“Take your time and share the harvest” is a compilation of improvised soundscapes and songs made between 2002 and 2008 in collaboration with some people near me.
As this project is developing and evolving, I have now the necessity to “fix” these musical moments, born spontaneously thanks to different human (more than merely “working”) relationships.
It is for this reason that I have intentionally choosed “raw” live records with some little imperfections of execution.

A Special thank to Hue for the collaboration and Tryfar for the co-producing support

"C’è un velo di malinconia tra i linguaggio musicale dei Passo Uno, sillabare ci aiuta però a comprendere l’estrema sensibilità e le ampie sfaccettature di un full-lenght da ascoltare e plasmare su noi stessi." ...»
