OHM GURU - "This Is Your Life"

"This is your life" is taken from the album "Cinema" (IRM 890 CD - 2009)

Riccardo Rinaldi aka Ohm Guru started to get involved with the music world in the late 70's, attracted by the New Wave movement. With the technologic revolution and the arrival of computers in music production during the 80's, Riccardo debuted as musician/producer/sound engineer with several Bologna based bands. His Ohm Guru moniker was launched in the 90's, when he began to produce his own music and co-produce another seminal Irma artists: DJ Rodriguez, Bossa Nostra, Gazzara, Colle Der Fomento, as well as other important Italian acts like Neffa and Sud Sound System. At the time he was also a member of Aeroplanitaliani, together with Alessio Bertallot and Roberto Vernetti, winners of the critics award at the 1992 Sanremo Festival with the song 'Zitti Zitti'. The same tune, remixed by Luca LTJ Trevisi, became an Acid Jazz classic thanks to Gilles Peterson, who pushed it as one of his favourite tunes in those days. Other Ohm Guru productions from that period reached classic status on the electronic/downtempo scene: 'Moon Beat' by LTJ Xperience, Montedivenere under his own name and, above all, 'Ocean Beach' by Black Mighty Orchestra. In 2002 he founded, together with Ninfa, his own music company One Eyed Fish, to take care of production, publishing, mastering and management. The label by the same name, affiliated to Irma, after having launched a bunch of talented new artists, now releases Ohm Guru's long awaited third solo album, titled 'Cinema'. The balance of electronic and acoustic sounds which characterized the previous album 'Echo', on 'Cinema' is even more emphasized, with excursions towards Indie Rock territories.
Main featured vocalist on the album is Caterina Soldati (aka Agrado), young singer from Bologna and member of Ohm Guru's live line-up. She's the one who sings on the Banderas cover 'This Is Your Life'. Other guests are Ninfa on two tracks, Georgeanne Kalweit (former Delta V lead singer), the mysterious Vagina Hendrix, Ask and T Mike.
