Lorenzo Bianchi's producer and musician skills bring Odette Di Maio's clean voice to the surface of an ocean of manipulated sounds, light noises, whispered words, warm basses, unusual rhythms. Avoiding the latest musical trends yet using the most advanced means of experimental acoustic music to reach softness in a minimal way, LORBI proposes tracks varying in structure and feeling in an original mix of styles and beats. Never forgetting the value of songs over the charm of a refined techique, Lorbi's music strucks the listeners with powerful melodies and visionary lyrics. LORBI suggests a nocturnal atmosphere with sweet and sour notes that remind you of already known musical realms but will still introduce you to a new dimension of a musical genre that keeps evolving and that always rejects definition. Lorenzo Bianchi, from Milan, now living in Paris, is a composer and a 360° musician, founder and member of the French ES-Crew, one among the european music avantgardes, involved in performing arts, dance and theatre worldwide."
