‘Gli Amanti’ excerpts the diary of a year and a half spent desperately seeking intimacy within the hectic climate of modern love. Reed recorded it over a month at Pom Pom Studio in Rome with producer Giampaolo Speziale (Malihini, About Wayne) alongside the rest of the Pom Pom crew, a collective of rising star indie talent at the heart of a bubbling cool-kid’s weirdo pop scene in Rome.
The 10 song collection is infectious alt-pop at it’s finest, putting Victoria’s intimate yet inclusive lyrics and alluring voice at the forefront, amidst reimagined shades of 90’s and early 2000’s nostalgia ranging from Sheryl Crow and PJ Harvey to MGMT and Sleigh Bells. ‘Gli Amanti’ tells a candid series of digital age love stories in a way that’s at moments tongue-in-cheek, at moments heart breaking; the overarching effect is refreshingly sincere, songs that stick with you.
“The songs themselves were born out of three different versions of an actively breaking heart” says Reed. “Yet it was hands down the most fun I’ve ever had making a record and I think it shows. Because at the end of the day, lovesickness both really is and isn’t that serious. There was an attitude of creative freedom in the studio that left room for so many surprises” Reed recounts. “The whole thing was very unrehearsed, but we were all coming from a similar set of left-of-center pop musical reference points, so the result was something quite pure, with an honesty and playfulness that felt genuinely magical to tap into.
