ABOUT THIS ITEM

Clap Rules is the pseudonym of Fabrizio Mammarella, Andrea Gabriele and Max Leggieri. After well received EPs for labels like Tiny Sticks and Dissident and remixes for DFA artist Michoacan, New York’s In Flagranti and French electronic music pioneer Etienne De Crecy, they have caught the attention of DJs and music lovers from many different scenes. With a deep love for vintage equipment and recording techniques they mix this up with a fresh modern approach to concoct electronic music with no boundaries, which in itself is what Bearfunk is all about, so this marriage was made in heaven.

We lift off with “Silver Mountains” a beautiful bouncy p-funk excursion which features guest vocals from “Marco Mazzei” with his intense call to “return to me” Marco also features on “Get Excited” another low-slung ditty which is drenched in da funk and also calls on the talents of Geoff Warren who adds flute and alto sax to the mix. Elsewhere we have the pure mayhem of “Pericoloso” a glitchy percussive jam made for the night. “Golden Hands” the title track from the LP is a sparkling Rhodes led gem of ambient bliss, perfect for summer cruising on the Yacht. More late night heads down moments can be found on “Azzardo” Geoff Warren also add his magic to “Approccio” yet more off kilter fuzz made for the club and more proof of the versatility of this unique three-piece.
