Written in 2009, ‘Again‘ is an intimate and authentic song that reflects the artist’s autobiographical approach, fusing his Neapolitan roots, blues and world music in a universal language. Produced and arranged by Pino Daniele himself, author of the lyrics and music, ‘Again’ was recorded between his studio in Rome, the Blue Drag Studio, and the Forward Studios in Grottaferrata (Rome), mixed by Tommy Vicari in 2009 and mastered in 2024 by Pino ‘Pinaxa’ Pischetola in the Pinaxa Studio in Milan. Its publication celebrates the approach of two special anniversaries: i 10 years since his disappearance hey 70 since birth by Pino Daniele. The song will be available next Friday on radio and digitally. Together with the song, an intimate ballad with guitar, voice and electric guitar, a video will be shown at the stadium – wanted by the family, who takes care of the entire project – where the singer-songwriter can be seen at work in his studio. Pino’s voice, recorded at a concert in London in 2013, introduces the clip

How does Pino Daniele’s musical fusion reflect his influence on contemporary music?
**Interview with Giovanni Russo, Music Critic and Pino Daniele Enthusiast**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, Giovanni. There’s exciting news about Pino Daniele’s unreleased song “Again” being released this Friday, marking what would have been his 70th birthday and the 10th anniversary of his passing. What are your thoughts on the significance of this release?
**Giovanni Russo:** Thank you for having me. ”Again” holds immense emotional weight for fans and musicians alike. It’s a beautiful tribute that connects his legacy to significant milestones—70 years since his birth and a decade since we lost him. Pino’s music has always transcended boundaries, and this song serves as a poignant reminder of his talent and his autobiographical style.
**Editor:** You’ve mentioned that the song was produced and arranged by Pino himself and that it combines various musical influences. How do you think this fusion reflects his artistic journey?
**Giovanni Russo:** Pino’s ability to weave his Neapolitan roots with blues and world music has always set him apart. “Again” exemplifies that fusion, making it not just a song but a narrative of his life’s journey. It’s like a musical conversation that speaks to diverse audiences. I believe this universality is one of the reasons his music continues to resonate even today.
**Editor:** We’re also seeing a video accompanying the release, featuring Pino at work in the studio. How important is visual media in honoring artists who’ve passed away?
**Giovanni Russo:** Visual media plays a crucial role in preserving the essence of an artist. For fans, seeing Pino in his element—recording and creating—adds a layer of intimacy and connection. It allows us to remember not just his music but the man behind it. The integration of his live performance clips further enriches this experience.
**Editor:** As the release date approaches, there seems to be a mix of anticipation and emotional reflection among fans. What do you think this duality brings to the table?
**Giovanni Russo:** It’s a fascinating interplay, really. Anticipation for new music inevitably brings back memories of loss. Fans are excited, yes, but there’s also a bittersweet element as they reflect on his absence. This release could spark conversations about how we continue to keep legendary artists like Pino alive through their work—and that’s a vital discussion for music lovers.
**Editor:** In light of this release, what do you think readers would feel about the balance between posthumous releases and the integrity of an artist’s original work? Is there room for debate?
**Giovanni Russo:** Absolutely. This is a rich area for debate. Some may argue that releasing songs after an artist’s death could undermine their artistic integrity or intentions. Others might see it as a way to celebrate their legacy and keep their spirit alive. How do we honor their memory while respecting their creative choices? That’s a question that can lead to some passionate discussions among fans and critics alike.
**Editor:** Thank you, Giovanni, for sharing your insights.
**Giovanni Russo:** My pleasure! I look forward to seeing how the release of ”Again” resonates with fans both old and new.
