It makes sense that Matteo Marchese is seeking film and TV placement, because his songs are sweeping soundscapes—huge blankets of music that create worlds under enormous swathes of color. Jazz, pop, indie, electronica and world music combine into a trance-y, beautiful cacophony.
He’s good at picking collaborators, but each song really does feel like we’ve been picked up and placed into his imagination. “Soul Please” feels like a genuine plea, an internal dialog that we’re somehow privy to. The multilingual lyrical approach is remarkably effective, even if (especially if) the listener isn’t fluent in the presented language.
