More than ten years ago, walking in the school's courtyard with my friend Riccardo, I began to talk about some songs of Heaven 17 : "train of love in motion", "let me go" and "trouble". Riccardo talked to me about Erasure ("sometimes"; "stop"; "drama") and Depeche Mode ("photographic"; "blasphemous rumours" and many more). We had same musical taste, interests (tennis, soccer, science fiction ) and hated the same matters (matematics and physics). One day, during the interval, we decided to create a group, trying to emulate bands like Depeche Mode and Erasure. Unfortunately we did not have suitable instruments, except a BONTEMPI organ (that still have!) and an acoustic guitar: not ideal in order to compose music electronic... Thus we went to buy a cheap KAWAY keyboard and 2 used Roland synthesizers: D50 (marvelous) and JX-8P (a dinosaur, in our opinion). After some months we took a nice GEM S3 Turbo, a KAWAY KC-10 Spectra and an arranger (GEM WK 2). We recorded music into a FOSTEX X-26 multitracker. We had the essential in order to begin. The band assumed various names: I can remember "Emotional detachment", "Style of music" and "Winter's heart" . We had a great enthusiasm: obviously, we dedicated more time to music then to study. We made some concerts for our friends and realised some demo-tapes (gone lost by now ). Unfortunately, as often happens, reality upsets the plans... We chose different University and, after a long pause, we broke in 1998. Some years later, I decided to buy new machines (a microkorg and a KORG Electribe R mkII) to play again. This solo project was only a short parenthesis. When I met again Riccardo, we formed a new band and bought some used synthesizers (NOVATION Nova II, KORG M3, KORG MS2000, WALDORF Micro Q, YAMAHA CS1X), another dear D50 and 2 ROLAND drum machines (MC 303 & D2). With a new name ("Giving For The Call", taken from the language of Stock exchange), in september 2005 we started working on a new musical project. In 2007 we began to change composition method, passing gradually to Vst instruments. Currently we're trying to find the right way between new technologies and tradition of melodic synthpop.--- Written by Maurizio..
