# THE ANTIQUE DOLL She sat beside the window Before I knew her name, Porcelain eyes and faded lace, While everything else changed. She saw the children growing, She saw the old ones gone, The house changed hands a hundred times — But still, she carried on. **The antique doll, Silent on the wall, She knows every secret, She remembers us all.** *— Instrumental —* They packed the books and pictures,...

Skin on the ceiling, Feet on the floor, Somebody’s laughing Behind the door. No name. No shame. No beautiful coat. Just naked dope Going down my throat. Naked — dope! Naked — dope! Nothing to hide, Nowhere to go.

THE CUSTOMER , Silvio Vinci (reworking from Original track The Customer Groove) Good evening. Take a number. Take a seat. Take… whatever they give you. I’m the customer. Yeah — the customer. Buy it. Try it. Love it. Leave it. I want more — MORE! I want less — LESS! I don’t know what I want. Feed me pictures. Feed me noise. Plastic dreams. Plastic toys. Click! Pay! Smile! Next. Excuse me… Is this h...

ROSBURY We met where the roses leaned Over the old stone wall, You wore the colors of summer, I hardly spoke at all. Lavender moved around us, Warm in the afternoon, And every step through Rosbury Felt like a secret tune. Rosbury, Rosbury, Where the wild flowers grow, You gave me your hand in the garden, And I learned what I wanted to know. We lay beneath the apple trees, Hidden from the sun, Your...

MEW Neon spiders on the ceiling, drinking shadows from the moon, there’s a radio inside me playing something out of tune. Mew, mew — call my name, through the glass and through the rain. Mew, mew — disappear, I can taste you in the air. Purple horses cross the hallway, someone whispers from the wall. I keep falling through the carpet — but I never seem to fall. Mew, mew — call my name, nothing eve...

# THE ALBERT **Verse 1** Friday wages, fitted suit, Rain upon my polished boots. You’re at the bar, your usual place, With last week’s trouble on your face. Drop a coin and pick a song, We’ve been holding back too long. **Chorus** Meet me at The Albert, Leave your working week outside. Turn it up, I came to hear you— You’ve been quiet all this time. Meet me at The Albert, We’ve still got tonight!...

One day, Fabrizio Cherubini and I got together at my place, just talking about music and casually recording a few ideas in Logic — some chords, guitar lines and vocal sketches, with no particular plan in mind. It was nothing more than a spontaneous jam: a simple drum track, a bass line and some organ chords played by me, with Fabrizio adding guitar riffs and improvised vocals. Today, that raw home...

Leave your coat beside the door, Let the rain fall where it will. There’s a hollow in these boards Where we used to stand so still. Take the hand I almost hid, Hold it like you always did. We don’t have to find the words, We don’t have to get it right. Let me feel you moving closer— Stay with me tonight. Dance with me, On these tired feet. Hold me close, Let the old floor creak. We’ve been worn, B...

**I’VE BEEN SHINING FOR YOU** [Verse 1] Left my earrings by your bed Like a reason to come back You said, “Stay a little longer” Then you turned to face the wall In the morning, over coffee You were somewhere I couldn’t go I kept asking how you slept When there was more I needed to know [Pre-Chorus] I learned to read your silence You never learned my signs I made it look so easy You thought that I...

“The Joint” returns in a fresh reworking of the previously released instrumental, now featuring warm female vocals. A soulful new dimension to its laid-back groove and funky jazz spirit.

Blue light… Across the hall. You hum… Through paper walls. One night… You sang my name. I never told you… But you knew it all the same. Oh… mysterious neighbor, Leave your light on low. I hear you through the silence… Stay… don’t go. Your door… Stood open wide. I called… No voice replied. Just dust… An empty chair. But come the midnight… I still hear you there. Oh… mysterious neighbor, Leave your...

PLAY LOUD ... Woke up late with a hole in my shoe, Coffee went cold, rent came due. Boss on the phone said, “Where you been?” I said, “Outside, trying to get back in.” Caught my coat on a rusty nail, Missed my ride, but I caught your trail. You were downstairs kicking up dust— I forgot what the hurry was. Got a little trouble hanging round my neck, A whole lot of Friday missing from my check. Then...

**RISE AGAIN – reworking “E Ballad” by Amanita** Questo pezzo, in realtà, non ha mai avuto un vero titolo. Gli Amanita si sciolsero prima che potessimo definirlo e portarlo alla sua forma definitiva. Era una mia composizione e ne è rimasta soltanto questa registrazione live: una sorta di fotografia di un brano ancora in divenire. A distanza di anni ho voluto riprenderlo utilizzando l’IA non per re...

I Can Tell — a raw slice of electric blues, recorded live by the Railroad Blues Band at the Beer & Blues Festival in Sassari, 2011. A snapshot of the band in its natural habitat: live, loud and instinctive, with all the energy and imperfections of a real blues performance.

A reworking enhanced with AI from a 2011 live recording by Railroad Blues Band, caught in the heat of a raw performance of the blues classic Done Somebody Wrong. The original live soul is still there — rough, spontaneous and unpolished — now brought back to life with a new sonic perspective.

**Verse I** Beyond the glass, the planets turn, silent fires that never burn. We draw our names across the dust, build our towers because we must. But no one waits beyond the blue, no distant eye is watching you. Only circles, cold and slow, turning where we’ll never go. **Chorus** Moog platform in the sound wheels, spinning through the hollow sky. Signals rise and disappear, no one answers, no on...

Slow Version ACID ORANGE JAM Verse Orange sun is melting slowly, Dripping colors through my eyes, Velvet shadows breathe below me, Silver rivers cross the sky. Purple horses ride in circles, Through a garden made of sound, Someone whispers from the mirror — “You were never on the ground…” Chorus Acid orange… Burning in my mind, Acid orange… Leave the world behind. Turn it over, Turn it inside out…...

reworking , part 2 , from Moneda jam session ACID ORANGE JAM Verse Orange sun is melting slowly, Dripping colors through my eyes, Velvet shadows breathe below me, Silver rivers cross the sky. Purple horses ride in circles, Through a garden made of sound, Someone whispers from the mirror — “You were never on the ground…” Chorus Acid orange… Burning in my mind, Acid orange… Leave the world behind.

**ACID ORANGE JAM — Pt. 1** Tutto parte da una **jam session registrata nel 2001**: istintiva, libera, senza una vera destinazione. Oggi quel materiale ritorna in una nuova forma, rielaborato e ampliato senza perdere lo spirito della registrazione originale. **Moneda feat. Silvio Vinci, Luigi Cattani & Fabrizio Cherubini** — *Acid Orange Jam* è il primo viaggio: groove ipnotico, psichedelia, impro...

# DISSOLUTION **Verse I** Concrete skies above the city, Faceless eyes behind the glass, Every word has lost its meaning, Every future feeds the past. Silent towers count the hours, While the streets forget our names, We were promised light and reason — Now we're dancing in the flames. **Chorus** Dissolution… Everything we built is coming down. Dissolution… No more kings, no sacred ground. And whe...
