Agnese Valmaggia - I Never Lie

An original project in which music blends with audio samples, live electronics, videos and lights.

I Never Lie' is the latest project of drummer and composer Agnese Valmaggia.

It takes inspiration from the artistic research she carried out during her master studies at Codarts, focused on the use of samples in the composing process. For two demanding years she analyzed works by Steve Reich, JacobTV and Chassol's ultrascore and made different kinds of experiments to incorporate triggers and pads into her set-up. She (happily) got lost into Max MSP, trying to find a handy way to launch and control samples, video fragments and stage lights with her drumming and she spent nights programming patches until her house almost turned into a strobo-discotheque (a very nerdy one). Her composing approach changed and developed, always keeping samples as a starting point for her musical ideas.

This project is the result of this whole exploration, a step-by-step journey into a bittersweet reality, struggling towards the most frightening and yet ephemeral thing ever: the truth.
