Dive into the avant-garde world of Gabriele Mitelli with "The World Behind the Skin," a captivating solo project that showcases the Italian musician's virtuosic command over a variety of instruments and electronic soundscapes. Released on November 11, 2019, under the WE INSIST! Records label, this free jazz album is a testament to Mitelli's innovative spirit and his ability to push the boundaries of traditional jazz.
Comprising four immersive tracks—"Trip to the Abysses," "Just Take Another," "The Fisherman's Prayer," and "The Red Sunrise and the Octopus"—the album spans a concise yet impactful 44 minutes. Mitelli's mastery shines through as he seamlessly transitions between the cornet, alto flugelhorn, prepared trumpet, soprano sax, and electronics, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both experimental and deeply expressive.

His work has been recognized internationally, and this release is a standout piece in his prolific discography, which includes seven albums as a leader in 2019 alone. The album's poetic prose, penned by Nicola Di, adds an extra layer of depth, making it a multifaceted experience that engages both the ears and the mind.
Gabriele Mitelli's "The World Behind the Skin" is a must-experience for anyone with a penchant for avant-garde jazz and innovative soundscapes. It's a journey into the heart of free jazz, where tradition meets experimentation, and every note tells a story.
