Hall of Mirrors

Hall of Mirrors is a dark-ambient/experimental music project founded by Andrea Marutti (Amon) and Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh) in 2005, following a previous collaboration that resulted in the creation of "Sator" a CD credited to Amon and Nimh. In their first three CD releases, Hall of Mirrors used several collaborators, among which we remember Nefelheim, Subinterior, Andrea Ferraris, K11, New Risen Throne and Vestigial. On "When Only Shades Remain", released in 2018, Marutti and Verticchio decided to go alone. Hall of Mirrors combine typical Dark ambient sounds with ethnic-ritual elements, sometimes crossing over more 'noisy' territories, close to Industrial music, but also often developing Ambient and calmer atmospheres, even softly melodic. Their music has been released by Silentes, Eibon Records, Malignant and Kalpamantra.

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…
Turra (MiniCDr 3")
"I was searching the Turra along with Andrea Marutti to capture sounds for a forthcoming music release, when the refrain of the Archiaro carillon came to my mind. Without rehearsal, and availing myself of the natural reverb of the Turra, I gave voice to my soul." - Tommaso Cosco"Turra is a single long conceptual piece that can be thought as a derivative / sound musical approach to the concept of askesis, I do not mean aescetism but interior activity or communication of the soul and the will whic…
The Subliminal Relation Between Planets (Live in Archiaro)
"Performed and recorded live in Archiaro (Catanzaro, Italy), The Subliminal Relation Between Planets presents outstanding sensory-emotionally ecstatic droning textures with a great feeling of floating sensations. The concept perfectly fits the symbolical significant musical harmony of the spheres (Pythagorean Greek theory on mathematical principles). In this magic live and largely improvised performance built on synthesised sounds and electronic treatments, Andrea Marutti invites the audience to…
Sleepless Nights | Lysergic Mornings (MiniCDr 3")
"We welcome back the italian artist Andrea Marutti (also known under the Amon or Never Known aliases, head of the sadly defunct Afe Records label too). Andrea was the very first artist to have a 3″ on Taâlem, and that was exactly 18 years ago! Here he proposes a rather psychedelic yet dark and ambient journey in two parts." - Jean-Marc Boucher"Sleepless Nights | Lysergic Mornings is particularly important both for Taâlem and me, because it comes exactly 18 years after my Traces 94-95, which on D…

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.
