- The second LP from The Diaphanoid's side project will come out on Bear Funk in March.
Marco Maccari and Andrea Bellentani will release their second album as Blakula, Back From Mystery City, in March on Bear Funk.
Maccari and Bellentani are an Italian duo (in case you couldn't tell) who started making cosmic disco together a few years ago as The Diaphanoids. They first appeared as Blakula in summer of 2010 with Permanent Midnight, an album that delivered left-field disco with campy horror film flair. Back From Mystery City follows a similar blueprint, with the core duo employing a cast of live musicians (including string ensembles, brass ensembles and the Prague Symphony Orchestra) to perform their organic disco compositions. All of the tracks were composed, arranged and produced by Maccari and Bellentani and recorded in Rome in 2010 and 2011.
