Antonella
Pacifico is a self-taught musician and producer based in Copenhagen. From a family of music lovers, she grew up listening to
Tears for fears, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Airplane, Emerson Lake & Palmer and more. With her roots in southern Italy and Tuscany, and her formative years spent in Rome, Antonella played in a grunge and post-rock outfit before relocating to Denmark to focus on solo music production. The sound that
Pacifico has carved out with Rome in Reverse is blissed-out dance music featuring dreamy soundscapes driven by gripping electronic beats and occasionally accompanied by her own emotive vocals. Her uplifting blend of organic and electronic sounds is reminiscent of Four Tet and her penchant for ethereal dance music finds company in The Field. Rome in Reverse cites a wide range of influences, including Tycho, Moby, John Hopkins, The Chemical Brothers,
Massive Attack and Flume.
Opening with a steady kick and airy synth stabs, 'Oracolo' segues into a warm groove underpinned by a tight bassline and punchy percussion. Chopped and manipulated vocal samples establish a dynamic and lush soundscape brimming with detail. The song keeps building, introducing layers and feeling out the space as it progresses. The build is reinforced with a steady beat, providing the stability for the surrounding embellishments to shine.
Reflecting on the single, Rome in Reverse says: "Loops are my passion, especially the ones I have created with my voice. I feel that this track 'Oracolo' is a new standard of defining my sound, a ray of light which runs through me bouncing on other people and fading into the most beautiful place in the world."
