As part of the generation who witnessed the ascent of Trip Hop (and liked it a lot) I wouldn’t have missed Morcheeba, I was super excited when I read of their show here in Milan at Carroponte.

Spoiler: I had high expectations that weren’t disappointed.

When F & I arrived at Carroponte there were really few people: that from one side made me think what a shame for younger generations not to be exposed at (what I consider) great music but from the other side I was happy to join a somewhat intimate concert.

More people arrived and then Morcheeba arrived at 22:10 with the ever-beautiful and seductive Skye: her velvet-y voice plus the calm of her movements on the stage plus some great music really made a fantastic show.

The people who went to watch was basically adults, 40+ I would certainly say, really a missed opportunity for youngsters to enjoy and be inspired by the amazing sounds from the whole band and especially from the guitar of Ross Godfrey.

Here’s the tracklist:

• The Sea
• Friction
• Otherwise
• Never an Easy Way
• Enjoy the Ride
• Oh Oh Yeah
• Trigger Hippie
• Get Along
• Blood Like Lemonade
• The Moon (Irena Žilić cover)
• Let Me See
• Rome Wasn’t Built in a Day
• Summertime (George Gershwin cover)
• Blindfold
