Wheels and Love - New song and video

Watch the Video of “Wheels and Love”, the first single from the upcoming album
The video is by artist/animator Massimo Ottoni.
I love Massimo’s work and I think he is a genius. But let’s not tell him or it’ll give him a swelled head. He used an experimental animation technique called “paint-on-glass” (every single frame is hand painted on glass) and he’s been locked away in his camera room for months. Hope you like it too.
I recorded the first half of the song singing and playing directly in my mobile phone, in the garden, and then added the rest of the arrangement in my home studio.

Guarda il nuovo video di “Wheels and Love”, il primo singolo tratto dal prossimo album.
Il video è dell’artista Massimo Ottoni.
Adoro il lavoro di Massimo, lo trovo geniale. Però è meglio se non glielo diciamo, sennò si monta la testa. Il video è stato realizzato con la tecnica sperimentale “paint-on-glass”, il che significa che ogni singolo fotogramma è stato realizzato a mano dipingendo su vetro (e significa anche che Massimo ha passato svariate settimane rinchiuso nel suo studio).
Per quanto riguarda la musica, la prima metà del brano l'ho registrata sul mio cellulare in giardino, cantando insieme chitarra e voce, e poi ho aggiunto il resto degli strumenti nel mio home-studio.
