Nicola Conte is an Italian DJ and producer known for introducing an
innovative style of acid jazz that incorporates bossa nova themes,
melodies drawn from Italian film scores of the 1960's, easy listening
themes, and ethnic Indian music.
Conte, a classically-trained musician, is mastermind of a collective of
acid jazz revivalists, "The Fez collective," based in the Italian town of
Bari, and the Schema label, their record label for promoting their
distinctly Italian approach to acid jazz.
Conte's first album was Jet Sounds of 2000. The single "Bossa Per Due"
gained international recognition and was an underground hit. It was used
almost immediately for a prime-time commercial for Acura automobiles. The
album was licensed for American distribution by Thievery Corporation's
Eighteenth Street Lounge (ESL) label in the summer of 2001 as Bossa Per
Due, and was slightly reconfigured version of the Italian Jet Sounds
album. This
