Trip Hill to Release Ain’t Trip Ceremony Oct. 29 on Bad Afro; “Dropside” Single Out Sept. 24
Buzzing and hypnotic, the first single from Trip Hill‘s forthcoming LP, Ain’t Trip Ceremony — say it out loud kind of quickly, to reveal the wordplay — is short at three minutes long, but bodes well just the same. I don’t think there are words in “Dropside” other than the title, but that’s all Florence’s Fabrizio Cecchi needs to get the point across from his long-running solo outfit. Ain’t Trip Ceremony was originally self-released late last year as a limited CDR, but Bad Afro Records has picked up the outing for an LP edition due out Oct. 29, and “Dropside” will precede the vinyl on Sept. 24.
If you want to do a headfirst dive in the interim, Trip Hill‘s Bandcamp page is like a coral reef for the many different colors it offers. Earlier this year, Cecchi re-released the 2000 compilation Takes From Oblivion from ’90s-era demo recordings, and you’ll find that, the 2019 LP Psych Wedding, and the new single all streaming below, because I guess I got excited about a thing. Bad Afro doesn’t sign non-Uffe Lorenzen-related bands every day, you know. Gotta figure this is going to be right on.
PR wire info follows:
Trip Hill – “Dropside” single out September 24th
Trip Hill is a one-man operation by Fabrizio Cecchi out of Florence, Italy. With a naïve approach to making music and inspiration from all over the world he is making his own homemade and original version of trippy psychedelia and krautrock. “Dropside” is the first single from the Ain’t Trip Ceremony album due out October 29th on Bad Afro Records.
Fabrizio Cecchi played in various garage and psych rock bands in the early 90’s but by 1994 he set his own cause and started to work alone and in his own universe. Originally a bass-player he since taught himself guitar, drums, keyboards and various other instruments to be able to find his own way in making psychedelic music.
Ain’t Trip Ceremony is the latest output in a long string of experimental home productions recorded in his basement studio. Until recently it was only available on his bandcamp and as a very cool limited edition CD-R with covers printed on thick cardboard with a special linograph technique. But now it gets the proper release on vinyl via Bad Afro Records that these recordings deserve. 1st print is limited to 500 copies on black vinyl.
