It would have impossible to complete this record without the invaluable coordination skills and dedication of Onga (Boring Machines), who put together other members of the “Shyness Syndication”: Alex Viccaro at Eaten By Squirrels, Stefano ‘Momi’ Doro, Under My Bed Recordings, Federico Zanatta, Paolo Moretti & Madcap Collective, Figlio Tucano. We would also wish to acknowledge the support of all the special people we have met, shared time and lived with in the last three years. In particular, we would wish to thank Lorenzo at Magnetic Punch-in Floor, Marco at Under My Bed and Mauro for the efforts and the troubles shared during the recording sessions, spread over several years. We would also like to acknowledge the support from family (Mary and Luca) and friends, in particular Andrea Brovelli (The Kuan), Carolina & Gavin Baker (Jet Johnson, Billie Mahonei), Myriam Bardino, Ian Scanlon (Hey Colossus!), Kenneth ChuHelen Leech, Amanda Brindley, Chris Syme (Atlas Cedar), Helen McGoldrick, Paula Friar, Andrea Lombardo, Luigi Foscarino (BuioOmega), Matteo Laudati (My Shell, BuioOmega), Rachel & Andy Jones (Silver Rocket), Jim Taylor, Rachel Queen, Mark Hester, Luca Galuppini (ONQ), Lynsey Callaghan, Davide Landini (Morose, Straight Saranza), Lorenzo Detomasi, Rachel Greenway, Luciano Perondi (Molotro), Ian Anscombe, Mauro & Luca & Marco (Mr60).
A special note is due to Elio DeAngelis, Mika Hakkinen and Damon Hill for their incommensurable genius.
