Calibro 35 is an Italian funk band that has been steadily gaining popularity since the late 2000s.

Their style is known as cinematic funk, and as the name suggests, they excel at creating funk with a film-like atmosphere.

One album of theirs I highly recommend is Traditori di Tutti.

There’s a detective novel of the same name set in Milan by Giorgio Scerbanenco, and this work draws inspiration from that book.

It’s full of dramatic, movie-like jazz-funk, so be sure to check it out.

Caravan, a seminal figure in Canterbury rock that originated from The Wilde Flowers, is known for a crossover sound that fuses jazz and rock, centered on beautiful melodies and rich lyricism.

Their 1971 release In the Land of Grey and Pink is regarded as their signature work.

With the title track’s dreamy, catchy melody and the 22-minute epic Nine Feet Underground, it is highly acclaimed as a classic of progressive rock.

Showcasing complex song structures and advanced musicianship, this album is recommended not only for progressive rock fans but also for anyone who enjoys lyrical, expressive music.

Goodbye to LoveCarpenters

“Goodbye to Love” is a classic by the Carpenters that sets the pain of heartbreak to a beautiful melody.

Karen’s translucent voice poignantly conveys the sorrow of lost love.

Released in June 1972, the song reached No.

7 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Notably, it features a bold arrangement that incorporates a fuzz-guitar solo into a ballad—a forward-leaning choice that was divisive at the time.

It has continued to be cherished by many as a song that comforts those trying to recover from the wounds of a broken heart.

This is a track by Cassia, a UK band that plays Calypso-tinged indie pop.

It’s a single from their February 2024 EP “Home Soon…,” characterized by bright, bouncing acoustic guitars and a playful bass groove.

The lyrics are memorable for reminding us of the positive side of facing change, and the danceable feel evokes the arrival of spring.

It earned BBC Radio 1’s “Hottest Record” title and has received strong critical acclaim, including an appearance at Mexico’s Corona Capital festival.

It’s a perfect song for anyone looking to find a new version of themselves or standing at a turning point in life.

Goodbye Pork Pie HatCharles Mingus

This piece, included on the jazz landmark album “Mingus Ah Um,” is a composition Charles Mingus created in 1959.

Written as a tribute to saxophonist Lester Young, the song has come to be widely recognized as a jazz standard.

Through Mingus’s bass playing and his ensemble arrangements, it pays respect to Young’s life and legacy.

The track opens with a delicate piano introduction by Horace Parlan, and saxophone solos by John Handy and Booker Ervin add emotional weight.

This instrumental, expressing deep sorrow and a sense of loss, has captured the hearts of many jazz fans.

As a pivotal work in the evolution of jazz, it stands as proof of music’s power to capture the essence of humanity.

Chic – Good Times (1978)

I want to go out and have fun in the summer, but I just can’t get motivated.

In times like that, I recommend the song “Good Times.” As the title suggests, it carries a positive message: if we’re doing this, let’s make it a good time.

It’s performed by the American band Chic.

These days they go by Nile Rodgers & Chic, so some of you might know them by that name.

In fact, “Good Times” is also one of the most sampled tracks in hip-hop.
