RIP (requiescat in pace), is a duo from France, with Christophe Panzani on saxophones and JulienRégnier on baryton guitar. They're friends for a long time, and have worked together in several bands,in very different styles (rock, songs, jazz...), but last year, they decided to record a first opus ofinstrumental music mixing their own universes. You will hear some melodic and quiet tunes, composed byboth of them.
"Christophe is a long experienced saxophone player. What a surprise when you play with this guy, isthat no matter the music you make, you hear some "Panzani" ! He has done lots of gigs all around theworld with some famous musicians (Carla Bley, Andy Sheppard, Steve Swallow...), and in my opinion, eachtime, he has taken the best of those moments... and I can hear all these things when we share our timein music (or around a bottle of wine)..."
Julien
"Julien is one of the most complet musician i know, he can sing, play the guitars (some very weirdguitars he makes himself!! yes it's true!), so, make guitars, compose beautiful songs and lyrics (withl'Apostolo...), cook wonderful food, mix and record music.... too much to be said... And even if hereally likes,hum... love country music, and rock music, we still can make music together! Maybe becausethe thing he loves more, is the bottle of wine he told about... He escaped himself from a deep trapwhen he won a competition leaded by Steve Vaï, and ran away right after with the price (a guitar hebrokes some days after)... and decided to sing french songs..."
