Ultras Timido 2
Six years after the first Ultras Timido, Fanciullino returns to that initial spark not to preserve it under glass, but to see what still burns. Ultras Timido 2 is less a simple reissue than a palimpsest: the original record is there, but written over, complicated and expanded by three previously unreleased pieces that trace how the duo’s repertoire has shifted in rehearsal rooms, clubs, and improvised spaces. Those added tracks don’t behave like bonuses tacked on at the end; they act as fault li…
Decollare Verso il Mare
Decollare verso il mare (“Take off towards the sea”) starts like a simple story of long-distance collaboration and ends up as a small, resonant fragment of recent history. Across three tracks created in September 2022, Dav Cappai - a Sardinian drummer based in Pisa - and Copycat Department’s Alexandr Chiesa - Italian-Russian guitarist and producer working out of Moscow - sketch the outline of a project that was meant to cross borders as easily as files move across a network. The initial idea was…

Day Hospital began not in a studio, but between a hospital bed and whatever lies just beyond it - that blurred zone where time dilates, bodies stall, and thought starts looping on itself. Out of that suspended space, Copycat Department shapes a sound project that treats techno and experimental music as twin methods for charting vulnerability and resistance.

Per Samie captures Matias Guerra, Valerio Leg, and Falco Baldaya in a single, fragile orbit around a plant wired as a silent listener, an improvisation where every sound feels like an offering and every pause like shared breath.
Nemico Immaginario
Nemico Immaginario is the sound of Fanciullino taking the idea of a band back to its most fragile, volatile core: two people in a room, a guitar, a drum kit, nothing to hide behind. Born from the encounter between Andrea Del Bravo and Davide Cappai, the duo treats this minimal setup not as a limitation but as an ethical position - if something happens, it must pass through bodies, sticks, strings, skin. Every hit and chord is traceable to a gesture, to the microsecond in which one player chooses…
