00:00From a virality that exploded on TikTok to the Serremo stage in 2022, the journey of Matteo Romano takes place with fake nostalgia, his first EP that tells his evolution not only musically. Nine tracks between hits such as Concedimi and Virale and unreleased songs. The artist, a guest of the Dienne Kronos, reveals his growth.
00:24The guiding thread is my need to express myself in the songs and see how much I have grown despite the fact that I have always remained the same person. This is where the title of the song comes from, because I look back and I look at myself from three years ago and I realize how much I have grown but at the same time I also realize that I am always me.
00:46A path also marked by a new awareness in the relationship with social media.
00:51It has improved, it has improved because I have also managed to detach myself a little bit. In my opinion it is right to see them as an opportunity and to see them as a job. Now I see them strictly as that and it is difficult to think of them as an extension of reality, it scares me to see them as something like that.
01:12And the choice to publish the EPs now and not immediately after the experience of Sanremo was dictated by the need to take time.
01:20Matteo, who started writing by necessity, is always there and perhaps also the fact that it took me so long to release these EPs is precisely the fact that I wanted, because I am a very perfectionist person, so I wanted to find very precisely the right key to bring out what I felt was the most authentic me.
01:43The experience of Sanremo, however, remains an indelible memory.
01:46A lot, a lot, a lot, a lot of euphoria and a lot of happiness to have crowned that dream there, because then it is not expected to reach 19 years old.
01:59I may not even have realized it, looking back now I realize how naively I approached it, but perhaps just for what it was at the time.
02:09I lived it like an open-eyed dream and I would like to be able to return with more awareness, although I realize that perhaps I would live it with much more anxiety, but it is also part of the game.
