REVIEWS:

"Dem Wahl-Frankfurter merkt man seine Liebe für elektronische Beats und ausgefuchste Grooves an, ebenso wie seine Affinität zu jazziger Improvisation. Geschmackvoll und ohne frickel Faktor groovt und soliert Zanghieri über die erstklassig klingenden Songs."

Bass Professor - Lars Lehmann

“I’ve been hearing mention of Claudio for some time now online in various bass related forums and networking sites. I was pretty excited to receive the new album and get to listening! First, it’s a wonderful looking CD. Top notch design and the playing is great! Musicality and composition seems to be the goal here. The writing is solid, very well done and the band sounds great. Claudio never tries to stand out at the expense of the song, which I love to hear. I applaud Claudio’s musical maturity and look forward to hearing more from him in years to come.”
