PRESS RELEASE
=============
Come and take a trip to Sicily in the 1970s with Roman Angelos. Inspired by the likes of Ennio Morricone, Piero Piccioni, and Bruno Nicolai, the music of Roman Angelos evokes vintage Italian cinema alongside the grimy streets of Palermo. The title track of Roman’s newest single, "Italian Soda", serves up twangy surf guitars against bossa nova beats and operatic singing. The single’s B-Side, "Shocked In Sciacca”, is a gnarly funk number, calling to mind mustachioed detectives chasing a criminal through nighttime backstreets and alleys.

Roman Angelos is the nom de plume of Brooklyn-based producer, composer, and multi-instrumentalist Rich Bennett. The project of Roman Angelos was invented as a vehicle for Rich to explore his obsession with exotica, film scores and library recordings of the 60's and 70s.  His debut album ‘Spacetronica Lunchbox’ made fans of Electronic Sound, Shindig!, Cerys Matthews and Stuart Maconie on BBC 6 Music among others.

Among his many talents Rich has worked as producer with many Happy Robots artists including SINOSA, ALICE HUBBLE, RODNEY CROMWELL and Morgane Lhote (ex-STEREOLAB)'s project HOLOGRAM TEEN. Beyond the world of library electronica, Rich has been involved in a diverse group of musical projects, including the newly reunited outsider/60s proto-punk group THE SHAGGS, dream-pop band MAHOGANY and Brazilian funk group LIMONCELLO.
