After months on the road supporting The Revolution of Evolution, with shows across Asia, the US, and Europe, we are now closing the first part of the tour with a final date in Belgium at Six K Fest alongside amazing bands and musicians.
The response to the album has been absolutely overwhelming in the best possible way. Fans and critics embraced The Revolution of Evolution far beyond my expectations, and seeing all the support has been incredibly rewarding after all the hard work.
The video for Undercurrent also surpassed 50,000 views an unexpected milestone for a niche artist like me while my Spotify numbers finally reached the level I always hoped for.
A huge thank you to the musicians who joined me on this tour: Laurent Bernadac, Yohan Delasalle, Cello Azul, Eric Nalin, and Alessandro Cacace.
Now, it's time to slow down a bit on live gigs and focus on writing the next chapter of my prog metal journey: album number seven in my solo discography.
On the Inspiria Guitars side, we continue to grow with updated guitar models, the LP4 2.0, a new five-string bass, and fresh string packs. Check them out at InspiriaGuitars.com.
I'll also release upgraded versions of SL8: a studio edition and a live edition from the Alexandrian Metal Assault in Italy last May.
Thank you all for your support. Stay tuned for more music, gear, and updates, and follow me on social media for regular content!
About the Album This 10-track instrumental prog metal opus represents three years of intensive creative work and marks my most complete musical statement to date. Every instrument has been performed and produced by myself, with guest appearances by Jay Parmar on "Pulse" and "Magnolia Ave" (solos 2 and 4). The stunning cover artwork is created by Mark Bridgeman.
The Title's Meaning The title completes a full circle that began with my first EP "Evolution" in 2008 - this album represents the final chapter of that 17-year artistic journey. Beyond personal evolution, the title also addresses contemporary social themes: the unnecessary and potentially risky overuse of AI, cyber media, and information overload in our modern world.
First Single: "Undercurrent" The album opens with "Undercurrent", a powerful metaphor for events unfolding in the shadow of seemingly larger occurrences. Written in 2020, the song reflects on significant historical events of our current century.
Press Coverage The album has already received attention from music press, with the first review published by Elevar Magazine. Read the review.
Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the release date.

Good morning Folks.
Sorry for the lackness of updates here, however if you follow me on the social media you are very good updated about my music "journey". Long story short.
I have been to China twice last winter and the US (Namm) and Germany (Guitar Summit).
As some of you might know I am working on my new solo album. I've just released the single "Elan Vital". Listen on all the Music Streaming Services and check out the official videoclip.
The new album will be released in the fall of 2025 by FusionCore Records. Title, cover and release date will be out soon.
Finally « Infinity », first full length album of duo « Scopelliti/Davidsen » is released.
You can stream it from all the main music services on the Internet and you can download it from Bandcamp.
The music can be defined as the perfect mix between "Modern Classical Music" and "Instrumental Prog Metal".
The album has been produced, engineered and mixed/mastered by yours truly.
Also it won't take long until my next solo album will be released, in fact it has already been written and recorded this summer (actually the writing process started 2 years ago, even though a couple of tracks were written in 2020. It will be released in 2025 for sure.
Other artists on the bill: Tosin Abasi, Nick Johnston, Phil X, Matteo Mancuso, Tom Quayle, Nita Strauss, and more...
Two weeks later I will be flying to China for "Music China 2024" playing for Inspiria Guitars and Hotone Audio (performance time schedule coming soon).
Please keep following me on your fav social network.
I was there both as an artist and as CEO of Inspiria Guitars, in fact our guitars were displayed and available for demos at booth 3945.
Duo Scopelliti/Bernadac played several gigs in the L.A. area. I'll make sure to post some clips soon.
I am now on full writing mode for my next solo album which might be ready by the end of 2024. In fact in the next 6 months I will probably focus more on it and maybe play some gigs here and there as well, nothing too intense though.
Please subscribe my YouTube channel, Bandcamp and Spotify profile, in fact that will be my creative output in the next following weeks.
