Selected Works

The Sound of Altitude is a sonic translation of an extreme mountain ascent commissioned by Adidas Terrex. The record converts raw biometric data, GPS coordinates, and atmospheric pressure into a visceral ambient-electronic soundscape. It is a cinematic exploration of physical limits and thin air, blending modular synthesis with organic textures to recreate the haunting silence and crushing effort of the peaks.

L’amante infelice is the debut solo LP from RIVA, a pivotal figure in the Italian contemporary electronic scene. Inspired by Alberto Moravia’s 1943 short story collection, the album is a fragile, intimate diary of sound recorded entirely on analog tape. Moving away from the high-energy club sounds he is known for, RIVA delivers 11 movements of "synthesized psycho-folk." The record is a masterclass in lo-fi electronics, featuring independent stereo channels that create an unstable, hauntingly beautiful landscape. From the deep, cycling patterns of the lead single "BLU" to the ghostly vocal mantras of the numbered tracks, this is an album designed for deep, immersive listening.

Directed all musical and artistic operations, overseeing the end-to-end production process. My role encompassed original composition, lyrical arrangement, and lead engineering for all recording sessions, resulting in a polished, unified body of work.
