Italian guitarist and composer whose work on DeBaser is described as rooted in American primitive guitar and experimental minimalism. Releases include Standing Waters (Boring Machines) and The Maadi Sessions (Backwards).

Plays guitar, harmonica, piano and hurdy-gurdy (ghironda). Collaborated with cellist Matteo Bennici and Lucia Violetta Gasti (Lux). Releases on labels Boring Machines and Backwards.

Reviews on DeBaser present Maurizio Abate as an experimental acoustic guitarist/composer rooted in the American primitive tradition. Standing Waters highlights sparse, meditative pieces with hurdy-gurdy, harmonica and cello. The Maadi Sessions explores Mediterranean and Egyptian-inspired, psychedelic minimalism with subtle electronics.

For:Listeners of experimental acoustic guitar, fans of American primitive and minimalist music, and those who like Mediterranean/psychedelic instrumental albums.

 "Standing Waters" is a work of inner research: an active acquiescence in a process of spiritual growth that is accompanied by breathing exercises dictated by the beats of the time structures drawn by Abate.

 A new approach to the instrument (the guitar, obviously) and composition with the valid support of minimal and never invasive electronics, used functionally to expand the sounds and strengthen the echo of those images in constant movement amidst the crowds of Cairo's streets.
