Esteemed Monsieur Diab(o)lo,

excuse me if I dare to disturb Your peaceful rest, comma, but I was wondering if You would be interested in answering five noble and (in the "best" DeBaserica tradition) simple questions about Your esteemed Band. What do you say (what do you) ? In short: you cannot but give Your (not silent) consent by responding to me immediately.

Monsieur Diablo: ""I’m in"

And so here They are: make good use of them!


One:
Primarily, as a good troublemaker, I was wondering whatever happened to the Alfa Romeo Giulia on the back cover of Your pleasant and desert debut disc; that is: this second "B"-titled work, to what (let's go) point would it be, and, above all, what the hell [with all due respect] should we music-expect ?

Mister Diablo: A few hours after finishing the photo session at the scrapyard, the Alfa Romeo in question became a metal cube with dimensions of 120x100x100 cm.

I no longer know how to define you "B". I can tell you it is finished and 36 hours ago I got hold of the final New York mastering. I believe there has been a significant quality leap both in the writing and arranging stages. It’s a more compact work than the first and the artistic profile of SikitikiS is more defined. And it plays, it plays loud. Damn, it plays loud!


Dos: What would be Your/bar/Your (surely significa*ant) opinion regarding the now abused practice of web-scavenging (also known as file sharing by harbor downloaders)? In other words: does an entity like Yours, in this precise musiko-historical-morphological phase, care about this or not ?

Herr Diablo: We find ourselves at the mouth of a river. It is not open sea, but it is not fresh water either. The barrel is half empty, but the wife is just tipsy. It is time to make a radical change in distribution methods.

We are fighting so that "B" can be downloaded at a low price as an alternative to traditional distribution. Then... we would like music to start again from live performances, for the relationship between music and its audience to become concrete again.


Quatre: and three? (Haven't You seen it?)[The three]

Senor Diablo
: Damn, I must have lost it.


Faiv: Finally, is there something from the current recentness (not exclusively muzaqale) that rather than throwing down the Battiatesque Tower You would do anything to lovingly rescue and spread as much as possible ?

Garçon Diablo: I would like to see a film adaptation of "Conan, the Boy of the Future". It's absurd that today's kids do not know the poetry of this story and the aesthetics of that imagery.


Faiv (Pt. 2): Conversely: what would You gladly and gracefully toss out the window ?

Junge Diablo: There are so many things I would like to throw down the tower. Lots…. but more than anything… Pop ringtones for cell phones with annoying kittens and frogs with serious psychological issues.

Faiv (Vol. 3): And now a classic: in the best (we might say) Marzullesca tradition, it would be appropriate for You to pose a question to Yourself and (in the unlikely event that You consider it worth answering) also give Yourself an answer.

Muchacho Diablo: What will the third SikitikiS album be like?

Mr Diablo: Beautiful. Very beautiful.

If You say so (Diabolical Mister Diablo) I trust a lot (indeed not).
