Nada nos hace más felices en Sofa Tunes que descubrir nuevos artistas al gran público, aunque Mailu ya es de la casa hace muchos años. Las primeras impresiones sobre la tierra de esta ordinaria princesa marciana están recogidas en clave de funk electrónico en un maravillosos 12” cuyo artworks corre a cargo de la ilustradora Elena Vera. Una plástica más propia de Herbie Hancock, Clavinet o Rhodes, Slap Bass son los ingredientes que Mailu este maravilloso teclista ha utilizado para poner banda sonora a este aterrizaje marciano.
Esta colección de 10 tracks nos trasladan al lounge bar más bizarro de la galaxia. 10 temas con abruptos finales extraidos de los cálidos lives del artista navarro.
1er Single: Que asco “Original Mix”

Strut presents an exclusive new collaboration between UK jazz keyboardist Greg Foat and Venetian ambient / electronic maestro Gigi Masin on ‘Dolphin’.

Recorded remotely during 2021-2022 the album took shape in the form of mutual compositions, gradually developed and embellished online. Final recording sessions took place at the majestic Chale Abbey Studios on the Isle Of Wight with Moses Boyd (drums), Tom Herbert (bass) and Siobhan Cosgrove (flute, clarinet) adding elements to several pieces. Tracks include the reflective, wistful single ‘Viento Calido’ and drifting ambient piece ‘Sabena’, a beautiful tribute to Gigi’s wife who sadly passed away during 2022.



Greg Foat has recorded prolifically in recent years for Athens Of The North, Jazzman and Strut including acclaimed albums Symphonie Pacifique (2020) and The Mage (2019). Best known for his 1986 ambient masterpiece Wind and as a member of Gaussian Curve, Gigi Masin has enjoyed a revival in recent years through his Calypso album on R&S’s Apollo label and renewed touring. Dolphin represents Greg and Gigi’s first landmark recording collaboration together. “I first heard Gigi’s album Wind in 2016,” remembers Greg. “I was living in Miami and I heard it playing one Summer evening Since then, it has always been in my mind to be able to record together.”
