiato Funky`s
music used to lean more toward yacht rock-ish horizons rather than
flirting with jazz-y edges. Yet, the line between these stylistic
characterizations is relatively thin. At times even funky rhythmic
patterns used to drive the course (however, it is a bit more synthesised funk than the music of Pop Group, or Gang Of Four due to prominent role by Adriano Bossola). Similarly to Tortoise they use
electronic layers and sonic effects around the pace in an adept and
intriguing way. Otherwise, the music is an artsy alternative
rock/post-rock example being issued on an Italy-based imprint, La
bèl. Great album by any means.
