Enzo Minuti

While still unknown to many today, Enzo Minuti (1927-2000), aka Ezy Minus, left his unique mark on the kaleidoscopic world of Italian library music. One of the most versatile, skilled and authentic figures in the Bolognese music scene of the mid- to late 20th century, Minuti was a multi-instrumentalist, composer, music producer and recording studio manager.

His first library compositions are cheerful pop-jazz pieces veering towards either easy listening or a more psychedelic style, while later on he increasingly used electronic instruments, but still preferring simple musical structures, terse arrangements, and delicate and linear melodies. His evocative, dream-like music offers an immediate, synthetic representation of an emotion, a situation, or a landscape, and fires up our imagination with visions at once so simple and clear that they remain impressed in our memory.
