This is the debut album from the EDM DJ Alesso.  He's risen to notability quickly, due to the success of his single "Heroes (we could be)".  His album was upbeat for the most part, maybe even something to shuffle to.  Here's my opinion on a story that could be told through the music, based solely upon the titles of the songs.

Profondo basically means profound.  The profound elated feelings that could come from a new experience.  Those profound feelings could be like the experience of a payday.  All of what came from that profoundness may manifest itself as gratifying.

    

The aforementioned gratification could lead to a feeling of invincibility.  Being a courageous hero seemingly came from that.  Tearing the roof up would allow for a free flow of expression.  That expression could just lead to a settling of the previous elation.

    

That settling of elation may exude confidence or even coolness.  Due to that scars from the past might have recovered.  The sweet escape might be a romanticized hope of setting out anew.  The destinations in mind are just another reason to belief in something better.

    

If it wasn't for that someone, there would be a feeling of something missing.  It's in his blood, because of how he has been impacted.  Now that he is under control, things have come to a better understanding of himself.  All this love has come from things being under control.  Immortale means immortal, which would also come from that understanding and love.

I advise that you to watch this video.
