Clap! Clap! is the project by Italian producer Cristiano Crisci, focused on researching and sampling tribes, bands, and singers from the African continent. His strong personality shines through his eclectic and percussive work with samples. Using drum machines and synths, he reproduces classic African rhythms in a contemporary way. The keywords of this experience are 'future roots' and 'future rhythm.' Clap! Clap! aims to create a continuous dance that is febrile, tribal, hyper-kinetic yet balanced by elegance and essentiality.

Italian producer Clap! Clap! returns to Bristol's Black Acre with his third album, Liquid Portraits. Clap! Clap!’s third album once again deploys his inimitable technique in fine style, however with new eyes as this new project signifies a definite shift in his work having spent the last few years learning the art of mixing which has lead to some breakthroughs. Entitled Liquid Portraits, the album - as the name suggests - is a collection of sonic paintings, an attempt at capturing furtive, subconscious memories through sound. The tracks reference trips Crisci took and people he met – from southern Italy to Hokkaido via the Kif Mountains of Morocco – as well as more abstract ideas of loss, calmness, and childhood. Having been approached by Paul Simon to work on his 2016 album Stranger To Stranger after Simon discovered Tayi Bebba through his son, Clap! Clap! is no stranger to collaborations and this album features a small cast of talents, such as south Italy percussionist Domenico Candellori (Southern Dub), Belgian artist Martha Da’ro (Moving On) and harpist Kety Fusco (Rising Fire).
