about

Barà Sanja.
First solo work of the italian drummer composer Luca Deriu. The track is part of a mini concept album entitled "Synth(esis)". It is a musical experiment that was born during the isolation imposed by the COVID-19 emergency.

The single "Barà Sanja" is a tribute to two traditional malian rhythms. The composition starts from these two rhythmic patterns of african doundouns transported and interpreted on the drums in a personal and modern way. The new rhythmic base becomes the development substrate for the melody, harmony and synth sounds that are all inspired by the jazz streams of jazz-rock-fusion of the 70s where groups such as Weather Report and Return to Forever have left a very important musical legacy.

Luca Deriu tries to "synthesize" all the old musical inputs together with the new ones acquired during the lockdown due to the coronavirus in order to escape isolation and produce music that makes him travel. The main tool for this process becomes the computer, the only "means of transport" that allows a regenerating journey through the rediscovery of synths and the manipulation of sound. The computer is also the performer that accompanies the performance on drums of Deriu who with his personal interpretation tries to convey the musical message with the aim of making it as human as possible.
