I'll be performing for Hotone Audio, Legator Guitars, King Blossom Guitars and probably some other jams around. Please feel free to visit my Facebook page for constant updates if you wanna check me out at Namm.
"O Sole Mio" is the well known Italian traditional song.
No, it's not a joke...
How did I come up with this idea? I was explaining some "improvisation concepts" to some of my students and this melody suddenly came out and I thought: "I need to produce and record a metal version of this track". So here we are...
Many thanks to Strobe (video shooting & editing) who did an amazing job as usual, Eric Meyer @ the Noiz Faktory recording studio who mastered the track, Igor Dunderovic for playing accordion & of course all my sponsors, Hotone Audio, Randall amps, Legator guitars & Lundgren Pickups for their constant support.
I did produce the whole thing playing all the guitars, mandolins, bass and programming (drums & keys) as well as mixing.
Ladies & Djentlemen, here is "O Sole Mio (Goes Metal)"...
The Frankfurt Musikmesse days have been amazing: all my demos for Hotone Audio were extremely crowded; thanks a lot to anybody who showed up, Hotone audio crew & Gurus amp...
What am I working on? I am preparing for the shooting of an instructional dvd for chitarraheavy.com The name of the dvd is "The Art of Shredding".
On 5 September 2016 I'll release my new single both on YouTube (official video) and Itunes. The song is an Italian cover from the 17th century revisited in a progmetal version.
I'm starting tracking demos for the next Arcadia's album; my plan is to have them finished by the end of summer.
Still no news about the label involved in releasing the disk or release date but I believe the entire process will take some time.
Last but not least update: These are my latest 2 demos for the new Hotone Xtomp, both are Arcadia's song playthrough, "Scarecrows' dance" and "Art of Darkness".
