Sator
Tip! "The mystery of the ancient and puzzling magic Sator square is evoked again in present time through five dark tracks entitled like the five palindromes that form its fascinating structure: Sator / Arepo / Tenet / Opera / Rotas. Amon (Andrea Marutti), the most important and estabilished italian Dark-Ambient project, and Nimh (Giuseppe Verticchio), a well-known and eclectic alchemist of electronic-ethnic-acoustic-ambient sound mixtures, gathered together and worked side by side for some weeks…
Early Electronic Works - Caustic / Composite
*300 copies limited edition. In process of stocking. 2023 stock* Since the first half of the 1990s, Giuseppe Verticchio/Nimh began to explore the territories of sound experimentation, alternating and integrating the use of electronic synthesisers, effects, software, ethnic instruments and sound objects of various kinds. In "Early Electronic Works" two obscure unpublished works of a purely electronic nature have been collected, "Caustic" and "Composite", recorded at different times during those y…
Iron and Ice
*200 copies limited edition* After a good six years from Nimh's last solo CD of previously unreleased material (Circles of the Vain Prayers), and two years after his previous collaborative CD (Post-Folk Lore Vol.1), Giuseppe Verticchio is back, walking again on those same electronic paths strongly imbued with ethnic ritual suggestions and sonorities. The sound of string and wind instruments, metals and percussion instruments coming mainly from South-East Asian countries, combined with refined el…
Cross
* Edition of 200 * Cross is the final release by Maribor. It contains recordings made in 2011 - already released on the cassette X, which was part of "Collezione del silenzio" series issued by Silentes Tapestry - and three new tracks. Maribor was a project conceived by Stefano Gentile with the collaboration of Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh / Hall Of Mirrors), Andrea Marutti (Amon / Hall Of Mirrors), Gianluca Favaron (Under the Snow / Zbeen), Maurizio Bianchi and Pierpaolo Zoppo (Mauthausen Orchestra…
When Only Shades Remain
Andrea Marutti (Amon and Never Known, among others) and Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh) have teamed up again for this new Hall of Mirrors monumental release. Textural, noisy, profound dark ambient with some pretty 'melodic' patterns hidden behind layered noises and evolving drones. Astonishing, to say the least.
Altered Nights
Third CD from the acclaimed collaboration between Andrea Marutti (Amon, Never Known, among others) and Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh). Spread out over two CDs and totaling over 100 minutes, there's a lot to absorb here; organic, textural ambience that's murky and abstract, uncurling like tendrils of smoke before coalescing into a simulacrum of shadowy figures, to turbulent, more immersive post industrial sounds that prowl the depths of subterranean caverns and forgotten, still radioactive ruins. Fea…
Forgotten Realm
Second chapter in the Hall of Mirrors saga, a project that hides the fervid minds of Giuseppe Verticchio/Nimh and Andrea Marutti/Amon. Another long and fascinating journey among the ruins of lost and ancient civilizations, among desolate landscapes forgotten by time.
Reflections on Black
Hall of Mirrors is a new musical project formed by Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh) and Andrea Marutti (Amon). The music is in the similar vein to the respective works of these two Italian artists. Consequently it provides a handful of dense, droney, shimmering electronic sequences that dissipate into distortion and black noises.
