B. Tornerai
PPU from way out, coming to you from Bassano del Grappa, near Venice, Italy. “1 2 3 Stella” is the first single by Alex Fernet. It’s about polyamory and unconventional love stories in general, as well as their consequent troubles and difficulties. The setting is ludic and stellar: “1 2 3 Stella” is an italian game and “stella” means star. “Tornerai” is an Italian cover version of “In your Eyes” by Badbadnotgood feat Charlotte Day Wilson. During the Sixties, Italian singers used to cover american soul and beat songs in Italian, not necessarily translating the lyrics. This cover song wants to “recover” that custom and it’s about the regret after a breakup (“tornerai” means “you will come back”).
Publishing for "In Your Eyes" cleared through Harry Fox Agency. Written by BBNG and Charlotte Day Wilson.

ALEX FERNET is part of the music scene in Bassano del Grappa, near Venice, Italy. Out now on vinyl via PPU. Formerly active in bands rooted in psych rock, he ended up on his current boogie-disco path after jamming, guitar in hand, during a DJ Outback set last year. A cantautore disco record that sublimates polyamorous love stories, their anguish, and unconventional love into a world of light-speed stars. The music video, which he edited himself from footage shot on VHS, is gloriously silly and totally great. (Original Japanese text by Saito)
