Background

During the presentation of the album, which took place on the top floor of the Pirelli skyscraper in Milan, It has now been defined by Jovanotti himself as "an album where I try to enter modernity, to be contemporary, particularly in the sounds." Jovanotti has also expressed about the sound of the disc, saying that "it sounds very electronic, and I realized in a primordial way. Alone, with machines, samplers, turntables, drums and keyboards"
