Introduction Sick For Milk

It’s always difficult to talk about something that involves you directly. Like, for example, a record of which you curate the artistic production. And a record, if you have decided to dedicate yourself to it, to offer your time, your skills, your commitment, is a son. Even if you didn’t write or play it, you still end up being a part of it. I have produced about twenty records, I could have produced more, perhaps, but I always chose to work on quality and for quality. To present this record, this one, is even more difficult than for all the others, because here there are two children and some other "adopted" ones. It’s no mystery, Jacopo, the leader of Sick for Milk, is my son. His adventure companions I know someone since he had just put on long pants, someone since I still had a timid hope to keep at least part of the hair. Did I artistically produce a record of my son? No, although there would be absolutely nothing wrong with that: I produced the first album of Sick for Milk, a group of which I have been a fan since the first concerts in Rome pubs. I am overcritical with my children, both legitimate and adopted. So I was all these years (not many, but several compared to the age of the members of the group), until, as a enthusiast, as well as professional in the field "music and similar", I did not understand that this talent, which widely felt, had penetrated deep into the souls of these boys, leading them to an artistic maturity that certain formations, more my peers than they, have not yet reached.
I didn’t decide to make a record: talking one evening in e-mail with Marco Lincetto, I asked him to listen to a piece, the first of Sick in version "unplugged", which was on youtube, just to have an opinion. Marco after a few minutes he rewrote me with a lapidary phrase "very good, I want to make this record". It didn’t take much effort, nor did I have to convince anyone. Which took a lot of weight off my shoulders. And it has comforted me in my vainglorious conviction of knowing her and understanding the music well, to recognize talents. In short, I knew how to do my beautiful job.I knew, of course, that the recording Velut Luna would be of very high quality, so everything was perfect.
Then what will come of it, these guys are talented not only in music, and their being, precisely, talented in things so different from music is, in my opinion, the reason why, at their age they already seem a mature and established education. Because I never believed in talent distinct from intelligence and knowledge, or at least from wanting to know. And you’ll forgive me if I misquoted Miles Davis.
If I may, I close this very short presentation with a genetic-affective-animist notation: the acoustic ovation that plays Jacopo is that which was of his uncle Danilo and left by him prematurely in inheritance to this unworthy brother who passed ( a very long loan) to your son. It is the number 1037, the first one arrived in Italy. And in the last 35 years and passes has done very, very well his task, stepping on stages all over Italy and a beautiful piece of the world, without ever missing a stroke.
