Monetine è il primo best completo di Daniele Silvestri, un doppio album con dvd che attraversa quindici anni di musica del cantautore mettendo insieme momenti, storie e canzoni molto diverse tra loro, con uno spirito che va ben oltre la classica raccolta.
Monetine, su etichetta SONY BMG, prodotto e realizzato dal suo storico produttore Enzo Miceli e dallo stesso Silvestri, è anche il titolo del singolo che ha anticipato l'album in radio. Si tratta di una versione profondamente rinnovata di Pozzo dei Desideri (brano contenuto in Sig.Dapatas, 1999) che, grazie a sonorità rivoluzionate e un nuovo testo, trova un'identità diversa e definitiva.
Ad impreziosire Monetine due inediti: Una giornata al mare di Paolo Conte, la prima cover a trovare spazio in un album di Daniele Silvestri, e Senza far rumore. Oltre questi la versione inedita de Il mondo stretto in una mano, brano contenuto nella colonna sonora del film “Questa notte è ancora nostra”.
Altri quattro brani del passato– Dove sei, Idiota, L'Uomo intero e La Classifica – sono stati appositamente risuonati per l'occasione tra la Slovenia e lo studio Officine Meccaniche di Milano.
Impilati l'uno sull'altro ci sono poi grandi successi come Le cose in comune, L’uomo col megafono, Cohiba, Aria, Salirò e La Paranza, ma anche brani meno conosciuti al grande pubblico che in Monetine trovano una seconda vita come Me fece mele a chepa, Desaparecido, Testardo e Giro in si.
Nella versione doppio cd+dvd, Monetine contiene anche il primo dvd di Daniele Silvestri che riunisce i 15 videoclip della carriera dell'artista. Tra i contenuti extra, un video animato sulle note de La Paranza, alcune immagini del concerto di Caserta del settembre 2007 e una selezione di filmati dei fan raccolti su You Tube, come la spettacolare rivisitazione amatoriale del video Gino e l' Alfetta, e stralci di concerti immortalati e condivisi in rete.
Monetine è anche un opendisc. Inserendo il disco nel proprio computer, è possibile accedere ad un mondo virtuale in continua evoluzione ricco di bonus audio e video, news e contenuti esclusivi. L' opendisc consente inoltre di creare un collegamento diretto con Daniele Silvestri gestibile tramite e-mail, forum e chat.

..When I walk in to the house and hear music, I know you..re there because you are made of music. Your mother, like her mother before her, was made of jazz. And for my father, I was all about theatre and writing. Your mother is still jazz, I am still a pen: I hope that every day you will remain music... These are the words of Alberto Silvestri, the day of his son Daniele..s eighteenth birthday.
Daniele..s growth as an artist began in a cover band inspired by Duran Duran. He bought himself a keyboard instead of a much sought-after scooter he had been eyeing up and at 20 went Inter-railing around Europe. In 1994, he released his debut album, simply entitled ..Daniele Silvestri... The album earned him the Premio Tenco for best debut of the year. He also topped a poll among readers of ..Musica & Dischi.. magazine, again for best debut, and took part in ..Sanremo Giovani.. (the branch of the Sanremo Festival reserved for emerging artists) with the song ..Voglia di gridare.., which got him as far as the stage of the Teatro Ariston.
He was again part of the ..Giovani.. section of the Sanremo Festival in 1995 with ..L..uomo col megafono.., which he sang seated on a stool and holding up a series of coloured cards featuring the song..s key lyrics. As often happens at Sanremo, the artist ranked lowest went on to have major success: his talent was immediately recognised by a jury of songwriters who awarded him the Premio Volare, the prize for the song with the best lyrics, for ..L..uomo col megafono... His second album, "Prima di essere un uomo", won him the ..disco d..oro.. and was ranked by ..Musica & Dischi.. among the top ten albums of 1995. The summer single ..Le cose in comune.. was one of the most played on the radio and earned him the Premio Tenco for best song of the year. ..L..uomo col megafono.. came second.
In 1996 he wrote his first soundtrack (for ..Cuori al verde.., directed by Giuseppe Piccioni and starring Margherita Buy and Gene Gnocchi) and recorded the double album ..Il dado... Judging by the reaction of the crowd during his concerts, the album..s most popular song is ..Cohiba.., dedicated to Che Guevara, but never released as a single. ..Il dado.. features a hidden track entitled ..Rappresaglia.. .. exactly 6 minutes and 41 seconds after ..Aiutami.., the last track on Side B .. which features Silvestri on the drums and Max Gazzè on bass guitar. Gazzè was also a member of the band that followed Silvestri on his Italian tour for a year. Silvestri..s live performances are above all a platform on which to put forward the causes he believes in, notably the special concert in Rome in November 1996 to fight landmines where he sang ..La bomba...
