  • Bio

    The RedZen is a project born in 2009 in Italy under the sign of Roberto Leoni, Ettore Salati, Marco Schembri and Angelo Racz, and devoted to instrumental progressive fusion music. The band members are well-known musician in the prog-fusion world, and they finally met together after having shared different projects which led them to play in world-distributed prog releases and perform live in whole Europe, U.S., South America, Japan. After a couple of jam-sessions as a trio, keyboard virtuoso Angelo joined the line-up and the band was ready. Some months later, Marco decided to leave the project and Nicola Della Pepa brought his bass lines into the sound. The keyword is "JAM LIKE HELL!", and everything is born under the sign of each guy. Almost immediately some surprising tunes came to life, and the production of a release started. Even though The RedZen are a brand-new band, they already performed live. The show displays great musicianship, developed by Leoni's devilish rhythmics, Della Pepa's roaring basses, Salati's grinding riffs and Racz's jazzish virtuosity. Versatility and improvisation drive a "take no prisoners" live schedule. The very first tune released has been "Alexa In The Cage", a special edition featuring vocals by guest singer Joe Sal, which will be included in "Dante's Paradiso" compilation by Colossus/Musea, published in Fall 2010. And on January 2011, the first full-length album "Void" is released for Ma.Ra.Cash Records with worldwide distribution. Some artists The RedZen are influenced by: Return to Forever, Ozric Tentacles, Weather Report, Pink Floyd, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Yellowjackets, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Genesis, Planet X, Tribal Tech, King Crimson, OSI, Colosseum and many others. So the original compositions cross the border from power fusion to prog rock, adding a touch of jazz and psychedelia!

    Where are my friends Gone? It appears that My space has lost its appeal, everyone is Facebook and Twitter, We are coming to Milan in 2012, would love to know how you are going? The Hope has been put on the backburner, with the success of UNITOPIA'S recent tour and prolific sales. However we have written 11 out of the 22 songs selected and will happen soon. hope to catch you soon
    Love Truey

    Hey,

    Thanks for the connection !


    Tell me when are these times that I have dreams about
    Are they mere memories of better days gone by
    Unsubstantial fancies fated to fade away
    Or horizons waiting to be arisen to ?

    And the fire I felt when this hope was brand new
    When not even Everest could have kept me from you
    Has it burned its brightest or just given a hint
    Does it smolder for chance or consume its last fuel ?

    And the bridge you promised would serve as my footing
    Had I strayed from the path or was my step unsure
    Perchance that fall was meant to complete my healing
    So I'd see for myself what my strength could endure ?

    Weren't you the blue bird that had awaken me
    As I laid in the cold suffering of torment
    Sung me out of starving, loathing and lethargy
    Invited me to rise and resume my ascent ?

    As I now look forward to more of your magic
    Contemplating what so far had kept me bemused
    Just ahead are the times I have dreamt ecstatic
    I see the horizons and I am reinfused


    Best wishes,
    Chris
