My Projects

Beyond my work with Eighth Pyramid, I am constantly exploring new musical territories through studio collaborations and independent solo experiments.

​

My creative signature is rooted in the purity of the sound: I embrace a raw, vintage-inspired aesthetic both in my writing and production. I prefer the 'grit' and authenticity of the instrument over over-processed sounds, aiming to keep my music honest and organic.

​

This philosophy drives my current solo work, where I am writing and composing all the material for my upcoming EP.

 

Whether I am crafting guitar layers for others or developing my own stories, my focus remains on pushing the boundaries of the guitar while staying deeply connected to its soulful, unrefined roots.

Winter Grof

Winter Grof is an ongoing studio project born from a collaboration with my classmate André Canepa (from the indie project Vignette Wolf). Our partnership began with the single Lydia, currently available on all streaming platforms, which we wrote, arranged, and produced together.  Following this first release, the project has continued as a steady creative exchange, with new material currently in development as we expand our shared production work.

Unmasked

Unmasked is an experimental project designed as a soundtrack for audiovisual content. My goal was to build a complete sonic landscape using only guitars, pushed beyond their traditional roles.

 

By experimenting with recording and production, I used the acoustic guitar to create percussive sounds like kick and snare drums, while the electric guitar was used to simulate synthesizers and ambient textures. It is a study on how to create a full, cinematic sound starting from a single, organic source.

​

The title represents both a technical and a personal liberation. Conceptually, it marks a journey toward self-acceptance and the process of stripping away social masks to embrace an authentic identity.

 

This emotional transition is reflected in the music by deliberately moving away from the constraints of standard song structures and over-production.

Crossroads

I am currently writing and producing my solo EP, 'Crossroads', a project born from the desire to step outside my usual creative boundaries and explore the roots of Folk and Blues.

 

The EP features a personal reimagining of Robert Johnson’s title track—which I chose to perform entirely alone on both vocals and guitar—alongside three original compositions that showcase my drive to experiment with styles outside my standard.

​

To bring the original tracks to life, I have built a rich texture of collaborations with talented musicians from the Trentino scene: Emanuele Rosani (Malinferno) on drums and Lorenzo Taddei (Eighth Pyramid, Rusty Bucks) on bass. The arrangements are further enriched by the vocal contributions of Giulia Schipilliti (Eighth Pyramid) and Carolina Nebl (Metalotzi).

​

This EP represents a significant evolution in my path, blending the intimacy of a solo performance with the shared energy of a collective studio project.
