The mighty Argentine progsters BUBU make a triumphant comeback with their 3rd and final album EL ULTIMO CORTEJO. Composed partly based on notes discovered by the band’s mastermind Daniel Andreoli in his parents’ basement, dating back to the Anabelas (1976) period, suffused with sonic elements by an evergreen lineup that boasts some of the finest upcoming musicians from Buenos Aires’ rampant neoprog scene, EL ULTIMO CORTEJO carves new pathways in BUBU’s evolutionary trajectory by blending in their idiosyncratic avant-prog canvass elements of deconstructive tango, carnivalito, and space rock. The result is a beautiful, uniquely complex masterpiece that fuses a shamanic, mystical, and wild force with classical complexity and the streetwise fury of Buenos Aires, a city that defies time. The CD version includes 2 bonus tracks, not available on vinyl. The vinyl version, available in 3 colors, is couched in a gatefold cover featuring the spectacular bespoke design by one of Argentina’s finest contemporary painters.

RIALZU biography

RIALZU biography by Gilles Renne (Rialzu) and Alain Lebon (Soleil Zeuhl) It was during the rebirth of the Corsican Independence movement that the only record of RIALZU appeared. RIALZU, a band whose musical adventure plunges me back into the far-away and almost ghostly universe of my youth. RIALZU was created in the early 1970’s at the peak of an incredible musical effervescence : many bands, soon to become legends, were breaking musical taboos and adventuring onto virgin territories by mixing musical styles with incredible creativity and thus laying the new foundations of music yet to be. It was in this atmosphere that, as a teenager, I began teaching myself to play the guitar by trying to decipher the magical notes of my ‘guitar heroes’ from their albums. I met Christophe Mac Daniel, a young organist from Corsica, at a Jesuit boarding school in Avignon. Together we took our first musical steps by starting up a band (of ever-changing names) with two other...
