  • ELECTRONIQUE (IT)

    "Light breaths of wind that they move l' air, only transporting the thought in a soft one volteggio. In rare an extemporaneous one it is arrived nearly to rock psichedelico (a Be Born) and is pleasant to assist to quest' cloud accumulation that has the good taste not to escape too much from the concept begins them."
