I loved being part of @lipstomoon launch of their first ever book 'In times of darkness". This work is important and special and improvising on it was an honour. Buy the book, share the power✨ Thanks @pouyaehsaei and @tarafteh

on the outside - Emerald EP coming on December 16th on the outside is an unapologetic music world where women take their space This video was created by art collective @librifinticlandestini and photographer and filmmaker @tanguybombonera mixing, intersecting and superimposing various videos from archives, web and more dating between 1950s - 1980s. The sequence of the video was planned together with @maddieghezzi and @maria_chiara_argiro to highlight the storytelling they wanted to accompany their music. The videos have been superimposed, cut, overlapped, exported dozens of times; the original light, framing and colours were modified to decontextualise them from the original work. credits: Home recorded Mixing: @maria_chiara_argiro @pouratomoil Mastering: @pouratomoil Production: @maria_chiara_argiro Video: @librifinticlandestini and @tanguybombonera Song title: Ross Gay in The Book Of Delights @dengyue.records Supported by @helpmusicians

A short explanation of how “Quando il cervello” from “Monologo addosso” was created. The lyrics were short and dense and I wondered how I could translate into music the sound of a healing process. Watch until the end to see a brief “tutorial” of the main looping cell! #monologoaddosso is available on @bandcamp for @habitablerecords Music by Francesca Naibo, @maddieghezzi and @beatricearrigoni_ Lyrics by @cornaggiaelena11 Recorded and mixed by Luca Martegani in @niton_lab #release #italianlyrics #looping #healing

𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐨 𝐀𝐝𝐝𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐨 is a sound work by Beatrice Arrigoni, Maddalena Ghezzi, Francesca Naibo, and Luca Martegani, which elaborates and transforms elements of Elena Cornaggia’s poetry with the aim of fully restoring its expressive depth: concrete music, electronic inserts, the use of extended techniques, polyphonic and contrapuntal writing interact with each other to compose an evocative and expressive mosaic of colors. Monologo addosso presents itself as a point of intersection not only between writing and improvisation but also between different languages. The centrality of sound - which is continuously shaped and reshaped within the work - invites the listener on a profound journey of contemplation, in the form of an ‘internal’ monologue capable of revealing the essence of all things.

Melissa Almaguer and Maddalena Ghezzi of M³'s Fall Equinox 2024 Cohort 7 discuss their commissioned work, "Re-member Water", detailing the oneness and maternal connections we ALL have to water. As artists from all walks of life, it's important to be reminded of the magic and cycles water brings up in us that reflects in our practices. 🌀 🌊 M³ is an expansive initiative created to empower, elevate, and give visibility to overlooked musicians in intersection with cultural background, identity, sexuality, and ability across generations in the US and worldwide, through a unique model of mentorship and musical collaborative commissions. 🎶 #water #oneness #artists
