Sale Rosa is the new psych-disco pop album by dellacasa maldive, out today November 12th, 2021 for the independent record label La Valigetta, led by the singles Domani, Voglio Solo Stare Fuori All’Aria Aperta, Pedalini and Sto Perdendo Me Stesso.
dellacasa maldive is the Italian music project by Riccardo Dellacasa, multi-instrumentalist born in 1991 and active between Paris, Milan, and Venice, where he wrote, arranged, produced and mixed the new album during the winter of 2020/2021. The years spent on stage, together with Wemen, Emmanuelle and Verano, have contributed to a conscious process of stylistic research which looks beyond any geographical border.
Following an approach devoted to essentiality and total freedom of expression, the result is an encounter between electronics and psychedelia, inspired by artists such as ESG, Funkadelic, Larry Gus, The Holydrug Couple and many others. It’s music to sing and dance, fast-moving between catchy melodies and spoken word, engaging rhythms and funk-garage guitars. Sale Rosa is the second album by dellacasa maldive after the debut album Amore Italiano, mixed by Marco Fasolo from Jennifer Gentle and released in 2019. Dellacasa says that “Sale Rosa is a record in which I put my face, talking about stories that I have really lived, and that I have realized completely on my own“.
dellacasa maldive tries to stay in balance between LCD Soundsystem and Franco Battiato, electronic music and songwriting. The gentle but pressing beat reminds us that we want to jump and live, while Riccardo’s voice explains why music is such an important refuge and cure. These are not only simple songs.
