Fare Soldi “Scion: Me What You Got” Mix + Q&A
Fare Soldi fell upon my ears when I first heard their super italo/acid tune “Tuto Tutti Sempre Subito” – a tune I still bump often. The duo were gracious enough to answer a few questions as well as hooks us up with a mix they made for Scion. Check it.

1. Who is Fare Soldi? How would you describe your music?
Fare Soldi are two charming 30 y.o. with “the most and the worst” beautiful taste for everything you can find in life.

2. What was your first musical memory?
