Her name is Miss Ari
Who is Miss Ari? Will try to discover something about her.
Luke the new secret Transistors
agent speaks about her...
Luke: << Hei ErMan! We have a new singer "Ari"! >>
Erman: << Who is “Ari”? >>
Luke: << I'm very excited because "Ari" has a good
voice, a lovely smile and she loves..... Mina! >>
ErMan: << But...Mina is the most important singer we have ever
had in Italy. During sixties Mina worked with many important composers
like Piero Piccioni. And I love her jazz and bossa compositions released
during sixties, really groove and mood! >>
Luke:<< I don't know what the future holds for The Transistors
but we must start with a new recording project!!! >>
Erman: << Yes!!!! ...With Miss Ari!
>>
Kitchen! The next big thing!
Kitchen is a surprise! We believe
this song will be the next big thing of The Transistors!
Kitchen is a futuristic bossa with the delicious voice of Miss Ari
playing only in Italian (!).
The lirics, inspired by Erman and written by Ari, Luke and ErMan,
are a combination of serial killers inspired to Bret Easton Ellis
and to the atmosphere of Banana Yoshimoto!
Kitchen is a dynamite cocktail bossa sung by Miss Ari - the new serial
killer girl heroine of the new millenium!
Pat Detective and Bambini Records from Japan
Directly from Kioto one of the best surprises in Lounge music!

About The Transistors
Kazuo Yata: << Thanks a lot for The Transistors CD "Swinging
Italy". It is so great. My favourite are 'Viva Esquivell' and
'Stelle a Cinecitta'.
... Of course, I really like italian cine sounds by P. Piccioni, A.
Trovajoli, R. Ortolani, E. Morricone and P. Umiliani..etc La Decima
Vittima is one of the most favourite soundtrack, and Fumo di Londra
is too. ( I love the song 'Mr. donte fontana') So, I was surprised
that you covered 'You never...' on the cd.
... Your new mini CD sounds nice. I'm very interested in it and new
singer Miss Ari. I'm so happy if you'll send me the new cd!
... Anyway, I'm really interested in your music. I'm always looking
for great artists in the world who has close pop sense to me
... I'm planning next compilation in 2000, if Transistors track will
be on the record, it's fantastic!>>
About Frenesi!
Kazuo Yata: << Frenesi. She is a amazing japanes
girl, writing many good songs, singing and playing keybords. She is
a super girl who grew up with a lot of good music, soundtracks, screen
musics, brazil, french and italian pops. Her 8 tracks mini album and
7" single will be out from bambini very soon (in June).>>
