Calibro 35 – Discomania / Jazz Carnival (7″) [Record Kicks RK45110]

***PRE-ORDER – Est. 9 May 2025***

Calibro 35 continue their journey into the world of cinematic jazz-disco-funk with the release of a new 7″ featuring two afro-disco stormers. On the A side, they deliver a heavily afro-funk infused version of Piero Umiliani’s Italo-Cosmic-Disco classic “Discomania” while on the B-side the Milanese band drop an equally explosive reinterpretation of Brazilian-Disco hit “Jazz Carnival” by Azymuth. Both songs are taken from the highly anticipated new album “Exploration” that drops June 06 worldwide via Record Kicks.

Described by Rolling Stone as “the most fascinating, retro-maniac and genuine thing that has happened to Italy in the past few years,” Milan-based Calibro 35 enjoy a worldwide reputation as one of the coolest independent bands around. Active since 2007, during their long career, they have been sampled by Dr. Dre on Compton (“One Shot One Kill” feat. Snoop Dogg), Jay-Z (“Picasso Baby”), The Child of Lov & Damon Albarn (“One Day”), and Demigodz (“The Summer Of Sam”).
