Walter Del Vecchio`s Really Swing label operates out of Napoli and like fellow Italians, Edizioni Mondo, wears its love of Library Music proudly.

291out make music closest to the source; organic break-laden Jazz-Funk with dexterous racing solos and tracks taking in time signatures like lithium users mood swings (I was thinking of Carlos Franzetti`s “Graffiti” mixed with Dario Argento and Goblin). Shorter pieces, longer pieces. Thrillers and chases, action and suspense. Bop Singslayer`s beats are more crunchy, bass heavier, chopping and screwing R&B`s history into a future framework. Ether are fittingly more abstract. Old gramophones hijacked for Al Dobson Jr. carnivals.

Walter`s own Quiroga samples with a magpie`s eye, making modern homages to vintage production houses, in the vein of Japan`s Gak Sato and Towa Tei, and Romania`s Future Nuggets, whilst taking in a golden age of Jazz “influenced” Hip Hop, DJs Smash, Cam, and Fondle`Em instrumentals. Ballistic Brothers and Eccentric Afros looping Samba, Water Melon Exotica, Mireille Mathieu and Burt Bacharach chanson, Axelrod`s kit, Cinecittà Roma movie dialogue, into Moog crazy dubs, synthetic Boogie, party raps and broken Balearic beats for cocktail lounges, space age bachelor pads. Drum scientific.
