Born in Rome in 1965, Nimh (Giuseppe Verticchio), computer programmer, starts to play electronic music in 1994. In 1996 he moves in Koh Samui, Thailand, where he lives about one year.
During this period he starts to know and love oriental traditional music, so he begins to collect various ethnic instruments and to use them in his CDs. Starting from 2001 he realized many CDs under the name of "Nimh".His music combines a wide spectrum of influences, he has recorded and released many works of different nature containing elements of experimental music, ambient, dark-ambient, industrial, electronic, isolationism, ritual-ethnic music. After some CD-Rs available only in limited edition, since 2004 Nimh published a lot of official CDs and vinyls by labels such as Silentes, Malignant, Eibon, Amplexus, Synästhesie Schallplatten, alternating solo works with side projects (Hall of Mirrors, Maribor…) and collaborations with other artists. The most important collaborations include Maurizio Bianchi/M.B., Mauthausen Orchestra/Pierpaolo Zoppo, Andrea Marutti/Amon, Aube, Nefelheim, Amir Baghiri.

ENG: Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh) is a brilliant Italian underground musician specialised in organic / visceral ambient tales. He is notably known for his collaboration with Maurizio Bianchi and modern experimental electronic artists (Nefelheim, Baghiri from Italy...). He released more than 10 albums (between 2001 & 2007, including collaborative projects). His charged, orchestrated abstract universe features dynamic musical motifs (from acoustic percussions, exotic instruments to e-guitar) superposed on electronic dronescapes. His work is now called ambient-electronic-ethnic-experimental music.
Day Before Us is an acoustic micro-tonal ambient project formed in 2010. The musical signature is turned to solemn soundscaping ritualism, dada-esque hypnopedies and soundtracky ambiences. The content is sometimes sustained by digital field recordings. All tracks are recorded live. The main sources of inspiration come from odd literature, ghostly presence, angelology, cinematic poetry and the magical realism. Day Before Us means the everlasting power of ancient time which saves us from the amnesia of everyday life.
