Rocco Recommends
Monsieur Blumenberg the nom de plume of Federico Kikko Montefiori, from Italy’s masters of lounge, Montefiori Cocktail. Monsieur Blumenberg is Kikko’s solo side and over the years he has released some wonderful compositions such as in 2001’s Musique et Couleurs, Divertissement Avec du Punk Rock from 2017 and singles such as Tanamadana, Tempi d’Oro and Love In Tokyo.
Le bon monsieur has now just released a new ep: Nonsense Songs. Artwork by Anna Bertozzi. Produced and co-arranged by Daniele Bengi Benati (Ridillo, Flipper Music, That’s Amore Music), the title says it all.
“il disco che vi cambiera la vita…in peggio” (the album that will change your life… for the worse)
But it is also a blast.
With smash hits such as “Hi hi hi”, “Sushi Please”, “Bana banana” this collection of nonsense songs is sure to liven any social function, including Rocco’s favourite: “ Marà marà”, a very Umiliani-esque romp, to which when asked about its connection to Maná Maná, Kikko replied, “Actually, ‘Marà marà’ is the badly made version of Maná Maná.”
mais bien sûr!
Nonsense Songs is available on most platforms! Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music, iTunes
