Long龙 – Obsidian

“Sound Flocking” is the recording of Long龙 (Luca Sommariva – Keyboards and Electronics, Govind Singh Khurana – Guitars and Pedals)performance of 21st January 2018 at Studio Museo Francesco Messina in Milan, for the finissage of Vanni Cuoghi “Invisible Sun” (curated by Nicoletta Castellaneta and Giancarlo Lacchin).
The performance is a path between sound and graphic design, and the concept of the exhipbition is embedded in the sing-shape of the crow.
Natural sounds merge with drones and electronics, and the composition is based on the repetition of clusters, a continuum that fills the space and sound textures built on the deconstruction of peception.
A flock of sound crows, the image of flight, the patterns in the air, only apparently designed by chaos.

INSECTS ARE SEXY - A short story about dark matter

"Oxythyrea Funesta" is based on concepts related to the human mind and its complex interactions with the universe.

Luca Sommariva is a musician, a designer and an architect. His music route binds in a harmonious way, the design concept in a symbiosis that reveals the construction, attention to detail and aesthetic research.
The music that flows from is completely corporal: while moving in the territories of electronic music, Luca seems to be getting away from trends and schools, whatever.
His sound textures evoke universes where darkness and light are only one aspect of the same reality, soundtracks where drones dance with the more traditional aspects,  with a strong emotional and evocative load.
Big fan of classical music in his compositions instruments such as the piano or the cello play a key role, stressed in live performance where he’s often accompanied by a string quartet.
Luca creates personally the graphics and packaging of his productions, including the realization of the visuals, using different techniques, from photography to 3D computer graphics and always with previously unreleased material: as well as in music, where he never uses samples (except for any natural sounds “found” and recorded during his travels), even for images the concept is always original. All this reinforces the uniqueness of his communication, which is expressed in a personal artistic way.
