Contes first album was Jet Sounds in 2000. The single Bossa Per Due gained international recognition and was an underground hit. It was used almost immediately for a prime-time commercial for Acura automobiles. RITUALS is the third album by talented Italian musician Nicola Conti. Conti has garnered critical acclaim for his fusion of bossa nova, Latin rhythms, Italian soundtrack influences and jazz. This is a funky and enjoyable album which will delight fans and newcomers alike.
