Mauro Remiddi is a composer, sound artist and performer working primarily with electronic music, exploring and experimenting with song format and voice texture.

His main project has been Porcelain Raft, releasing two albums with reknowned US label Secretly Canadian.
As Porcelain Raft he toured EU and US widely during 2010-19, headlining and supporting bands like Blonde Redhead, Beach House, M83 and many more.
Porcelaiin Raft’s music is been used in movies (The Collection, 2012 US) and TV series (Netflix’s Messiha and Fox’s Lucifer).

The same year in New York, Remiddi started a collaboration with film maker Derrick Belcham, performing for Belcham’s evening-length productions set in the sprawling 60,000 square-foot Knockdown Center in Brooklyn (Wilder Papers/2015,  Debut /2017, Fable /2018).

His sound installation ‘Callas In Wonderland’ was shown at the Engine Room international sound art exhibition in London (2019). 

In 2021 Remiddi wrote the music for the documentary ‘À la recherche du jardin des Finzi Contini’, commissioned by Arte’ France.
The same year Remiddi composed the music and sound design for a video installation dedicated to Simone Carella at MACRO (museum of modern art in Rome). 

In 2022 Remiddi finished the libretto and the music of his first opera ‘Moonbird’, a hybrid piece that blends cinema, opera and video art.
The opera (directed by Ra di Martino) was shown at the Museum of Modern Art of Bologna (MAMBO).
The live shows were performed the same year at Palaexpo Mattatoio in Rome, at the Milano TRIENNALE and at the Apollo Theatre in Lecce.

His latest project is called Stay Over, a performance for dancer and electroacoustic music, born from a residency with choreographer Amandine Vighi.
Stay Over explores the concepts of dreams, trance and rest as a tool for liberation. In 2024 the show was premiered at Festival-des-Preanbules (Avignon, France).

His current works explore field recordings, audio essay, electroacoustic composition and voice manipulation, embracing non-linear storytelling.
 
Remiddi teaches sound design for media at John Cabot University in Rome.
