Metropolisthe songwriter's debut album Decibring with it a musical vision that ranges between pop and electronics, telling the solitude and effort of urban life. The disc was anticipated by the individual Americanwhose video clip is online.
The registry and music are two concepts that do not mix easily, but Deci It shows that the date of birth in the identity document is nothing more than a number, if your art is the message. Born in '91Francesco (this is his real name), arrives in the music scene with a mature approach that denies expectations related to his young age. An artist who already knows how to deal with a market that often tends to focus on much lower age to be successful.
The Mantua artist is not afraid of refusing the generational stereotypes that accompany the young people of his age group. He found in music the means of freeing himself from the limits imposed by society and does it with a record that speaks of real experiences, emotions and reflections. Metropolis It is the first work of Deci After several individuals published, an album that explores the darkest sides of modern cities, those that consume and alienate those who live there.
“American”: a single to dream and dance
The single American It is a perfect example of the sound that characterizes Metropolis. With a renewed 80s sound and a mix of R&B and pop, Deci Create a timeless song that hits from the first listening.
The song plays with a strong contrast between the initial, minimalist verse and with a foil in quarters, and a wider and more danceable refrain, characterized by synth-pop sounds, typical of the new wave.
The video clip of American It is another strong piece of the project. Filmed on a historical tram of the 1920s completely restored by the ATM of Milan, the video tells a timeless journey, a parenthesis far from any logic and convention. The direction of Riccardo Sanmartini and Performer's contribution like Andrea Piccirillo And Nadege Okou They give the video a unique atmosphere, which recalls the extravagant parties of the metropolis, where each individual is free to be who he wants.
