Maht Hilda
Singer-songwriter Her music degree in London and her classical education melt into a personal sound that rings true, unconventional but believable.
Ethnically confused singer-songwriter, Maht Hilda belongs to many places: she was born in Milan, with Uruguayan roots, and raised in a German speaking environment in the Italian Alps. Reminiscing of an experimental indie-pop, alternative Nordic music scene, Maht Hilda’s songs, where singing is at one with music and music is at one with lyrics, transport you away and get you immersed in meaning and feeling through uncountable landscapes as places of human existence.
Last week, live for the first time with Sally Bumps 🤍 thank you Waag BZ for having us!
I had a chat with the kindest reporter, Rainer Hilpold, from SÜDTIROL1 Radio and after 4PM TODAY you’ll be able to hear some of what lies behind my EP and the journey to get there on their programme “Backstage” 🥲
-> and since it’s going to be in German…
Heute ab 16 Uhr auf Radio SÜDTIROL1 dank ihres Programms „Backstage“ werdet ihr etwas mehr zu meiner Musik und meiner Reise zum EP erfahren ❤️ tune in!
And since this is a huge achievement for me, I’m gonna cry in the snow coz today it snows too. Bye. 🥹
My debut EP is officially out and with it a music video!
None of it would have happened without the one and only Alessandro Casagni who produced and mixed my songs with enviable skill and who brought so many new ideas to the arrangements, but ESPECIALLY for being there for me during this whole challenging process 🥹
Thank yous go also to Merlo Recording Studio for having us and allowing us to record in the perfect setting. Big thank you to The Crows' Nest Studios for mastering the tracks, to Arianna Candioli and Laora Kula for creating its beautiful cover art and to Lorenzo Taddei for recording the guitars for Hiding Place.
For what concerns Hiding Place’s music video, I have everything to thank to Fabio Rubini who masterfully created a visual reality of what I had envisioned during the writing process, as well as Elisa Lecle' Studio for allowing me to wear her most beautiful and ethereal costumes.
There are many more people who supported me during the creation of this project and for whom I cannot express enough my deep gratitude ❤️

Hiding Place is a throwback to less troubled times. It’s where we felt safe, an escape, a fantasy… maybe it’s real or maybe not, but it belongs just to ourselves and that is what matters.
Cover art by Arianna Candioli and Laora Kula 🤍
On Friday 25th of November the last two songs of my EP will finally be here.
“Hiding Place” and “Ceaseless” are two more slices of an undeserved cake we’ve all had to taste during the last couple years. It’s two more ways of perceiving loneliness and isolation, but under completely different circumstances. Stay tuned to find out more 🤍

• Look upon him now
And take him by the hand
In tears we all may drown
We failed him there and then
We left him standing
All alone that day
When judgment came •
We make mistakes. We repeat in cycles.
But somebody will always be affected by our neglect.

It’s a story of abandonment. Of a person in search of unfindable guidance. It’s a story of regret by who should have been there.
WHEN JUDGMENT CAME is only two days away 🤍
Cover art by Arianna Candioli & Laora Kula
Time has come to set foot into our new timeline: slices of broken lives, each with a different story to tell.
CREATURES, the new EP, is here to show them to all of you and here is step 2/4:
WHEN JUDGMENT CAME, out this Friday.
🤍
Regressing into a state of complete loss of direction: it’s a cynic lens on a dystopian reality. It’s a slice of what isolation and lack of social interaction have felt like. It’s Creatures and from midday there’ll be a guide to help you get through the toughest of journeys.
Lyric video linked in bio 🤍
It is time, Creatures is OUT NOW! 🤍

What if you woke up and didn’t recognise yourself.
Stuck inside, you changed. We all did.
Our identity? Forgotten.
We’re just here, existing.
We’re just creatures.
It is only a few hours away now ⏳

Creatures will be yours on Friday 🤍📻
My biggest project is coming up and I’ll finally be able to share it with you all very soon 🥲 but until Friday you can take your guesses 💚
Showing other people my music has been a journey of growth and trust. Opening up my deepest joys, fears, thoughts and made up stories for everybody to hear (and judge!)... but nothing equals the sensation of seeing a little seed, a tiny note on the pentagram, become a complex pattern of roots - and a never truly finished piece.
What a gift it is to have music in my life and people to share it with 🙏🏻🎶✨
Thank you all so much for the support and for sharing yesterday’s evening with me, it was magical to perform live again 🤟🏻✨
Save the date 🤟🏻
and I are going to play an acoustic set right in the heart of the Alps 🌲 expect some original music and atmospheric rearrangements... ready?
See you thereee 🥰
Next week I’ll be playing at Kultur on Tour Festival! 🎶
After more than a year since my last live performance I’ll be finally showing you some original music for the first time evaaa 🙊
You can catch me at 9PM on Sunday 15th in Waltherplatz Bozen (IT) - concert starts at 7PM 🥰

TONIGHT at 8:30 PM (it) Rai Südtirol Radio Freier Fall is featuring my song in a broadcast to celebrate International Women’s day!!!🌻

(+two little articles by Headliner aka Südtiroler Tageszeitung) 🖤
“Over The Hill” is two weeks old and I couldn’t be more grateful for the support I have received from all of you 🖤
Here’s a beautiful painting by the incredibly talented artist Buhga Art created as a visual representation of the song.
I’d also like to thank Fabio Nappi, for writing this review on the Corriere dell'Alto Adige insert of Corriere della Sera!
Here's the lyrics for the curious ones 🌚
Over The Hill 🌿
There lies a village that hides
Over the hill and right by the tide
Sometimes you’ll maybe find
A print or a trace like a flicker of light
Home, home, is it something on its own?
Where are you now, where are you now...
There lies a lady in white
Dressed for a man who never arrived
She sat on top of the hill
And still to this day you may hear her cry
Home, home, can I find you on my own?
Where are you now, where are you now...
Though tried no one can find
Where they have gone or where they reside
Sometimes I see a light
From over the hill and right by the tide
Home, home, if it’s there and if you know...
I put together a little behind the scenes video of the filming of 'Over The Hill' with an instrumental version of the song as background 👇🏻
Coming from a time that doesn't exist anymore, it makes me even more melancholic to go back to those moments of creation. Remembering and smiling, like an old lady 👵🏻

Some of the people who helped bring this project to life 🖤
I want to thank Ernesto Cunietti and Iaia Zung for creating and performing a choreography which draws from different styles so seamlessly and with such grace.
Again, I want to thank Fabio Rubini Video whose visuals couldn’t have captured more accurately what I had in mind.
I also want to thank Samuel Campbell for helping me polish the lyrics and for supporting me during the song’s production.
Another big thank you goes to Marco Zung for the patience put into digitalising my signature logo.
And last but not least: a huge thank you to all those who supported me along the way and made me believe it was possible 🌞 ... you know who you are 😏
Nothing compares to working with somebody who combines incredible artistic mindset and intuition with patience and professionalism.
So lucky was I to work on the video for “Over The Hill” with Fabio Rubini Video 🎥
I was stunned by his skills: everything you see in the video he filmed by himself. And without his video this project wouldn’t simply be the same.
