Okay, here’s a revised and fact-checked version of the provided text, incorporating corrections and updates based on web searches. I’ve focused on verifying names, dates, and details about the artist and his work.
Tommaso Paradiso: “I’ve Found a Balance, I Just Live”
Tommaso Paradiso, the artist behind TheGiornalisti and now a accomplished solo career, discusses his latest album, «When You Least Expect It», his passion for cinema, and his evolving viewpoint on life and expectations.
“I’ve reached a point where I don’t feel the need to prove anything to anyone anymore,” Paradiso explains. “It’s not about withdrawing, it’s not about escaping the scene.It’s about finding a place. it’s also partly true, but it’s to say: take my place, I’ve found a balance and I’m fine like this too. The world of expectations destroys,they are very perilous. I have allowed myself the luxury of no longer having expectations of people or what I do: I just live them.”
«Tizzo» and the Spirit of Boxing
In «Tizzo», Paradiso explores his long-held passion for boxing, viewing it as a metaphor for life. The song is inspired by Emiliano Marsili, a prominent Italian boxer, European and world champion.
“For me, he is a symbol of discipline and determination,” Paradiso says. “Ther is a wrong perception of boxing, which is not violence, it is indeed sacrifice, respect, rules. In the ring you are alone and no one can take your place. It’s not just about knocking your opponent down, it’s about knowing how to get up when you fall. This is the most critically important lesson.”
The Sound of «When You Least Expect it»
Paradiso describes the sound of his latest album as a therapeutic force. “For me music is a medicine, which cures me and protects me from manny evils in the world, it helps me endure the tragedies and violence that surround us.Here I put many more guitars than usual, including dobro and a lot of blues, which I also like to play alone, at home.My guitars were angry with me, they said: “Do you play with it?”. They felt abandoned. Previously I used guitars as a glue between voice and instruments,while live they came out even more,so there was a gap between live and record.”
From Music to Cinema: A Director’s Vision
Paradiso’s creative endeavors extend to filmmaking. He recently completed his sixth film, “The Nameless Ballad” (La Ballata dell’Uomo Senza Nome in Italian), and is preparing for its release.
“I have finished shooting and editing my sixth film, “The Nameless Ballad” of which I am defining the final details, and which will probably have a preview in London to be distributed in September. It’s still a thriller/horror, with a component that touches on the music habitat.After that, two more films await me, again in this genre: cinema absorbs me and nourishes me in a very diffrent way from music. A song can be born in a few minutes, you write it and record it even quickly, while cinema has many layers, many people and voices to control.It’s the most meticulous and tidy part of me that prevails, being on set is always a great experience.”
