MICHELE DUCCI: On the right path with new single
FORMER M+A and Santii member MICHELE DUCCI gears up to the release of his debut solo album on 7th June (Monotreme Records) by unveiling the bright, uplifting, new single, ‘You Lay The Path By Walking On It.’
“This is one of the first songs I wrote after a long period of no longer touching a musical instrument,” explains Ducci.
“I was walking around whistling the theme that had suddenly come to my mind. As I walked, I thought that often, when we have an event or trip, we spend so much time anticipating it that when it arrives, we can feel disappointed.
“We have waited so long for it that as soon as it has been reached, it seems swept away in a second like a face traced on the sand and blown away by the wind – as in Kafka’s ‘The Next Village’ story you feel in a situation where it seems not even a whole life can be enough to get to the nearest village.
“Then, continuing to walk and whistle and forgetting that I had to go somewhere, I realized that it is never a question of getting somewhere, but of making the path by walking on it. From the start it was an unknown child who sang while walking and I found myself singing with him, serenely whistling like the confidence of the flowers that bloom every spring.”
