The Scary of Sixty-First
Eli Keszler’s score meets at the confluence between the visceral electro-acoustic Giallo style and brooding acoustic drones, which feature his abstract and textural percussion playing he has explored in his solo music
America Giovane N. 2
Killer. **First official reissue ever, certified holy-grail. Edition of 300 copies, black vinyl 180gr. Comes with Obi, and original liner notes by Jonny Trunk** At the end of the '60s in Italy - but also abroad, especially in France and England - a very particular trend began to spread, that one known as 'Library music' or 'sonorization': as suggested by its name, those were real music libraries intended for the accompaniment of audiovisual productions such as television programs, advertisements…
ERR REC Library Vol.1 Espaces Urbains
For this "Library Vol. 1 / Espaces Urbains", we have gathered around this theme Parisian and French composers, subtractive jansenists obsessed by a certain idea of electronic and electroacoustic music, film music and illustration... the one that is made by turning potentiometers, manipulating waveforms, inventing oneself as a multi-instrumentalist and often as a home-studio wizard.A passionate, referenced and inspired machine song that often involves the computer only at the end of the chain, al…
Percussioni In Crescendo
Killer. Edition of 300 copies, black vinyl 180gr.

Since they were created in total artistic freedom condition, they are often difficul…

Il gatto a nove code
* 50th anniversary edition, completely rebuilt and mastered by Chris Malone from first-generation master tapes* The film is about a newspaper reporter and a retired, blind journalist who try to solve a series of killings connected to a pharmaceutical company’s top-secret experimental research projects; in doing so they become targets of the killer.  Ennio Morricone can be considered the inventor of the giallo sound, as he was the inventor of the Spaghetti Western sound or the political-cinema so…

Among his many incarnations, in the ea…
Expectancy
** 2LP. Limited Blue Vinyl edition ** A reputed classical violinist and music teacher on the one hand, a curious jazz cat on the other. A business man and control freak, but an artist and free spirit as well.  Still, rather little is known about René Costy. Small wonder: the Belgian musician and composer was in many, if not all, respects a singular man. The lure of international show business was wasted on him and consequently, his name has remained a well-kept secret.  But cream always rises to…
Musique Électronique Pour La Scène Et L'image 1976 - 1992
* Comes with OBI in a gatefold sleeve with printed innersleeves containing interview and linernotes * Described by Swiss press as an “inventive genius marked by total unpredictability,", Roger Baudet’s music has preserved its freshness and spontaneity. Provoking feelings of surprise, anxiety and subjugation, he ends up bewitching you completely through his bizarre non-conformity. The oddity of the sounds is a choice of heterogeneity: the works gathered, although coming from one person, have litt…

Rendez-Vous (LP)
Licensed in 1975 by Gemelli, Rendez Vous is possibly an holy grail in Bruno Nicolai long-running career as a composer.