Beyond the Crying Era
"Beyond the Crying Era is one massively immersive and entrancing score built on ominous, eerie soundscapes of darkly, grainy, and slowly moving elegance. Winter-Light is an indie label based in Netherlands and specializing in deep electronic soundscapes and any related genre coming from the shifting ambient music galaxy. They are active since 2014 and notably renowned for having released materials from Rapoon, Seetyca and Inner Vision Laboratory - clear veterans of dark drone textures and eerily…
Black Silences
"Newly launched independent label based in Italy Naked Lunch Records is another fine purveyor of now legendary industrial power electronic acts (Maurizio Bianchi…) and challenging contemporary artists in the field of abstract and noisy drone ambient. It sounds quite natural that Giuseppe Verticchio, mastermind of Nimh found a warm welcome there. With a quite singular, eclectic and dense musical production that goes from thrilling cinematic calmscapes, to ritualistic looped ambient and post-indus…
Travel Diary
"Travel Diary is the latest CD release from the multifaceted eerie droning project called Nimh. This last offering features pieces reissued from a previous CD-R called Lanna Memories with others sound materials and unreleased tracks. The musical content provides a colorful ethno-phonographic experience including a large corpus of micro-sounds taken from rituals of 'everyday life' among Eastern Thai regions and secular communities. Echoes from the Hills opens with a serene-poetical moody prelude …
From Unhealthy Places
"The energy, the genius and the intransigence of the music of the hystoric 'cult' power electronics project Mauthausen Orchestra / Pierpaolo Zoppo, joined to the originalty, the eclecticism, the rigorous experimental research carried on since fifteen years by Giuseppe Verticchio, mostly with his Nimh solo project. Disturbing images of unhealthy places, nocturne landscapes covered with fog, psychotic nightmares, tormenting and delirious, described with sonorities of great impact and incredible dr…
The Unkept Secrets
"This is another perfect Nimh album, a world of magnetic, somnanbulic, fuzzing, moving electronic textures and drones covered by glacially melancholic guitar parts. These recent years there have been many descent projects published under the dark ambient - prog electronic label, but The Unkept Secrets is exceptional, reaching a degree of composition and complexity rarely obtained in this specific genre. Meridians opens the album with an intimate, colourful, extatic droning minimalist guitar comp…
The Missing Tapes
"In this project, Giuseppe Verticchio explores the universe of ritualistic, primal, shamanic acoustic drones and traditional music from the east. The result communicates us the ecstasy. This album summons the divine nature, it's a real musical ceremony, a chant of the origins. The acoustic, ritual elements are perfectly mixed with a solid industrial, noisy ambient base. Consequently this is a rather unique, very personal musical experience that can be collected by ethnomusicologists and fans of …
Subterranean Thoughts
"Subterranean Thoughts is an extremely intriguing experimental electronic album that finds the perfect equation between aesthetic of enlightenment and the production of cinematic sound textures. Subterranean Thoughts is a ravishing immersive experience, conjugating concrete elements with well established electronic treatments. Rewind is a dreamy-like, detached piece that dissolves tonal violinist stringed orchestration into a vast electronic abstract path (an obvious contrast between decadent in…
The Impossible Days
"This album reveals Giuseppe Verticchio’s incredible capacity to introduce us into an unique world of “concrete” sounds that sublimate the common nature. All compositions are means of communication. Concrete noises and electronic fequences are totally intertwined in an homogeneous spectral process. Lost signals features a minimal, obsessional synthesised micro-signal, endlessely repeated. It is progressively covered by moving, spherical electronic sequences, a cascade of natural sounds treated i…

First time vinyl release for Nimh, this guy has a solid experience and has collaborated with some genius of dark ambient / done, like Maurizio Bianchi, Mathausen Orchestra, Andrea Freschi...A1 This Crying Era is a featuring with french pianist Philippe Blache, for an outstanding melody.This Lp compiles some New material, and some material released on Silentes on K7 or cd-r released in the past 10 years.

Krungthep Archives
"After the post-industral / power-electronics 'diversions' of his recent collaboration with Pierpaolo Zoppo / Mauthausen Orchestra in From Unhealthy Places, and Forgotten Realm, the 'second chapter' of the Hall of Mirrors projects with Andrea Marutti / Amon in dark ambient 'territories', Nimh (Giuseppe Verticchio) returns as a 'solo' artist in his newest Krungthep Archives, rediscovering the sounds of his oriental ethnic instruments, collected in he Far-East, mainly in Thailand. The recordings o…
