“Canta il Cuore della Sud
Dai SampDoria Vinci Tu
Sale il Coro fin Lassù
Nel Cielo Blu Cerchiato di Blu”
This song is dedicated to the team of my heart, Sampdoria, the Eternal Girl of ’46 with those magical colors that give us shivers and to the Blucerchiati supporters that always incessantly sustain and blaze wherever the game is played.

One of the things I like most about music is the possibility of modifying, transforming and reworking every single idea into a new development. The introduction can be revised, a new solo can be performed, the speed and tempo can be changed, we can safely say that the variations are incalculable because there is no limit to the imagination and therefore it will then depend on the ability of the composers as well as the arrangers and musicians to develop an increasingly interesting track. Sometimes I wonder if geniuses like Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci have ever passed for the head of making two versions of a painting, Caravaggio for example repainted his paintings when he was not satisfied and it was possible to discover this centuries later through the analysis of his works with sophisticated tools. Personally I love creating multiple versions of a piece and also remixes are a form that I adore, it’s like giving a story more possibilities to begin, develop and reach its conclusion, always having many open doors and places without borders communicating with each other where you can wander freely. Gold Remix is a collection of stories that you can listen to, of my audio stories that you could in turn revisit and travel again and again without stopping because the beauty of a journey is also the possibility of uniting two distant places. Enjoy

The musical journey continues in this second volume made up of tracks with very dilated tempos, where rhythms and drums are practically absent and there are no scansions that determine the trend but rather the sound research and exploration continues with the intention of be in resonance with the vibrations, float with the waves and go with the flow.
I believe that there is not a center of the universe and not even a point on which it rests, there is the possibility of moving and there is endless space, one can continue to explore, experiment and create, and I am not looking for a point of arrival, why should I be content to stop when I can always discover something new?
This is the second volume where the ideas that I began to develop in the previous one continue, I hope you can appreciate what I have chosen to create and share with you this time.

All You Can Beat is not intended to be an adaptation of the famous phrase all you can eat or even a slogan, rather it is an invitation to be carried away by the rhythm, feel the vibrations of the bass drum and bass that rise from the floor into the foot to rise up and pervade the body, letting go and following that irrepressible flow that makes us move, sway, spin and jump, the impulse to move synchronized together in that collective ritual that we can call rave party, disco, dancehall, chiringuito, wherever the notes can make us fly ecstatic, free from thoughts and afflictions, it is every gathering or meeting where all differences are canceled out and finally we are all equal, without distinction.
All You Can Beat simply wants to be the spontaneous Joy to which any of us aspires, the Happiness which is very more than our right, it is our nature.
We dance and rejoice, in completely free bodies and minds.
Chiaroscuro is a project that arises from the desire to combine two musical genres which, despite being very distant, share a fundamental characteristic: the “need” to continue to rework a musical idea by improvising on some given matrix.
Starting from this idea of ”Variations on the Theme” and taking a cue from the Renaissance painting technique characterized by the fusion of great contrasts, we thought of creating an encounter-clash of different intentions: acoustic and electronic, written parts alternating with impromptu improvisations, all seasoned with extreme dynamic excursions.
If in painting, as with sculpture and videos, one expresses oneself visually with immediacy, music needs to describe, sounds create atmospheres that will make us have precise sensations and moods, what we witnessed in the Renaissance period is been the flourishing of art and culture to overcome previous dark historical periods and above all to bring more beauty into the existence of human beings, achieving something with the motivation to benefit is the highest point attainable
The masterpieces created by the great masters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, the studies of Galileo Galilei, the works that many of these geniuses have done are a clear example of how important it is to bring beauty into our lives, it becomes nourishment for our minds. and it can be an inspiration for many, we just starting from the Renaissance and its creative force with this motivation we started composing songs to get to find a balance between the atmospheres we had in mind, a whispered beginning that becomes a spring explosion and then lightly praises other verses, overcoming the dichotomous vision to grasp the essence that pervades every phenomenon, being able to have a constant flow where the melody and the solos are like dialectics and debates that harmonize in a constructive dialogue.
Using the words would have been easier to describe but we preferred to concentrate on researching and experimenting with new sounds in the very fertile jazz and giving more life to the versatile electronic music, since everything changes in every moment it is important to be constant change that adapts itself without disregarding your own. origins.
We have dedicated a passage to our hometown, Milan which 500 years ago was one of the cradles of the Renaissance; a place where so much beauty can be built, lived and shared with anyone.
We express our deep gratitude to the genius of Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis who, like the alchemists of the 1500s, explored new paths in music that no one even imagined, stimulating us to seek our new way: your listening will tell if we have succeeded.

