[:it]Sto lavorando a tanti dischi in questo periodo, ma oggi vi voglio parlare di uno in particolare.

Si intitola “Timeline” by Donald MacNeill and Roberto Diana.

Ho conosciuto Donald tramite Edward Abbiati dei Lowlands con cui abbiamo prodotto il disco “Fathers and Sons”,

dopo l’uscita di quel disco abbiamo suonato diverse volte live insieme in Italia e Scozia e sono nati dei brani nuovi.

Cosí qualche mese fa Donald mi propose di fare un disco insieme.

Inizia così a Marzo l’avventura di questo disco Sardo/Scozzese .

Donald ha curato tutti i testi, io ho prodotto e curato tutta la parte musicale, scritto parti per archi, suonato batterie, pianoforti, percussioni oltre che i miei strumenti a corda.

Il disco racconta diverse storie di vita dell’Isola di Colonsay, ripercorre la storia del luogo e i personaggi, racconta la vita nell’isola, c’è tanto humor e momenti emotivamente piu impegnativi.

La linea temporale scorre attraverso i brani e ci si ritrova negli anni 40/50/60 fino ad arrivare a momenti piu attuali.

Sono contento di aver potuto tirar fuori un altro lato di me stesso e di aver fatto quello che è ufficialmente il primo disco in cui appaio come co-autore.

A breve news.

[:en]In this months I’m working at different album, but today I want to talk to you about one of those.

It’s titled “Timeline” by Donald MacNeill and Roberto Diana.

Edward Abbiati, from Lowlands, introduced Donald to me some years ago. Edward and I produced Donald’s first album “Fathers and Sons”. After that Donald and I played live different times in Italy and also in Scotland, and new songs arise. So a few months ago Donald proposed me to realize a new album.

Started in March this Sardinian/Scottish album’s adventure. Donald wrote all the lyrics and I produced the whole instrumental part. I wrote strings’ music shit, played drums, piano, percussions and all my guitars.

The album tells some stories about Colonsay island, about the island and its people. In this album you can find the right mix between humor and other moments more emotional.

The Timeline goes thought the songs and we are back in ’40 ’50 ’60 till our days.

I’m glad I could push out another side of myself and did what is officially the fist album where I appear as co-author.

News soon.
