Il gatto a nove code
2025 much-needed repress. Black Vinyl.

4 Mosche di Velluto Grigio
Manic percussion, tense staccato strings, discordant piano riffs, and jazz-rock motifs – this is Il Maestro at his finest. 4 Mosche di Velluto Grigio (4 Flies on Grey Velvet) is the third and final part of Dario Argento's world famous cult, terror trilogy. Fear, according to Dario Argento, is hidden behind metaphorical, animal symbols that mirror degenerative urban decay, in other words a kind of mental zoo. Birds with crystal plumage, cats with nine tails, grey velvet flies, enough species to t…

Swing Ensemble
*2025 repress* Did someone say Summer? Sicily is what Cuba is to the Caribbean, sun, sea, easy and friendly people with lots of troubles! You won't find anything better around that identifies the summer more than this album by Enzo Randisi who at the beginning of the 80s put together a Swing Ensemble as a tribute to that "cheerful" movement of Jazz music.
But Enzo and his fellas just couldn't stay on track and put in the best that the alternative Palermo area could offer in that historical perio…

*2025 stock* Running a record label offers adiversified and challenging field of activity. This is particularly true when speaking of tiny independent re-issue labels where one, two or three guys have to take care of everything. Tracking down musicians, collecting their stories, writing the liner notes, creating the cover artwork, mastering the songs, promoting the release, communicating with pressing plants and distributors, and so on. Most of the tasks mean fun with the exception of one thing …
