Luz Da Joaca Editor’s Pick

“Luz da Joaca” is a track taken from S-Tone Inc.’s latest full-length “Onda”, here retreated by the magic touch of Maestro Gerardo Frisina with his unique taste. A musical journey in two different movements, both in a Batucada style: the first half of the album exalts the original melody sung by Toco, while the second half is a dub rhythm-focused version especially made for a DJ use. Once again Mr. Frisina gives us a sample of his skills as an affirmed producer and longtime collaborator of Schema Records! S-Tone Inc. Is multi-instrumentalist jazz musician Stefano Tirone’s main musical project. Originating from Milan, Italy, Tirone has been a professional musician for over twenty years. The first official S-Tone Inc. #recording was released in 1992 during the acid jazz era, a formative time for Tirone, who was heavily influenced by the combination of soul, jazz and Latin rhythms of the period.
