The title track was inspired by a loooong journey we did with Nibaldo & Eugenia, from EAS Limitada to Rosario, Argentina, for a show I did over there, in front the Paraná River. It was quite the experience, I flew from Santiago to Iquique and then we went driving for two days to catch a few resting hours and then off I went to the soundcheck.
It was actually 7832 KMS (4867 miles)
I want to thank all the people, friends and family that inspired me this year to work on these tracks and made them better, more human and less technically oriented due to their personalities and life experiences tipping me in that direction. I guess this is where my music will be going now. To infinity and beyond.
Special thanks to Vero and Isa for just being who you both are and supporting me always, no matter what. Tatalinco, Chiry and my brother Nelson who have been there for me since the very beginning, letting me know that it's possible to improve and change for the better. Nibaldo, Diego & Eugenia from EAS Limitada in Chile, for their invaluable and constant support and friendship. Sully, from Sully guitars whose sparkling instruments have breathe new life into my playing. DR Strings, your Veritas are simply amazing. Mark and Annika, you rock \m/
The Headrush Crew, Jer Gervasi, Brian Davitt and Alex Solano, the pedalboard and my Sully Raven Custom are all I used to record this EP. Marcos Basso and Gordon, from Basso Straps. Helena & Rogerio, from Santo Angelo, the only cables I've used since 2011, you're the best, Mr. Mozarella says thank you!
Sandy and Frank from the Nobels Pedals Team, this one's for you Franky, godspeed!
My buddy Bojan, from Blackflag Studios in Iquique, Chile. Pizza and friendly conversations go a long way to turn experiences into music ;)
Last but not least, Mr. Grover Jackson. Knowing you personally in January meant a lot to me, your work is what got me interested in becoming a musician in the first place :)
That's it. I hope I'm not forgetting anyone, but if I did, I can always edit this, lol :p
I sincerely hope you can enjoy this music, it's made with all the love and caring in the world, let's make it fucking sparkle! \m/

Besides from my friend Alvaro Moscoso playing some of the bass in 7832 KMS and my buddy Bojan Ostojic smashing the drums on Twisted Amps, everything else is my fault :p
