About this concert
Nicola Conte är en världskänd DJ, producent, gitarrist och bandledare som nyligen har spelat in sitt första album för det legendariska skivbolaget MPS Records. Denna gång drog han med sig en stjärnspäckad ensemble med inga mindre än Gianluca Petrella, Theo Croker, Magnus Lindgren, Logan Richardson och sångerskorna Zara McFarlane och Bridgette Aofah. Skivan Let Your Light Shine On är ett mästerligt verk i gränslandet mellan soul och spirituell afro-jazz. Nicola Conte var bland de första att göra musik som blandade acid jazz med bossa nova, traditionell indisk musik och musik från gamla italienska 60-talsfilmer. På senare tid har han dragits snarare mot jazz med latinska influenser såsom på albumet Other Directions (Blue Note & Schema) och Rituals (Schema).

Nicola Conte Biography
Nicola Conte is a DJ and producer from Bari, Italy known for introducing an innovative style of acid jazz that incorporates bossa nova themes, melodies drawn from Italian film scores of the 1960's, easy listening themes, and ethnic Indian music.
Conte, a classically-trained musician, is mastermind of a collective of acid jazz revivalists, "The Fez collective" (and originally a member of the group Fez Combo), based in the Italian town of Bari, and the Schema label, their record label for promoting their distinctly Italian approach to acid jazz.
Conte's first album was Jet Sounds of 2000. The single "Bossa Per Due" gained international recognition and was an underground hit. It was used almost immediately for a prime-time commercial for Acura automobiles. The album was licensed for American distribution by Thievery Corporation's Eighteenth Street Lounge (ESL) label in the summer of 2001 as Bossa Per Due, and was slightly reconfigured version of the Italian Jet Sounds album. This was followed by the Jet Sounds Revisited remix album in late 2002. Two years later, Blue Note's French subsidiary released Conte's next album Other Directions.
Conte also produced albums by other artists such as Paolo Achenza Trio.
