PAOLO RUSTICHELLI - MED GROOVE
Paolo Rustichelli's “Med Groove” has been #1 on the SmoothJazz.com indie chart for two
weeks and is currently at #9 on the Mediabase smooth jazz chart. A seducing
musical treat, Paolo uses edgy techniques, state of the art synthesizers,
plug-ins and other magical effects to create his full band sound for “Med
Groove.” A very open-minded and eclectic composer with a history rich in
classical, jazz, smooth jazz, rock and movie music for songs and soundtracks,
this one man band plays all the instruments on the songs by himself. Proudly embracing
the role of a renegade, Paolo believes firmly believes that a lot of the music
today is watered down by corporate think. Because so many people are now
involved in the process of making records, it is his belief that the artist
loses ownership of the actual art. “This is not a real honest picture of the
artist,” said Paolo. When you compose and perform all of the music as he does,
fans are given the opportunity to understand and interpret the art in its
truest form. Among his album
projects, Paolo recorded, performed and produced for rock-jazz superstars like
Carlos Santana and Miles Davis. In 1997, he released the album "Mystic
Man" in the United States through Island Records, which featured the
legendary Miles Davis, Carlos Santana, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Andy
Summers and the disco diva Jill Jones.
