	As in every story there's a secret dimension and it stands to the hero to uncover the truth, even in this story there's a secret dimension but this time the hero will be you. Lost in the sands of time (searching for the truth).

about

Experimental Avant-Garde A Cappella
(with Chiara Gangemi)

A middle-eastern inspired song, with some tribal parts and a central part in Avant-Garde Drone style. Many voices and different techniques, but above all: much weirdness!

The "vocal percussions" are the foundations of this song, there are several vocal lines for rhythm; then comes the melody, that follow many indipendent lines and tries to use a middle-eastern taste.
In the central part we can find the more Avant-Garde passage, Drone oriented with some sygyt singing to make it even more odd.
The main vocals are a male light voice, which introduces the song, and a female voice that says no words and lets the listener find some sense in all this.

This song is about finding a hidden dimension, while being "lost in the sands of time" (that is how I imagine that moment when you are thinking about something very important so that past, present and future mix together). That hidden dimension: as your inner self and desires slowly come out, you are in a hypnotic state. Often you realize the truth was always there, at hand's reach, while you were looking far away.
