Songs which let their sophisticated construction slide onto the rails of the most hypnotic and mysterious rhythm that exists. A few light and measured mambo steps which resonate, perhaps in a Paris of the soul, suspended in an undefined stylistic moment.

Electric guitars, accordions, percussion. Instruments sprinkled with care like flavours on top of a dish. A 'vertical' orchestra, a result of the clever additions contrived by Enrico Terragnoli and, at the peak, the seductive voice of Claudia Bidoli which depicts the most private panoramas of the soul. The precious spices used in the recording are no other than some of the most personal and creative musicians on the new Italian scene.

Giorgio Signoretti
