Before I sign off, a special mention about Peter Cincotti's latest album, Metropolis.
I've been listening to this non-stop in the car for the past fortnight, and consider it Peter's best work yet.
Previously known for his adventurous interpretations of jazz classics and fabulous piano-playing skills ( he trained at the illustrious Manhattan School Of Music ), he decided to branch out into the pop / rock genre a few years ago, recording East Of Angel Town.
It was a laudable effort, but an awkward transition which wasn't very well-received.
With Metropolis, however, Peter has definitely found his mojo. Congratulations! :)
Blending pop, rock, funk, jazz and techno, this is a heady mixture that showcases his writing talent, and also features much stronger vocals.
Every track is fantastic, but standouts include Do Or Die, Take A Good Look, Graffiti Wall, World Gone Crazy and Before I Go.
I've seen him in concert 3 times, the last being 2008's Singapore Sun Festival.
All were extremely different gigs - lucky me! - and I was fortunate enough to meet him twice as well.
Both encounters were wonderful to say the least, and I hope to watch him perform again in the near future. Would be great to hear him sing these songs live.
Time for dinner. Thanks for reading!
