Ten tracks of instrumental and vocal performance of extraordinary caliber! Punchy rock and a variety of musical types cover a broad range of feels.
In Alberto Rigonis Own words;
I wanted to compose a solo-oriented album, without following any scheme, rule or trend, but I kept myself open to various musical genres and I invited some musicians friends of mine, to collaborate in this project. Although I am in a progressive rock band, in my album I tried to reach a freer and more poetic musical expression that matched to my melodic sensitivity. I therefore think that the album is accessible and can be appreciated by every kind of listener and not just by bass players.

I grew up listening to progressive bands like Dream Theater, Yes, Rush and Genesis that certainly left a mark in music, but through the years, I got interested in every musical genre.
From a merely bass-speaking view-point, even not following any particular template, I have absorbed much from Michael Manring, Doug Wimbish and others.
I tried to exploit all electric bass potential and specifically, the six-stringed one by playing not just thythms but also solos, as well as arrangements. Every now and then, I used tricky tools such as whammy pedal or envelope filters.
