Alex Neri and Federico Grazzini – Desert Rose

Italian duo Alex Neri & Federico Grazzini are next up on Steve Lawler’s VIVa imprint to deliver three versions of ‘Desert Rose’, complemented with a deeper ‘NYC Mix’ from UK northern talent Burnski who brings his signature groove to the release.
 
“Desert Rose was created by Alex Neri and myself Federico Grazzini during a long jam session in the studio playing with vintage analog machines (Roland TR909, Jupiter 8 and Moog Voyager), messing around the main melancholic melody, trying different drum lines and experimenting. We recorded so much material that we decided to give more than one interpretation of the track. Moving in between house and techno, maintaining a strong old school attitude, each version shows a different point of view without missing the soul of the track.” – Federico Grazzini
