After the outstanding performance in Italy (Rome) at the former slaughterhouse in Testaccio for the Ford Fusion Event, and after charming the thousands of guests with her rhythm, voice and sensuality, Regina Rogers announces a return to the scene with a new and ambitious music project.
Pop, dance and soul are the three keywords which aptly describe the versatility of this artist.
The project, named "Soul Solution" and produced by Tony Massarutto for T.M.O. Productions and EMERGENCY MUSIC ITALY, has been created between Italy and the U.S. In contrast to her previous releases, which were predominately dance, this last work shows a much more mature Regina Rogers, and proposes a high-quality pop product that is rich in a variety of contemporary sounds, including black, house and electro.
All the lyrics have been written by herself, as is some of the music, including the song "Soul Solution".
The crowning of her return to the music scene, the track "Angel Love", taken from her new project, has been included in two important compilations, "DANCE NEWS NR. 8, HIT MANIA" and "EURO DANCE NR.14". The vinyl single "Soul Solution" also contains the track "Stay", which was written and co-produced by Enrico Zardini. Two videos have also been recorded for these two tracks, both of which were filmed in Madonna's former Miami villa and directed by Giacomo De Simone.
