TALASSA

TALASSAThe first album of unreleased songs by DARIO MUCIout on June 14thWith Talassa, the musician from the Salento area Dario Muci highlights, note by note, piece by piece, one single song of protest and hope, as a singing storyteller from his native land with all its contradictions.True stories, current affairs and past ones, about the sea and land, and the Salento and migrants, from the fight against gang-mastering (direct hiring of farm labour for very low wages by landowner's agents) to environmental protection: Talassa meanders and unfolds through eight world music tracks with lyrics in the Salento dialect (but also in Grico, Italian, and Arabic).Valuable collaborations enhance the album's richness: Raphael Gualazzi, arranger and interpreter of the true story behind "Mohammed". Nabil Salameh in the plea/prayer "Ommmuammare" in the Salento dialect and Arabic dedicated to the endless deaths that have occurred among the waves. Enza Pagliara who, with her archaic voice, elevates the pathos of several songs. Treble and Rocky G. Vox who, in "A Sant'Asili", a song inspired by the fight against gas pipelines in the Mediterranean, express their personal protest. Giuseppe Semeraro who wrote the lyrics to "Ulivi", a song about the Salento area hit hard by the Xylella outbreak (Olive Quick Decline Syndrome (OQDS). a bacteria that kills olive trees).Talassa is yet another labour of love dedicated to my native land. It is something that comes from my soul, which I can no longer hold back (Dario Muci).*****Eight original tracks and a new form of writing, outside traditional standards, for the musician from the Salento area Dario Muci who, after twenty-five years of activity and research, debuts with his first album of unreleased songs which he penned the lyrics to and wrote the music for. Talassa, born after a gestation period of over eight years, is his song of protest and hope, and is like a megaphone amplifying true stories about the sea and land, current affairs and past history, the Salento and migrants, and about.
