This song was born as a strong need to get rid of a deep unhappiness. It all began in the summer of 2023 at the very top of a disastrous exam session, to say the least. Moreover, in those months I had been fired from the software-house I worked for and had been removed from a project in which I had put my heart and soul.
At that point there were only two paths to take: surrender or fight back. What would surrender have meant? Perhaps giving up studies and a life spent settle for what comes. What did it mean to react? You will find out by listening to this song.
Writing this song freed me from everything I put into it. Music is freedom because once you put those emotions down on paper and wrap them up properly, they no longer belong to you. They are part of the past and you are free to move on.
This song was produced entirely in my bedroom and not in a recording studio. It was all new to me, but it wasn't a problem to get involved. Anyway, you don't need much: a sound card, an acoustic guitar, an electric guitar, a ukubass (a bass guitar shaped like a ukulele, with nylon strings), a microphone, a dog barking when you're recording, a slightly out-of-tune piano, and a lot of motivation to experiment. Finally, I would like to thank Elettra, whose voice thrilled me from the very first moment. This project is also due to her, who was able to perfectly interpret what I had in my head.
That's it! I hope you enjoy the song and I hope it is for me, the first of many!
