Holy Similaun is an Italian musician and sound designer & engineer currently based in Treviso, Italy.

Its work sonically portrays a constant feeling of powerlessness, focusing on heavy cinematics, minimal-inspired compositions, physical modelling synthesis and non-linear time manipulations, bringing its unique perspective on internal-external human meltdowns.

After its Aphex Twin-approved debut record “En To Pan” and the sophomore album “Ansatz”, Holy Similaun returns, in collaboration with Archipel, with “Arcaskathel” and “Radicor al flort, espert on’ill il erb, aor Raetia”.

H—S also previously collaborated with Carhartt, Slam Jam and Spazio Maiocchi, on audiovisuals projects such as Zoë McPherson’s SFX “XquisiteForce.AV” at 2021’s CTM Festival and Rest Now!’s remake of Die Hard’s soundtrack and played alongside renowned contemporary artists like Abadir, Chevel, Dis Fig, Flora Yin Wong, Furtherset, Giant Swan, Kangding Ray, Lotic, Mana, Maxwell Sterling, MCMLXXXV, Plaid, Renick Bell, Shelley Parker, Soho Rezanejad & Varg2TM.
