Trombettista da sempre acustico, da circa un anno sto cercando di trovare elementi per fare jazz elettrico e/o electro-jazz. I riferimenti sono gli anni 70, da Miles Davis a Herbie Hancock, da Freddie Hubbard a Don Cherry, e poi Brian Eno e David Byrne, fino a oggi con l'electro-jazz di Petter Molvaer. Cerco bassisti, testieristi, ma anche campionatori, turntablist e chi ha voglia di fare qualcosa di originale. - Judy Nylon
