The mind can visit so many places yet staying in a single phisical space.The mind can smell the sea and the rocks. The mind can think of the stars so intensely that the eyes will be blinded by the light. The mind can picture the sand so vividly that the body will sink in it. The body doesn't really need to move to take the greatest of all walks.

The Great Walk is a project born from a live session series recorded years ago at Amsterdam-based Italian music producer Marco
Antonio Spaventi aka MaSpaventi’s studio, together with bandmates Two Thou (Luca Murgia), Autre (Pietro Caprioglio) and Enrico
Demuro.
Remained for some time on the guys’ hard disks, these live sessions, now edited and developed into five beautiful tracks with a cosmic
feel, see the light of day thanks to the collaboration between Gifted Culture, label of the previously mentioned Two Thou and Autre, and
Simona Faraone’s New Interplanetary Melodies.
Side A of The Great Walk’s first Ep, which will be printed in a limited edition (100 copies) on cassette and digital, begins with Monk.intro
(A1), just over a minute of mystery-filled space ambient, while with Motor One (A2) the sensations become decidedly more disco, thanks
to Eric Demuro’s rolling bass, stellar synths and jazzy Rhodes that immediately take us back the golden years of the nu-disco period. Ooh
Aah (A3), a downtempo track with a Balearic feel, closes the side with its airy notes placidly supported by a delicious 808 beat.
Side B opens with the beautiful Coast II Coast (B1) shimmering and fresh house music, like an ice cream to be enjoyed on the beach,
perfect for the hot summer months to come, the cooling effect is guaranteed.
The Big Acting (B2) closes the second side and with it the collective’s first work: a sidereal journey that will take you into another
dimension, sound escapism as dark and deep as a starless night.
The graphic part of the project was designed by Two Thou while the evocative cover photo is courtesy of photographer Andrea Pugiotto.

"The Valley" is a photographic project that was born from music.
La Valle Della Luna, also known as “The Valley” is a place in Northern Sardinia where time does not exist, far from the cool and fancy beaches.
A large community of hippies living there gives color to this valley. The lights of spontaneous parties perfectly match with the light of the nearby Capotesta lighthouse.
