NTS aired an episode dedicated to the music of Umberto on 4 July 2019. Umberto has been played over 10 times on NTS, first on 26 February 2014. Umberto's music has been featured on 12 episodes.

Umberto is a one-man band, that man being Matt Hill, live collaborator / touring member of Expo '70. While Expo '70 has proven to be especially adept at channeling the heavy kosmiche bliss of prime 1970s krautrock a la Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel, Umberto is equally savvy at conjuring the dark, suspenseful soundtrack-y sounds of Goblin and the like. With, some cosmic Klaus-y krauty-ness thrown in as well.
