ATLANTICO
ATLANTICO is Marco's new album, containing 15 new tracks and released worldwide on November 30th 2018 for Sony Music.ATLANTICO is the beautiful consequence of Marco's two years worth of travelling around the world writing new powerful tracks, which marked the growth of one of the most interesting songwriters in the Italian music scene, working on the album with important collaborators and international featurings.
Before the release, Marco has surprisingly chosen two tracks, VOGLIO and BUONA VITA, two different styles describing the many nuances of the album, two poles of a musically great record which has however seen its first real single with HOLA (I SAY) ft. Tom Walker, published on November 30th.

BUONA VITA
Buona Vita, released together with the single VOGLIO before the album ATLANTICO, wishes something better to people who are by our side and those who are not anymore.
Probably there is no better wish, for those who are lost, like everyone else, in the streets of the world.
The song carries a message, with a light-hearted sound in contrast with the weight of the lyrics. Produced by Pablo Diaz-Reixa, better known as EL Guincho and former collaborator of Rosalia, this track is harmonically composed in major, which gives it a double personality.
On one hand, a cheerful musical garment warmed by the sun of southern Caribbean rhythms, and on the other a thread of words, blessings and good wishes "for those with a restless heart", for those looking for something, for those who pursue an idea, an ideal, a reason that makes existence the only journey worthy of this name.
VOGLIO
Voglio, born in New York, is one of the two songs which anticipated the release of ATLANTICO.
VOGLIO, I WANT, without nuances, without ifs and buts. A continuous contrast in the text, but without nuances. VOGLIO as a sort of "imperative" towards oneself. A verbal time completely unusual for the singer-songwriter, repeated endlessly as if to want to lose the value of the original meaning.
Common places, idioms, attitudes of everyday life that are overturned, exaggerated and exasperated sentence by sentence, everything the opposite of everything. An introspective track to make fun of too much seriousness.
A song born in the studio with a dirty and instinctive arrangement, full of backbeats and a continuous rebound of beating and rising, consistent with the contrast of the text.
