Bass guitar and keyboard player Gino Foti is a world fusion musician on Net Dot Music, an independent record label specializing in instrumental fusion: all-instrumental music that blends several styles and genres.

His music explores the relationships between diverse musical traditions, and the dichotomy of rhythm and melody of the bass guitar, by integrating ethnic sonorities into his jazz-rock palette. If you are an avid listener of jazz fusion, world music, prog rock, or related instrumental music hybrids like: world jazz, world beat, and ethnic fusion - even European classical and new age - you will probably connect with the music in his catalog.

Gino is also the co-founder of Electrum, an instrumental progressive rock power trio whose mission is to create a unique brand of eclectic compositions that stimulate the listener emotionally, while challenging the performers technically. Their music features rhythmic ensemble interplay, complex arrangements, and a thorough exploration of odd time signatures.
