Filigrana – Season 1
Filigrana – Season 1 is a concept album set against the vast and quiet backdrop of North Dakota. At its heart is the story of Ethan and Ruth, two extraordinary friends whose lives intersect in a deep, contrasting bond.
Ethan, of Native American heritage, is deeply connected to his dual cultural identity and the spirit of his ancestors. Ruth, on the other hand, comes from a criminal family on the city’s outskirts, and her path is marked by detachment from her origins, in search of something redemptive. Their lives are intertwined between identity, escape and resistance.
The album blends modern jazz with cinematic soundscapes, creating a sonic journey that feels like the soundtrack to an unwritten film—rich, introspective, and emotionally charged. Each track unfolds a new layer of their world, shaped by longing, rebellion, and belonging.
Band:

Mixed and mastered by Luca Fareri

Mauro’s sound is very American and truly compelling. His guitar playing isn’t predictable or an end in itself; he’s searching for melody, atmosphere, and an emotion to convey to the listener.

The Lost Boys
The Lost Boys is a concept album that tells a fragmented yet deeply connected story: thirteen boys, in thirteen different cities, each experiencing an encounter and a farewell on the very same day. Each track opens a window into a single life, capturing a fleeting moment where fate reveals itself—gently or brutally—leaving a permanent mark.
The album weaves cinematic atmospheres, layered soundscapes, and contrasting emotions, with each piece forming a chapter in a collective yet intimate narrative.

Mid by Midwest
Mid by Midwest is my second album – a deep and introspective concept work that explores themes of isolation, solitude, and the desire to disappear from everyday life.
It’s a personal journey, a spiritual search translated into a fusion of cinematic music, jazz, and country influences.
The sound is wide, layered, and emotional — a sonic landscape designed to immerse the listener in a world suspended between reality and self-reflection.
