I’m Cristiano Lo Mele, a multidisciplinary musician, producer and sound designer with more than two decades of experience creating, shaping and performing sound. Since 2004 I’ve run Il Garage Ermetico, a recording studio where I engineer, produce and arrange projects for artists across music, theatre and cinema. I’ve collaborated with groups and performers such as Perturbazione, Syria, Totò Zingaro and many others, weaving live and studio experiences into compelling soundscapes. Beyond the studio, I’ve managed a small independent label, contributed to live events and film/theatre scores, and worked on podcasts with Chora Media. Today I’m based in Rivoli, Italy, continuing to blend hands-on production, live sound, and creative design for a wide range of projects.
