   About Astral22


-

Photobucket SONGWRITER / PRODUCER / RE-MIXER ARMAND TULUMELLO A.K.A ASTRAL22 (ASCAP) SOUL / R&B.

Latest news/Current Studio Projects: Astral22 Presents... IMPERIAL is complete and set for August 2009 release.

About the Release:

Los Angeles based producer Astral22 delivers a solid first ever compilation release titled “Astral22 Presents…IMPERIAL”. This spirited soulful "smooth", “feel good” production showcases Astral22’s various artist collaborations & re-works. This project features a quality line-up of hand picked emerging and established independent soul talent. The focus here is on the music, lyrical content, and this producer’s signature blend of jazzy funky melodic grooves. Expect an assortment of lush mid- tempo tracks, sophisticated dance floor shakers, and the overall deep mellow “grown folks” vibe this producer is becoming steadily known for.

My musical inspiration flows from listening to Rare Grooves, Classic Soul, Neo & Nu-Soul & Jazz, Bossa, Samba, Latin, World, Broken Beat, Hip Hop, Classical, etc... Anything that moves the spirit and has a positive vibe. Parlo Italiano, Hablo Español, & Falo Português Peace, ARMAND

Ha! Let me tell you..earlier today my niece, nephew & I were jammin' to the remix of Make Me Wanna Fly! ..and when I told my nephew it was the same guy who produced "Do You Wanna/Silent Prayer" he was sooo jazzed! (and he's 19 so thats sayin alot!)

Yes, The Rain has a "Dynasty" sample in it :-) That Dynasty song inspired me melodically when I wrote The Rain!

ASTRAL22!

WOW! I am so very proud of U & Ur accomplishments, especially so regarding tha' completion of Ur "Imperial" project!

Trk. #1. The Reason...sounds very "Summer" ready! As I am listening...I've noticed that U have managed to incorporate the best of that "East Coast" atmosphere/vibe, additonally injecting Us with all of tha' wonderful textures & spices that "L.A." brings to the recording table as well.

N' on a grander scope...although we've lost one of this industry's most prolific artist & composer's, I believe that a select "few" of us have been elected as the "GATEKEEPERS" of a certain quality brand music & artistry!

Armand, I feel U too are one of those gatekeepers. I've watch U over the years, really immerse Ur self into Ur artistry. I watched U hone Ur craft & here are the results!

Bravo! Keep doing us all proud!

I pray & wish U continued success & blessings in all of Ur pursuits & endeavors!

I love U 2 infinity & beyond!

Ur Boi...for real!

bZo!
