Rimasterizzato, Qualità Sonora Ottima
5 out of 5 stars
UWD9163June 24, 2025United States🇺🇸
Comprato da un altro venditore che lo propone come rimasterizzato e 180 gr. Non avendo altro punto di riferimento se non il cd originale, posso affermare che l'album risulta molto tranquillo e con un'ottima qualità sonora, è davvero un piacere ascoltarlo non avendo né fastidiosi rumori né particolari difetti. Secondo me un'ottima versione da avere per chi preferisce il vinile.
Battiato's Spiritual Sound Exploration
5 out of 5 stars
ukbajhiqoApril 5, 2024United States🇺🇸
Fantastic record, especially for the lyrics and the blend of electronic and rock sounds. The collaborations with talented artists like Morgan, Ginevra Di Marco, and Madaski bring diverse influences and experiences, all united in this album. Battiato continues to be an explorer of sounds and spirituality simultaneously. Ottima disco, soprattutto per i testi e la fusione di suoni elettronici e rock. Le collaborazioni con artisti come Morgan, Ginevra Di Marco e Madaski portano influenze ed esperienze diverse, tutte riunite in questo disco. Battiato è sempre più un esploratore di suoni e spiritualità allo stesso tempo.
