Fortunato Durutti Marinetti states the sequel to his 2023 jubilant sophomore record Eight Waves In Search Of An Ocean is a homage to Anne Carson’s book Eros: The Bittersweet. Marinetti calls this style “poetic jazz rock,” drawing on the chillness of Donald Byrd and the expansiveness of Robert Wyatt. We’d call it apocalyptic ballroom indie, or: music to imagine yourself slow-dancing as the ship sinks.

Fortunato Durutti Marinetti :: Eight Waves In Search Of An Ocean
It takes a village to raise the music of Fortunato Durutti Marinetti. For his fourth album in three years, Toronto-via-Turin songwriter Daniel Colussi surrounds himself with a murderer’s row of collaborators, including members of Elrichman, Motorists, and Energy Slime. Colussi’s languid voice is always placed at the forefront of his meticulous arrangements, providing the narration for a sound he describes as “poetic jazz rock.”
