The music on “The Wind Collector/As Witness Our Hands” double cd remaster was recorded between 1989 and 1990: this “definitive” edition on compact disc was compiled and sequenced by Alessandro Pizzin, the original studio producer and assistant on keyboards/arrangements. TIP!

Disc 1 contains the complete 8-track master tape including all the unreleased tracks plus 2 trio improvisations. Disc 2 was lovingly compiled by Alessandro from over 5 hours of demos, sessions & rehearsals taken from the original reference cassettes: they’re far from perfect but they give a broader perspective of our work. We recorded this music in a basement (“Bunker” studio in Padua, Italy) under ideal conditions, no time or financial restrictions; we were allowed all kinds of facilities including a baby grand piano and excellent recording equipment so we were able to capture on tape ideas in real time. The music reflected our common purpose: mixing songs and harmonies with noises and experiments using both the electronic and the acoustic instruments. Unfortunately we weren’t lucky with the distribution and acceptance at the time, but after 25 years it seems that there’s an entire new audience for “The Wind Collector”; perhaps we were unconsciously ahead of our time… like a young DJ recently wrote: these pieces, which were made before the computerization of music, still are beyond the standard of the cold binary track.
