Voronoi Debut EP Blends Surrealism and Digital Fragmentation
The Italian duo Voronoi, consisting of Matteo Nobile and Luca Scarrone, released their debut self-titled EP on the OOH-sounds label, founded by Michele Pauli and Andrea Mi. The four-track EP emerged from jam sessions and extensive post-production, resulting in fragmented, non-linear compositions that reflect contemporary listening habits characterized by skipping and eclecticism. Nobile, a punk and post-rock bassist, and Scarrone, a jazz double bassist with dub and techno influences, share an expressive approach to drum machines and sequencers, treating them as musical instruments. The name Voronoi references Russian mathematician Georgy Voronoi and his irregular polygon diagrams, symbolizing the duo's abstract, geometric vision of music that combines human and machine elements. The EP's visual component includes still-life abstract images by Natalia Trejbalová, featuring silicone balls, foam, and gel that resemble 3D renderings. The video for track V3, created by IncepBOY (Michele Pauli), explores everyday materials like colored bags, polystyrene, and ice, reestablishing a connection between physics, mathematics, and reality through unconscious editing that follows the track's rhythmic irregularities. The EP is available on Bandcamp.
