And anyway, Maluvia, Carlo and Frank, I disagree on the importance of 
graphics and imagery. You surely need it to sell something, but I don't 
want to sell myself or anything else. My message is just: if you 
appreciate what I do, you can support me. Period.

Recently I've redesigned my website from scratch, and I decided to make 
it as simple as possible. I want to concentrate on things more important 
to me, like music. You can't believe how much this choice has freed my mind.
