Description/Reviews:
Loomings is a one of a kind musical universe of mingled voices and percussions, acoustic and electronic sounds. Their songs follow unpredictable paths: sometimes they emerge from complex compositional strategies, sometimes they’re just driven by the desire to walk through harmonies, vocal arabesques, instrumental unisons and phases. It is a music which belongs to the tradition of experimental pop and rock — artists like the Beatles, Rock In Opposition, Frank Zappa — yet it doesn't step again on their trail, the aim being to venture further along the course shown by these « pioneers ».Media/Samples
Loomings were founded in 2012 by Jacopo Costa, an Italian musician living in Strasbourg. Within Loomings, three classical trained singers (Maria Denami, Ludmila Schwartzwalder and Benoît Rameau) join their forces to the jazzy groove provided by Louis Haessler (bass) and to the percussions and the electronics devices controlled by Enrico Pedicone et Jacopo Costa. The result of this blend, now poetic, now ironic or powerful, invites the most adventurous listeners to discover new musical territories.
