THE REVIEW

"December" is the opening track of an album for dreamers: a keyboard buried in the snow accompanies an introduction that smells of Hawaii, and a vinyl voice begins telling us stories of relationships, boredom, and everyday life. "Rust" is melancholic and at the same time lively; keyboards, toys, and various crafts bloom within it.

In this album, there is room for the mini blues of "Baricentro", created with a game of rhythms that come and go, and nursery rhyme-like songs such as "Salame & caffè" and "I matti", a chant to take under your arm and where you can find yourself. Melancholy, though carefree, is experienced in the Romagna countryside at sunset, wearing an old-fashioned bathing suit and a floral necklace; it's here that "Yesterday" bursts into an exciting finale, and the little choir at the end of "Capisco poco" takes you sitting on a hay bale at the setting sun. In this last song, the acoustic guitar becomes intimate, as it does in "Io chi sono". There's also space for the country pop introduced by "Dust", which becomes galloping with "Bones", in an alternation of melancholic-lively rhythms. It all ends with "Casiotone", a sweet instrumental accompanied by the repetitive ticking reminiscent of the Pong simulation game.

I matti fan così...
