.....Galliano’s put together another exceptional experience from start to finish, one way or another, no matter how you end up playing it on your end of things…the important thing is that on his end, he’s kept it as tight as ever, and put forth a real quality record that delivers on exactly what he intended it to.....
An Instrumental Odyssey, it most assuredly is. Enjoy.

Over time, my compositions have been revisited, remixed, remastered, always RELOVED, refreshed and sometimes reimagined.
The beauty and luxury of having control of your 'masters' is the opportunity to add to the sonic experience, if you feel you didn't get it so right the first time, or just the added luxury of being in control of your musical compositions and to hopefully enhance the musical and sonic structure.

........ For myself, listening to a song like “Watch Your Step” is absolutely on the same level as listening to the most compelling story you can think of being told aloud…you get right into every chapter of sound here as its revealed to you; and while it may be a subtle & slow-moving tune, you’ll likely find you’re right on the edge of your seat listening. It’s either that or you’ll slip into the fifth dimension from the meditative sound reaching the center of your mind’s eye.....

......That’s one of the most wonderful things about Galliano’s music – it is always reminding us of things, just vaguely enough to put the image in your head, before pulling back and allowing you to wander and fill in all the gaps. It’s a unique gift to be able to give people – the ability to call personal images to mind simply through the power of sound.......

…….. As I said before, and have said in other reviews of Galliano Sommavilla, he is a master of musical landscape…….. His unique style and arrangements also have a certain familiarity in what they evoke in the listener emotionally: what images of nature, what heat of skin on skin, what energy between dancing feet and pulsing floor……

David Ackert music quote:
“Artists are some of the most driven, courageous people on the face of the earth. They deal with more day-to-day rejection in one year than most people do in a lifetime. Every day, artists face the financial challenge of living a freelance lifestyle, the disrespect of people who think they should get real jobs, and their own fear that they’ll never work again. Every day, they have to ignore the possibility that the vision they have dedicated their lives to is a pipe dream. With every role, they stretch themselves, emotionally and physically, risking criticism and judgment. With every passing year, many of them watch as the other people their age achieve the predictable milestones of normal life - the car, the family, the house, the nest egg. Why? Because artists are willing to give their entire lives to a moment - to that line, that laugh, that gesture, or that interpretation that will stir the audience’s soul. Artists are beings who have tasted life’s nectar in that crystal moment when they poured out their creative spirit and touched another’s heart. In that instant, they were as close to magic, God, and perfection as anyone could ever be. And in their own hearts, they know that to dedicate oneself to that moment is worth a thousand lifetimes.”
