On this album, co-written with Franco Battiato, Pio abandons the experimental style of his previous album Motore immobile to embrace a pop sound. The music, arrangements, and stylistic elements hark back to Battiato's compositions, with Battiato providing vocals on some of the album's tracks. Pio also shares a team of musicians with the Sicilian artist, ranging from renowned guitarist Alberto Radius to keyboardist Filippo Destrieri, co-writer of the title track.
