Title Praxis Makes Perfect
Label LEX
Neon Neon (Gruff Rhys & Boom Bip) present their new album, Praxis Makes Perfect, the follow up to 2008’s Mercury Music Prize nominated Stainless Style.
Praxis Makes Perfect is a musical biopic of Italian Publisher, Giangiacomo Feltrinelli’s colourful life viewed through the lens of Gruff Rhys’ highly original sound writing and Boom Bip’s shimmering synth-heavy production.
Guests on this album include two previous Neon Neon co-conspirators in Josh Klinghoffer of Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Cardiff’s Cate Le Bon, plus Italian pop sensation Sabrina Salerno and actress Asia Argento.  Salerno – best known for her multi-million selling 80s anthem Boys (Summertime Love) – duets with Rhys on Shopping (I Like To).  Argento’s various vocal contributions include a reading from Carlo Feltrinelli’s Senior Service biography of his father – the book that
provided the initial inspiration for Praxis Makes Perfect – on poignant curtain closer Ciao Feltrinelli.
