Born as a spin-off of the BLUE 2147 musicians' collective, R:ED represents the most electronic side of my musical activity. I met guitarist, producer and sound manipulator Elia Anelli in 2017 and it was immediately clear that all the ingredients were present to kick-start a joint project. So, R:ED was born.
In 2019 we released our first record, the EP «Backdrop», a musical journey dedicated to the sea leaving plenty of room for improvisation, sound textures and action sounding.
Thanks to a collaboration with Swiss National Radio «Rete Due» we had the opportunity to work on an extended live version of our music, which was performed and live-broadcasted at the «Festival di Musica e Cultura Jazz di Chiasso» in March 2022, featuring Swiss bassist Francesco Rezzonico and legendary Norwegian trumpet player and pioneer of Electro-Jazz Nils Petter Molvær.