This record has its roots in the groove of the 60s when jazz inspired the desire to revolutionize the world and a new musical mood was born to be the soundtrack that would accompany those desires for change, in addition to the intellectual and theoretical part there was also and above all that push from below of people who wanted to be able to choose how to live, intending to ensure that equality and equanimity were the fundamental values of the human community.
This new musical mood was the desire to experiment other ways even in unconventional ways and great African American musicians took part, among which it is important to mention Stanely Turrentine, Grant Green, Reuben Wilson, Lou Donaldson, John Patton, they were the forerunners of what in the years to come it became hip hop (looping a short musical phrase) and acid jazz.
It was and listening to it is still a joyful music, which could be playful and at other times very sensual, where the musicians played using the jazz interplay starting from a theme and developing it through solos and then returning all together to celebrate the theme, music by crystalline beauty and quality
What I tried to do, bringing that mood to the present day, was to compare it with the current times, add some electronic sounds and bring the synths as new instruments that have a lot to say in terms of expressiveness, in addition to the drums I have inserted. of the samples, the rhythm that accompanies and supports these songs moves between swing, big band and hip hop, the melodies are immediate like a shot arrow that goes straight to the center and I deliberately unleashed the imagination to draw enveloping spirals, now I wish you could enjoy this embrace.

In the continuous research and musical experimentation we sooner or later experienced that feeling of thinking about where we had arrived and what other characteristics we wanted to use to connote our style, if we were happy with what we had done and what we could develop to finally reach that sense of fullness. and contentment that seems so difficult to obtain.
There could be more answers, answers in relation to various factors such as time, our life, aspirations and the same answers could change over time …….
Being able to understand the unique and unrepeatable essence of every moment could be something that goes beyond any answer.

Whatever direction we want to take, motivation is first of all important and then where we want to go.
With the motivation we give ourselves an answer, an answer that will make us happy to have made a precise choice so we can savor every moment of the journey until the end, which in any case subsequently becomes a new beginning. the journey, or being already in a group and becoming more numerous, what a journey allows you to do is still know and know each other, an interior path where our still unknown sides could emerge and that will make us grow. and share, music can be a tool that allows us to alleviate suffering or to rejoice together, it can unite rather than divide and united it is much stronger in overcoming adversity. others walk,
I thank those who open new paths to discover new ways to reach the goals, I do it condi seeing these simple passages of mine with you

In the last decades until today there has been a flourishing of relaxing music and to meditate, since we started talking about the new age we are looking for something that can lead us to deeper and transcendental states of consciousness, we listened in the course of the centuries chants and recitations (for example the Mantras) that act on a subtle level but we think that music can also lead us to realize different cognitive abilities.
It must be borne in mind that music can certainly stimulate different sensations but when it comes to music to meditate here it is a colossal deception, the Indian Masters have been saying for many centuries that for the meditator the sound is like a thorn and therefore must be avoided. who meditates does it in places where there are no noises and disturbances so it is not possible that there is suitable music because it would cause distraction to the conscience.
I think it is right to explain it because this collection of songs is aimed at relaxing, if possible, to calm suffering and tension and is in no way music to meditate.
Music in the absence of obstruction is not a simple title, there is a word in the Tibetan language and it is “Namkha” which translated means space, but it is not about space as we westerners understand it but more precisely indicates “absence of obstruction” so it is a possibility to move anywhere and cannot be contained, clouds, planes and birds, everything can move because there is no obstruction so I thought of playing without obstacles with the ability to go anywhere.
Another element that I have taken into account is time, drums, drums and percussion are deliberately practically absent because I wanted to make sure that this music could express the blossoming of a flower, the change of clouds in the sky and the wind that sings. together with the mountains, the sounds are able to give the cadence without the need to perceive the beat that beats.
Conventionally in a journey we have a departure, moving and arrival and there are those who believe that the journey is more important than the destination, who can listen to these songs and make you go anywhere, freely and without obstructions.

When I started playing I had in mind to make unique music, which was not reproducible by other musicians due to its difficulty and complexity but listening well to what others were doing I realized that human beings in addition to knowing how to emulate could also improve what they had done heard.
I accepted this a little at a time but it was a great benefit because I began to collaborate with other people and this allowed me to learn many things, whatever the musical genre we do it is important to be able to clearly express what we are, to be not only performers but be part of that musical flow and be those vibrations.
This album that I have titled 21 is a tribute to those who inspire me every day, what I try to transmit is simplifying what is complicated, the first experiments of creative connections without limits of musical genre
