A journey\nthrough <strong>various styles held together by\na personal vision<\/strong> and a sincere approach. The album was entirely\nself-produced by Lorenzo Bonarini in collaboration with Alberto Cagol aka Nevo,\nthe Dozhens historical producer, the first hip hop crew in Padua and currently\npart of Bom Chilom Sound, a reggae dancehall sound renowned in italy. Bag Of\nSeeds was recorded almost completely in Lorenzo&#8217;s living room in March-June\n2017. Dimitri Tormene plays trumpet in the folk\/digital reggae <em>Those Who<\/em> and in the country ballad <em>For Us<\/em>, and Mattia Piovani plays drum in\n<em>For Us<\/em>. All other instruments, real\nor not, were put down by Lorenzo Bonarini. The album was mixed and mastered by\nNevo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Genesis of the album<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00abI wanted to make\nsongs that sound like the music I grew up with. Bag Of Seeds is almost\nliterally, what I want to give to the world. <strong>I put in it what\nI love, different styles that I have made my own in all these years<\/strong>. I\u2019m very proud\nof the songs, but it\u2019s first of all the journey made to accomplish the album that\nI\u2019m proud of because I\u2019ve learned a lot about recording and writing. Sometimes\nit was hard to do it all alone but it was worth it.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"C:\\Users\\lorenzo\\AppData\\Local\\Microsoft\\Windows\\INetCache\\Content.Word\\Lorenzo Bonarini bag of seeds 4.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The album had to\nbe a tribute to Leonard Cohen (who passed in November 2016) but things changed\nin the making. The second track <em>Pinch Of\nSalt<\/em> is a Cohenian ballad, and is what remains of this initial project. The\nwriting took its own direction then and has evolved from itself, as when seeds\ngerminate in unexpected plants. That process has made real a long-awaited\nopportunity, a natural outpouring for creativity and a way to do at the very\nbest and without constraints all that was possible:\nlyrics, arrangements, instrument recording and real production. Everything was\ndeliberately <strong>played in the same room<\/strong>,\nthe living room, and also this element is a tribute to\nCohen&#8217;s <em>Songs From A Room<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Most of the recordings took place in a couple of weeks in March 2017. After discontent and rethinking, and after playing the songs at various venues (Bitter End, Prohibition, and other&#8230;) during a New York stay, online and available to everyone since november 2017.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Biographical note<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lorenzo Bonarini is a singer, song writer and guitarist born on \u200b\u200bJune 27th 1980. It was the day when the Dc-9 Itavia crashed into the sea near Ustica (a mediterrean island, sadly famous for this episode involving Libyan, Italian and French intelligence agencies). On the other side it was the day when Bob Marley played at the San Siro Stadium in Milan, his only time in Italy. He has written music for tv show, movies, documentary as well as for jazz ensamble and many other as rock, reggae, grunge, Hop Hop, reggae-dancehall. He studied jazz harmony and jazz guitar attending courses with great jazz guitar masters such as Bebo Ferra, Rory Stuart, Daniele Santimone and others.<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>BUY: APPLE MUSIC &#8211; ITUNES :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> https:\/\/music.apple.com\/id\/album\/bag-of-seeds\/1480231169<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<table class=\"wp-block-table\"><tbody><tr><td>\n  <strong>Contacts<\/strong>\n  email: <a href=\"mailto:lorenzo.bonarini@gmail.com\">lorenzo.bonarini@gmail.com<\/a>\n  \n  phone:\n  0039-3333526502\n  Soundcloud:\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/lorenzo-bonarini\">https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/lorenzo-bonarini<\/a>\n  \n  FB: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Lorenzo.Bonarini.Boa\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Lorenzo.Bonarini.Boa<\/a>\n  \n  \n   \n    \n    <strong>Discography<\/strong>\n    Cose Malvagie \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rockit.it\/dozhens\">Dozhens<\/a> (2005) \n    L\u2019Albume \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rockit.it\/samoah\/album\/lalbume\/10302\">Boa di\n    Samoa<\/a>\n    (2010)\n    &nbsp;\n    \n    \n    <strong>Original soundtrack<\/strong>\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemaitaliano.info\/ilpaneavita\">Il Pane a Vita<\/a> (2013)\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemaitaliano.info\/exposottolasuperficie\">Expo Sotto\n    la Superficie<\/a> (2016)\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemaitaliano.info\/fuoriclasselascuolapossibile\">FuoriClasse\n    La Scuola Possibile<\/a> (2016)\n    \n   \n  \n  <strong><\/strong>\n  <\/td><td>\n  <strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>\n  <\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bag Of Seeds: almost a debut BAG OF SEEDS is an eight-track album by Lorenzo Bonarini out in November 2017.
