Big Bang was the solo alias of London-based Italian producer Simone Serritella, who was also half of jazz-house duo Cuica. The Big Bang sound combined swinging Latin jazz rhythms with bright keyboard melodies and soulful vocals, and was often categorized as "broken beat" or "nu-jazz." Serritella's first single as Big Bang, "Dribbling"/"Colours," arrived on U.K. label <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Far+Out+Recordings%22">Far Out Recordings</a> in 2000. Early in 2001, Serritella founded the <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Arision%22">Arision</a> label, which released the majority of his subsequent recordings. Debut full-length Arriving Soon appeared in 2002, along with 12" singles "Higher" and "Pressure." The remix collection Rework Project followed in 2004, containing mixes by <a href="spotify:artist:1BlBZ9jQGOjmj6Zykgg43L">4hero</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1aStXP3F92SgdczG1gx1Mp">IG Culture</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:1qJhFa0HuwKkNvjKIxSs7W">Domu</a>. A pair of 2005 singles, "Smile in Your Eyes" and "Sweet y Sour," preceded second proper album Way in Jazz, which appeared in 2006 along with another remix collection, Essential Selection. No further Big Bang recordings emerged, and Serritella ended <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Arision%22">Arision</a> in 2011, subsequently relocating to New York City. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi
