Milano is a concept album by Daniele, featuring Parquet Courts and Karen O, depicting mid-1980s Milan’s youth culture amid gentrification. Tracks like Soul and Cigarette pay tribute to overlooked poet Alda Merini, blending upbeat tunes with themes of artistic struggle. Talisa, featuring Karen O, is a glam love letter to model Talisa Soto and the vibrant Milan fashion scene. Serving as an unofficial follow-up to Luppi and Danger Mouse’s Rome (2011), Milano captures the city’s mix of misfits, fashion, and fast-paced life.
