about

Blue Mondays is the artistic union of Italian underground talents Alex Ferrazzi and Keemani: after debuting their first works on the VA Memento012, the duo went on to release on labels such as Sonar Kollektiv, Snatch! Records, Manocalda and Rebirth, gaining a cult following among the more experimental House Music fanatics. Their breakthrough came in the summer of 2013 when they were invited by Luciano to take the stage at his Ibiza party at Ushuaïa, giving them the chance to bring their blend of dope beats, smoked out samples and nu Disco to the flashy crowds of the White Island. With their LP “All Cats Are Blue” they’re back on Idriss D’s imprint: opening Intro “If You Need To Go From 105 To 115” is atmospheric, its synth arpeggio drenched in background noises;“Talk To People”is upbeat and lively: its rolling bassline and manic organ refrain play along ethereal vocals; “Holes”’s live bass and guitar riff are reminiscent of 80s New Wave, synth textures all around the rock vibes. The title track’s nine minutes are filled with imposing keyboard melodies, while a pulsating bassline underpins a multilayered emotional composition; “Dig It, Understand It” evolves around two parts: the first half is spaced out, with flutes playing, retaining a live improvisational feeling, while second half’s Acid influences are delightfully twisting. “I Shine”’s lounge and balearic, sun soaked and sweet; “E Dagara” (with Gabin Dabiré) has bells and whistles all around, a lot of ethnic influences that create a delicate and soft mood; “Nerd Technique”’s pounding kick drum opens up to a Kraftwerkian Electronica piece, while “Lines” is percussive and features a dark intriguing singing. “Silent People”’s field recordings flow through a groovy rhythm; “ILMRDMMRD” is dancey and trippy, with a bunch of loopy stabs to add colour and spice. “Tropicale”’s horns and strings are gentle and sophisticated, and “Rehab Of The Bored Jack” is a playful little ditty.
