A sonic journey through the emotional landscape of being an artist.
This EP traces the deeply human, internal process of becoming and being an artist: the initial confusion, the fire that awakens within, the weight of darkness, and finally, the clarity that emerges. Each track represents a stage in this emotional arc — a personal confession, a moment of truth, a declaration that art is the only language that makes sense.

1. Praelium: the inner battle. Confusion, disorientation, self-doubt. A restless mind searching for its center, questioning its worth, asking: “Am I really an artist?” Praelium is the threshold — the fight to believe, to begin, to step into the unknown.

2. Ardor: the fire ignites. Ardor is passion in its purest, rawest form — the burning realization that being an artist is not a choice, but a need. It’s the goosebumps, the shiver that makes sense of everything. The moment you understand why you endure the struggles: because this fire is the reason you exist.

3. Nox: The weight of darkness. Nox is anxiety, frustration, the sting of feeling stuck, of delaying dreams, of not reaching where you thought you'd be. It’s the pressure, the fear, the heavy nights. But it’s also the truth — the shadow side of art that demands to be felt.

4. Lux: the light within. Lux is peace — not as a solution, but as acceptance. It's the calm that comes from trusting the process, believing in yourself, and letting art flow from the heart without overthinking or self-judgment. It's the light that remains, even after the fire fades.

History of Us (from the Short-Film Dating History)

Born in Venice, Giacomo Brocca began his musical journey as a DJ in the city’s club scene. He later began private lessons in piano and guitar, which sparked his passion for composition. He pursued formal studies in Electronic Music and Composition at the Conservatorio Cesare Pollini in Padua, where he graduated with honors. During this time, he also worked as an audio engineer, collaborating with contemporary composers, theater directors, and the Padua Symphonic Orchestra. These experiences sparked his love for orchestral music and inspired his transition into scoring for media.

To deepen his skills, Giacomo completed a post-graduate program in Media Composition, blending his electronic background with cinematic orchestral scoring. Now based in Berlin, he composes for film, advertising, and digital media.

The short film Sugar, for which he composed the score, was nominated at the Achtung Berlin Film Festival and RIFFA in Canada. Most recently, he composed the music for the new commercial of the Deutschlandmuseum in Berlin.

Giacomo's debut electronic EP How to Artist is out now and is part of the multidisciplinary exhibition How to artist?, created in Berlin alongside Chloé Guisan and Laura Abbondandolo. The project blends illustration, fashion, and music into an emotional and sensory journey into the heart of the artistic process.

Giacomo composes music that enhances the narrative while continually refining a personal style shaped by both orchestral tradition and contemporary sound design
