Italian darkwave trio Vonamor has released "Take Your Heart", the lead track from their debut album which will be released in February 2022 via Time To Kill Records. This is a quick-paced track, recalling the best dark pop of the '80s, with a tandem of male and female voices, confronting each other without reaching a mutual understanding, the addictive rhythm all the while inciting dance and movement.
In "Take Your Heart", the incongruities of language are a humorous counterpart to an imperfect world, made up of discord, virtual realities, and fatal detachment from spontaneity and lightness. The first female voice is answered by the addressed male voice, although he ultimately answers from “the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveller returns”. A game of Dionysian invocations, of accusations and misunderstandings - all of it held together by a deep love that overcomes death. "Take Your Heart" is an invocation to life, to love, to irony, to spontaneity in line with the poetry of Vonamor’s music.
Vonamor is made up of sisters Giulia Bottaro (voice, bass, metal flute) and Francesca Bottaro (drum station, sequencer, sax, clarinet) and vocalist Luca Guidobaldi, with Francesco Bassoli (guitars and loops) and Martino Cappelli (guitars, mandolin, bouzouki, oud, loops) joining the trio for live performances.
Theirs is a story of unexpected timbres, resonating at the very intersection between darkwave and electro music. The band's roots date back to 2016 Rome when their focus was to communicate images, authoring various scores for short films. This morphed into the trio as we know it today with its contemporary taste and allure, literary echoes, imperious art-pop and enigmatic aesthetics. Listen now to "Take Your Heart" below and wait for more in the coming weeks. Link
