The album, titled Il Grande Ritorno, is set for release on Slaaploos on 8 November.
Pizza Noise Mafia are a Brussels-based electronic duo and SHAPE+ Platform 25/26 artists, made up of Matthieu Levet and Thibault Gondard. Operating under the profile of funky minimal 6-step, the duo ause only a drum machine and a synthesiser to make rhythmic, stripped-back, groove-driven productions.
On 8 November, Pizza Noise Mafia are set to release their new album Il Grande Ritorno. The album will mark 10 years since the duo’s debut album i canti della malavita, released on Belgian record label Slaaploos in 2014. Since then, the duo has built a relentless live reputation, implementing a minimalist setup that has been proven at iconic venues and festivals across France and Belgium, as well as illegal basement raves.
Il Grande Ritorno is described as “the result of ten years of all-out research in the field of dance music”. Rooted in Belgian and Brussels tradition, the album blends a variety of dance music genres from trance, EBM, hardcore, electro, and acid to create a sound that is uniquely theirs.
Before the release of the album, the duo will be performing multiple shows across France, including Virieu-le-Grand (27 September), Genève (28 September), Grenoble (30 September), and Marseille (4 October).
Alongside French producer Heimat, they will also perform at various listening parties in Liège (6 November), Gent (7 November), Brussels (8 November), and Montreuil (4 December).
