about

Next up on Soul Clap Records is a release featuring an epic collision of generational heroes. 80’s brothers Ricky & Franz Cardelli (Funk Rimini/ Capofortuna) + 90’s legends Dj Rame (Pastaboys/Capofortuna) and DJ Rocca (Ajello/Erodiscotique) together they form the supergroup under the moniker: ROCCAPOFORTUNA.

We initially met these Italian musicians upon collaboration for our Italo Funk compilations paying homage to Italy and its talent. We’re elated to sustain the funky Italian connection and to bring you this un-abiding release.

“People sometimes say the music we make is hard to use in sets, but the music, the musicality, the instrumentation, adds more to listen to on the dance floor. People really understand music these days, so we add flute, melody, breaks, and sometimes we just get weird and make weird dance music! It’s better than delivering something too simple.

We deserve that. people deserve more musicality!
Do you agree Luca?” (Ricky asks DJ Rocca)

“YES! bring back music in the dance!” He responds

During our interview it didn’t take long to recognize the deep alignment in music interests. “We LOVE Breaks! 4 on the floor just bores us! need breaks, even if just for the bottom line, it makes more groove.” both parties share. As young adults from Rimini, Ricky and Franz recall hopping on a train 3 hours North to Reggio Emilia’s infamous club The Maffia, just to sneak a listen of the nearly non existent Drum n Bass music played by resident DJ, DJRocca. Fast forward 2 decades into the 2020 pandemic and with Dj Rame as Capofortuna they finally get the opportunity to get in the studio with a man they looked up to upon their discovery of the music they now dedicate their careers to. And it’s a match made in heaven. As musicians , Ricky and Franz produce in a fluid manner, layering and jamming and layering some more, Dj Rame on the other hand, approaches music with a “remixer” hat on and re-arranges elements, edits & organizes them into the songs you hear today. DjRocca comes from both worlds and he adds lots to the music, crafting also a flute solo!
