“The Flop” is an album that defies its name. Far from a failure, it’s a brilliant revolution inspired by high jumper Dick Fosbury. Fosbury’s bold departure from old techniques to create his own method is Strizzi’s guiding principle. The album becomes Strizzi’s “Fosbury Flop,” allowing him to play with himself and build complex, multi-layered rhythms. It is a rhythmic journey where instruments are freed from rigid roles, creating a unique soundscape that redefines Latin American grooves and modern jazz.
