"Another gentle step"
Composed by Alessandro Pizzin & Alessandro Monti
"The magic room"
Composed by Alessandro Pizzin
"Like the previous one, this song was intended to be part of the 2015/2016 ill-fated WInd Collectors project.
Alieno deBootes made his own version more recently (adding the “magic room” ending session) available on his bandcamp page, but finally here it is the complete-as-intended original version of the only song featured in this collection.
Otherwise featured (with much more bitter lyrics) in the 2018 Alieno De Bootes album "Giorni di vento".

"Of all the pieces from the sessions, this is the only finished song: the lyrics are are about the lack of communication and understanding; creating and sharing music in a group can be a magical experience, but also a difficult process and bad ego trips can make it even worse; so I'm glad that the lyrics end with a positive note.
"The magic room" ending section was a possible way to close the record in my opinion: it reminded me of Bike by Syd Barrett from the 1st Pink Floyd Album."

"Barret's "Bike" and his "room of musical tunes ... some rhyme, some ching, most of them are clockwork" was EXACTLY what i had in mind when i was thinking of my abused "magic room"
