River by MOTMOT
OUI055: MOTMOT / River
River is the first single out of the forthcoming album from MOTMOT, a project of singer Chiara Bacci, where composition intertwines with improvisation and sonic exploration alongside saxophonist Adia Vanheerentals, pianist Simon Groppe, and drummer Gaspard Sicx. The lyrics speak through images, short stories, and fragments, while the music creates calm atmospheres that are sometimes abruptly interrupted. The structures unfold horizontally and, when they return, they reappear in a new form.
Chiara Bacci is an Italian singer and composer based in Brussels since 2020. Her way of using the voice combined with electronics plays a fundamental role in her practice as it allows her to develop an idea of vocality which is no longer necessarily anchored to its traditional function, as she passes nimbly from being a storyteller to a source of abstract sounds.
