"Vulcano" is a song performed by Italian singer Francesca Michielin. The three-minute song was released as a digital download on 21 July 2017 by Sony Music Entertainment.[1] [2] The song has peaked at number 44 on the Italian Singles Chart.[3]
In an interview with ANSA, she said, "Vulcano is an emblematic title that already makes sense in that there is something explosive in me and in my new way of making music, a volcano is something immediate, dirty and visceral, which at one point explodes."[4] [5]
William Lee Adams from Wiwibloggs described Vulcano as "play[ing] in the space between urban pop and tropical house, throbbing and pulsating with a heady mix of drum, piano, horns and more", concluding that "amid all the heat there’s a strong sense of cool, creating what may be her finest single yet."[5]
An official music video to accompany the release of "Vulcano" was first released onto YouTube on 21 July 2017 at a total length of three minutes and seventeen seconds.[6] It was directed by Giacomo Triglia and filmed in Berlin between 22:00 and 5:30. In the video, Michielin travels through the city and visits various locations including the subway, a photo booth and a nightclub.[7]
