Luca Curcio
Luca Curcio is an Italian-born bassist, composer, producer, and improviser based between Berlin and Copenhagen, performing and producing across Europe. His music merges improvisation, sampling, and deep rhythmic exploration, inspired by the groove and improvisational traditions that shaped contemporary music, from Charles Mingus and Charlie Haden to A Tribe Called Quest, Gnawa trance musicians, and experimental producers like Flying Lotus — shaping a raw, rhythm-forward sound that transcends genre boundaries.
Curcio leads La BOMBA, a project that channels high-energy, groove-driven improvisation through rhythmically focused compositions, sample-based textures, and raw, physical interplay
