Donny Benét / Il Basso Royal Blue Vinyl
PRE-ORDER Shipping Out February 13th
After the success and deep satisfaction achieved by Le Piano, Donny Benét has returned into the instrumental fold with the next album of the series: Il Basso.
The album pays tribute to the instrument that at any given time is the foundation, glue and shining star of music…we’re talking about The Bass!
A man of taste, Don revisited some of his all time favourite bassists, including: Paul Jackson, Bernard Edwards, Freddie Washington, Leon Sylvers, Stanley Clarke, Eberhard Weber and Mr Pastorius, who were all influential figures in his journey as a young bassist.
"Rather than presenting a “bass heavy” record full of tricks and illusions, I wanted to create a body of complementing songs that allowed various instruments to equally shine at their given moments. I had so many great memories and a fondness associated with my favourite 70’s jazz fusion records, which can simultaneously fit into the background or draw in the listener at any given time. I hope that Il Basso can serve the listener in the same way, drawing them into the beauty of the bass in its various roles!”
Written, performed, produced and recorded by Benét, Donny utilises the inspirational palettes of his vintage equipped studio Donnyland Studios.
Il Basso is released on Donnyland Records.
