The Wimshurst's Machine: Music

• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)
• MP3 short clip, lo-fi play (modem)

This song was born by chance, while we were working on our 2nd album. One day, during the early days of our CD "The Alchemist", we met this book, that is telling a different story with the same title. This is our small tribute to a great writer. The song came out at 1st try, wrote down by our good Duilio in the shape of a sort of Bossa Nova, and played at the tenor and soprano saxophones by Roberto. Just a few verb effect, no re-mixing, no sampling, no programming: everything you hear in this song, every passage, every time change, was played live and you hear the recording of the 1st try of every instrument line. Just to show we do play electronica by choice, and not cause we have not other skills... Hope you may like it, even if it's very different than our usual musical genre!
We strongly recommend to read Paulo Coelho's books: an experience that may change people's life (in a positive way).
