The Holy Mountain O.S.T.
TIp! The Holy Mountain (1973) is considered Jodorowsky's definitive film; the music of the soundtrack is just as soundtrack is equally interesting, with musical styles ranging from primordial chants to sitar-based folk melodies, from full orchestral solids to more intimate symphonic arrangements, all a perfect accompaniment to the hallucinogenic climate of the film. The soundtrack features jazz musician Don Cherry.

Off the Record
LP version. Well-known as one-quarter of the "classic" Kraftwerk line-up, Karl Bartos' new album is an audio-visual sensation. Lost for many years, some of his early music has been re-conceived and re-contextualized in a thrilling modern setting. Here's the story: during Kraftwerk's heyday, Karl Bartos wrote -- off the record -- a secret acoustic diary. Based on his musical jottings (rhythms, riffs, hooks, sounds, chords, and melodies) this is what he has come up with today -- 12 brand-new, exci…

After the album Total Erasement (SR 366LP, 2014), that includes the more "professional" studio recordings of Digital Dance, Digital Dance 002 is the re-release of their last cassette tape, originally released in 1981, reflecting another side of their work and the beginnings of what was to come.