In 1997 he performed at the Primo Maggio in Rome, sang in Milan as part of the concert for Adriano Sofri, Ovidio Bompressi and Giorgio Pietrostefani, took part in the Premio Città di Recanati and Arezzo Wave festivals and on July 31 left for Havana for the Communist Youth Festival. The theatre has proved another outlet for this artist of many talents. In May 1997 he performed a triple role of writer (with Rocco Papaleo), actor (again alongside Papaleo) and singer in the stage-show ..Rosso fiammante bloccato neve dubbio vetro tesi infinito... The collaboration with Papaleo continued on the latter..s album ..Che non si sappia in giro.. with a duet entitled ..Foca... A few months later (21 October 1997), ..Frankensteinmusical.., a musical written by Antonello Dose, Marco Presta and Tullio Solenghi, opened in Cesena. Daniele Silvestri wrote the music. He also penned ..Al fratello che non ho.. and ..Il fiume e la nebbia.. for Fiorella Mannoia..s album ..Belle speranze.., which came out around the same time.
In 1998, he had a hand in Tiromancino..s debut album, co-writing and featuring on the track ..La storia.. and writing ..Dying Again... He was awarded the Premio Ciampi and the Premio Mariposa (for emerging artists) for the lyrics on his album ..Il dado... He wrote the words for two songs (..Iolanda.. e ..Sete..) from Angelo Orlando..s play ..Domani notte a mezzanotte qui... From the theatre, he then turned his attention towards the cinema: he composed the music for ..Barbara.. (with Valerio Mastandrea) in which he also had a cameo role playing himself.
He returned to the Sanremo Festival in 1999 (this time with the big boys) with ..Aria.., a song against the death penalty. He is also ranked significantly higher this time around, in the top eight. He was given the Premio della Critica (a prize in honour of Mia Martini) and the jury..s prize for best lyrics. A short time after, radio stations turned the new single ..Amore mio.. into an enormous hit. On the 1st of April 1999, his fourth album, ..Sig. Dapatas.., was released. The title is an anagram of all the first letters of the songs on the album. A month later, he was again one of the stars of the Primo Maggio performing ..Aria.., ..Amore mio.. and ..Cohiba... Another honour, the Laurea de Andrè of the Premio Lunezia prize for ..Aria.., arrived that summer. The autumn saw the release of Subsonica..s album ..Microchip emozionale.. with Daniele featuring on the track ..Liberi tutti... In 2000 he performed ..Aria.. and ..Cohiba.. in a live concert organised against the death penalty (July 7 in Pescara) and wrote 5 songs (..La rivoluzione.., ..K.N.A.., ..Automaticamente.., ..La quiete che verrà.. and ..Polvere) from ..Serendipity.., the album from P.F.M released in the autumn. Drawing on his brief but powerful experience as a busker, on September 23 he took part in the fourth Stradarolo .. International Festival of Music, Art and Theatre of the Street, organised by his friends from the group Têtes de Bois. A month later, he released a greatest hits album, ..Occhi da orientale.., which featured three previously unreleased tracks: the title track, ..Testardo.., and ..Cuore di cera... He also wrote the music for ..Tango.., Francesca Zanni..s show inspired by the troubles of the Argentinian desaparecidos.
In 2002 he began to record a new album which saw him perform for the third time on stage at the Teatro Ariston and in which he again crossed paths with his friends Têtes de Bois. Indeed their new album, "Ferrè, l'amore e la rivolta", was about to be released and featured Silvestri..s performance on the track ..Non si può essere seri a 17 anni.. which he also translated into Italian. His appearance at Sanremo with ..Salirò.. was marked by the final evening and an unforgettable surprise performance with actor and dancer Fabio Ferri, something between one of Silvestri..s own songs and ..Saturday Night Fever... ..Unò-duè.., his sixth album released at the time of the Festival, spent weeks at the top of the album charts while ..Salirò.. was the most played song on the radio in 2002 and earned him four prizes at the Italian Music Awards: best single, best video, best arrangement and best musical composition. The year closed with a concert in Praça da Independencia in Maputo, Mozambique (on November 1) in which Silvestri, invited by the NGO Movimondo, played in front of thousands of Mozambicans.
In 2003, he again performed at Rome..s Primo Maggio concert, playing ..Il Mio nemico.. which won him the Premio Amnesty and released his first book, ..L..autostrada...
January 2004 saw the release of his live double album ..Livre Transito.. just after the single ..Kunta Kinte.., written with Frankie Hi-Nrg. He returned to Maputo on October 4 for the second concert in Mozambique, this time with his friend and former bassist Max Gazzè. In the last three years he has devoted his time to his sons Pablo Alberto and Santiago.
He is back in Sanremo in 2007 with a new single entitled ..La paranza.. and a new album of unreleased material is out on March 2.
Enzo Micel has produced each of Daniele Silvestri..s albums in the last 10 years. An uninterrupted artistic partnership which has seen him follow ..the man with the megaphone.. through his glittering career.
