Appointment all'INIT, club 'underground' by programming one of the most valuable and diverse metropolis. The evening is 'nervous breakdown night', the legendary neon billboard in Florence, the synth wave duo Atmosphere 0, Illogical (unfortunately absent due to problems occurred at the last minute) and Mariot Kima, legendary 'meteor' wave of Roman '80s.
The appointment with the latter has become a pleasant 'constant' for a few months and is repeated at rates that coincide with the presentation of my documentary, a film dedicated to the Italian new wave of the '80s that gives the title this evening.
The turnout of the public good, and there waiting for the headliner of the evening but also for support groups.
They are 23 and Mariot takes the stage, moving with elegance and safety.
A scarf around his neck resting softly, just to make it a bohemian character ... of the past.
valid Accompanied by two backing vocalists, launches its electronic base safely, his is a techno-sets with no additional instrumentation.
scroll through the tracks, the melancholy 'Bar', the electric and schizoid 'Lightning' (among my favorites), the poignant 'Tunnel' and the lively 'joke' (both recorded in 1985 in collaboration with other musicians of the Romans 'turn' wave of the Roman period). Closes his brief but intense show, the song 'Desire' perhaps the most delicate and touching the whole performance.
It 'time to retire already, time is running out but after this performance there will be other ways to recur. In the same way, with grace and elegance.
Thanks friend nice and ethereal. See you soon!
