The music video is officially available on YouTube 'Ncroce, the single by Veronica Simioli which marks the solo debut of the Neapolitan singer-songwriter.
Already released on August 20th on digital platforms, now the micro-film of the song set between mineral quarries and riding stables, in a parallel dimension of hugs and isolation, tells the story of the courage and resistance of a woman who believes in her talents and personalities.
An alternative-r'n'b wave that leads the interpreter to new sound territories and that sees the producer in the role of the guardian angel Big Fish. The artist born in '87 is the author of the lyrics and music, while the one who represents 50% of Sottotono injects into the song that contemporary groove that makes the piece pulsate halfway between the dancefloor and introspection.
A song-magnet ready to seduce and make you think.I wanted dreamlike settings and disorienting scenarios to express the real dimension of this song. – explains the singer-songwriter Veronica Simioli – because in a space almost suspended in time I felt I could represent the misunderstandings that every human being has in common. Each with their own inner world, their own limits, their intimate fears or fears. All the paintings in the 'Ncroce video have matured through my emotional experience of writing and manifest the natural aesthetic consequence. From the muffled and shielded hugs, as prejudices and feelings of pride, to the reservations of people on our individual choices. The face in the foreground scarred by miniature crosses can summarize the signs that hurt us and make us understand that we are alone and surrounded by what is happening around us. It is in that moment that you have to fight and stay afloat by defending what you believe in".
"'Ncroce arises from the desire to affirm personal emotional diversity – says the artist – because they are the ones that make up our most intimate being and determine who we are and what we do. I have understood that artistic/human independence establishes your role and your space in reality. Alternative-r'n'b architecture, an oasis that educated me by listening to D'Angelo and Alicia Keys, Eduardo De Crescenzo and Billie Holiday, Rosalía and Damien Rice, allows me to express this whispered cry to say how changeable the nature of people is and how essential it is to preserve the personalities that inhabit us. Quoting the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa, I know that we are multitudes. 'Ncroce is the first step with Tempo Records and having Big Fish at my side – an artist I have always admired since I was a teenager – is an epiphany that makes me understand how much this is the path to take. The song sees us in total symbiosis and I invite you to live this story and dance with meand ".
