Lost Tape - 1980
Abdou El Omari was born in 1945 in Tafraout, south of Agadir -- a village suspended between the pink granite peaks of the Anti-Atlas and the waves of the Atlantic. A landscape already musical in itself. He grew up in the dry mountain light, surrounded by the rhythms of nature and Berber's culture. Very little is known about the man -- a veil of mystery still surrounds his life, only deepening the fascination. In the 1970s, as Morocco was transforming, Abdou El Omari shaped a sound of his own -- …

LP version. This album is a tribute to the person and spirit of John Coltrane.

Erotica 70
Plush shag carpeting, jazz flutes, analogue synths, funk grooves, exotica, and sultry, Italian-style vocalising: Erotica 70 is the new album from Larry Manteca, known for their inventive, tongue-in-cheek reimaginings of classic Italian soundtrack aesthetics. This time around, the Milanese collective sets its sights on the distinct sonic landscape of 1970s commedia sexy—a film genre that, for better or worse, defined an era and fed richly into the cinematic education of Larry Manteca’s members.

Several Years Later
People Skills - the long running project of Philadelphia's Jesse Dewlow - has spent close to two decades tuned to that lower, stranger frequency, and Several Years Later may be the fullest transmission he has yet let out of the room. Since the mid 2000s, Dewlow has worked at the seam where a song comes apart into weather. Repetitive guitar figures, idle tape phenomena, sound residue, voices sunk far beneath the surface - materials gathered under the sign of his Heresy Museum and set loose in sha…
