MMM Recipe – Rockin’ 1000 in the same pot

Here we go again with a new MMM recipe, and this time we are back talking about Foo Fighters and an amazing event organized in Cesena, Italy called Rockin’ 1000. The creator of the idea is Fabio Zaffagnini, who had an awesome spark of insanity bringing together 1000 rockers who love Foo Fighters and let them play “Learn to Fly” all in the same place.

The project started on May 2014 and they were finally able to play all together and publish an incredible video on July 30th, 2015; as Fabio would say “I’ve been working on this fu**ing project for more than one year…” But it seems like it worked, since they got an immediate answer from Dave Grohl himself.

The video is freaking unbelievable and absurd. While watching it my face was trembling from how excited as I got. And thinking that all they did was intended to unite people through the power of music and being able to do something incredible from scratch.

In a few days, the initiative went viral and the video got 23 millions views. The purpose of this initiative was to convince the band to play again in Cesena, after many years of absence and of course, Dave Grohl was very nice to please the crowd posting a video in which, speaking in Italian, he said that Foo Fighters would be very happy to play in Cesena very soon.

On August 16th, the rocking’ 1000 team got very lucky as they got the opportunity to meet the band in person at the Walla Walla Festival in USA. Many compliments to Mr. Zaffagnini for the dedication put into this huge initiative.
Without further ado, please take a look at this passionate and inspiring video.

MMM RECIPE – FOO FIGHTERS AND THE SONIC HIGHWAYS OF AMERICAN DELICACIES

It’s getting cold outside, time for a hot soup like you’ve never seen before. This tasty delicacy is a mixture of Alternative/Hard Rock and post-grunge and it’s dedicated to the awesome band Foo Fighters.

On the 20^th anniversary of its music career, the band is still able to innovate with fresh ideas and create new remarkable songs. In 2013, Grohl stated that the band was making a new album, like no one’s ever seen before. He was pretty excited about it and he also declared “…next year is going to be a really big year for the Foo Fighters, without question”. Now that the veil has been lifted we’re happy to confirm this acclaimed musical event soon to be released, called “Sonic Highways”.

This is not just another studio album like the prior seven the band has made in the past twenty years. This is a masterpiece, mixing together passion, history and lifelong dreams about music. American Music. Soul Music. Real Music.

The band is honoured to announce an epic masterwork, the outcome of an in-depth research on the history of music. They didn’t just write down some lyrics and then some tunes to go along with. They interviewed real musicians, which are the product of years and years of music evolution, and then composed the best songs that could honour their words and stories.

You might be wondering what’s the best part about it? Well, Dave Grohl also directed a TV series entitled “Sonic Highways”, about the whole journey the band took during this experience. Eight episodes about the eight cities expedition, with the purpose of bringing out the best album in the Foo Fighters history.

The album was released on November 10^th, so we don’t have to wait anymore for this magnificent publication. As for now, you can take a sneak peek at the TV series premiere, that along with several interviews of the band, is generating a huge buzz around the new album and the Foo Fighters in general. They’re really surfing the innovation wave and they demonstrate to have more and more to offer to their fans.

MMM Soup of the week – Royal Blood and dark chocolate

For this week, we have prepared a spicy soup with a bit of fresh garage rock, a side of grunge and a pinch of hard rock and blues rock. Here we present Royal Blood.

This young duo, formed in the UK two years ago, has brought since then an innovative and new sound all around them.

Only two guys playing bass and drums but they surely rock!! It’s a simple recipe but full of flavors.

In 2013 the band released their first single “Out of the Black” and in 2014 they supported Arctic Monkeys in a couple of their shows.
A few months ago we had the opportunity to taste another bite with the new single “Little Monster” and in a couple more weeks (August 25th) we’ll be able to satisfy our hunger when the album “Royal Blood” will be released.

For the moment we at Music Marketing Minestroni would like for you to try this awesome duo with the video of their first single “Out of the Black”.
