"Gianni Brezzo is the jazz affiliated band project led by Cologne-based producer, multi-instrumentalist and creative maestro Marvin Horsch. Gianni's diverse profile is reflected both in his scene-hopping as well as his music. Besides producing Cologne pop bands like Keshavara, Woman, and Xul Zolar, Gianni has released a number of EP and LP's since 2017, culminating most recently with Filigrani EP in 2023 on Jakarta. Gianni's new LP, Sprechiamo! is a meditation around Marvin's relationship with Italian culture accompanied by research into Italian music such as Napoli Exchange, the Periodica label or Giuliano Sorgini. Within the album Gianni was looking less for his roots and moreover for his existing Italian bonds and vivid cultural exchange in his current habitat of Cologne, which he is rediscovering time and again by wandering through his neighborhood Ehrenfeld, Cologne. The quarter hosting a vivid scene of Italians who came in the 1950s, such as Gianni's grandparents once did. Sprechiamo! is a timeless release, one that would sit just as well in 1979 as it does in 2025. Vivid Italian references from composers of the '60s/'70s to recent Peridoica, always mixed with a bit of Khrunagbin and Sven Wunder to give it Gianni's own touch. Jakarta Records is ecstatic to share such a high-water mark of an album."

"Cologne-based, multi-instrumentalist and creative jazz powerhouse Gianni Brezzo keeps the momentum with EP Filigrani, arriving via Berlin's Jakarta Records. Gianni Brezzo, the jazz affiliated band/studio project led by Cologne-based producer maestro Marvin Horsch, has a diverse musical profile that is reflected both in his genre-hopping as well as his creative output. Along with producing for Cologne bands like Keshavara, Woman, and Xul Zolar, Gianni has released a number of EP and LP's since 2017, including 2021's The Awakening which featured vocal appearances from Berlin/Tel Aviv based singer/producer J.Lamotta and soul singer Otis Junior from Louisville, Kentucky. Gianni Brezzo's new project, Filigrani is a testament to the continued sonic growth and experimentation that pushes the music to new heights. The tracks, meticulously crafted, were born live in the studio, capturing the raw energy and creativity of Brezzo's jazzdriven genius. Filigrani introduces a unique fusion, seamlessly blending jazz progressions with touches of ambient electronics. The single and LP artworks by the esteemed Jason Jagel (MF DOOM, Madlib, JJ Whitefield) provide the perfect accompaniment to Gianni's ever shifting grooves."
