Milano Undiscovered - Early 80s Electronic Disco Experiments
*Special discounted pricing. 2026 repress* 40 years after the beginnings of the Italo disco movement 'Milano Undiscovered' leads us to discover the first ferments of the Milanese post-punk dance scene. In the early 80's future producers began to veer towards a form of dance music not yet defined, what once seemed like an experimental form, today sounds like a cornerstone for future development in the club scene of key city as Berlin, Paris, Stockholm and Amsterdam.
Italo disco was first mistreat…
Italia New Wave
2025 repress on yellow vinyl. What exactly happened in the Italian underground/post punk scene of the '80s, is not entirely clear. Therefore, this collection of 13 incredible tunes helps track down the feeling and focuses on the blurry images of a period that was mixing influences from the UK/USA scenes with a more "national" approach to new music developments. The damage began in 1977 when a series of urban/suburban musical agitators, whether skilled or complete amateurs, decided to embrace ins…
Italia Synthetica 1981-1985
Brand new version on white vinyl ! No CD available this time ! Italia Synthetica 1981-1985 represents the musical mutation that occurred after the post-punk hangover gave way to more frigid emotional shores, in-line with the synth-wave moment that was sweeping Europe and the white cliffs of Albion. This scene flourished in Italy between 1981-1985, and the musicians that came out of it are still revered today (particularly in the US). Robotic rhythms and intuitions that, besides sharing common gr…
Still Life
First time on vinyl. Originally released on cassette in the spring of 1985, together with the eigth issue of Komakino fanzine -- included here in its original format. Relatively well-known names coexist with bands that lasted only a season. Still Life was and remains a half hour of pure abstraction. An intense and precious post-punk overdose! Features Karnak, Limbo, Janitor Of Lunacy, Panoramics, and De Stijl.
Afterglow
Special discounted pricing. Originally released on cassette in the winter of 1984, together with the 7th issue of Komakino fanzine—included here in its original format—Afterglow is more than a compilation: it’s a cultural time capsule, a tangible distillation of the hopes, noise, and fragile alliances of Italy’s burgeoning post-punk and new wave underground. Across 14 tracks from 8 groups, the album reveals the very spirit of the Afterglow operation. Some bands had already found their way into t…
The Other Side of Futurism
First time on vinyl. Originally released on cassette in the spring of 1984 together with the fifth issue of Tribal Cabaret fanzine -- included here in its original format. This is an invaluable document focusing on the obscure side of the '80s Italian post-punk scene. A composite picture drawn by a bunch of different and often under recorded groups from various Italian regions and cities. All together they contribute to defining a prominently dark yet vivid soundscape based on different approach…
The Missing Boys - Selection Of Sardinian Wave 1980-1989
*2026 stock* “The Missing Boys” is a film born from the need to tell the story of the emergence and affirmation of a forgotten music scene, like much of the youth movement that spread in metropolitan areas as well as in the provinces more than forty years ago, dealing with the same critical issues of everywhere. It’s a story of mostly unknown bands, who from Sardinia, especially from Cagliari and Sassari, interrupt the blissful isolation of an island, only apparently distant from that revolution…
Allegato Sonoro - Amen This Is Religgion N° 2
This 1984 release marks the beginning of the intense split-tape activity that characterized and distinguished the Amen fanzine. From Alessandria, Viridanse debut here with 4 tracks that already prefigure the sound of a band destined to leave their mark on the Italian New Wave scene. On the B side, the debut of The Art of Waiting from Bari, 6 tracks of pure Gothic Rock from one of the cult bands of this music scene.
Mono Tono
*Special discounted pricing. 2026 stock* Skiantos had a void in their minds, and that was all they needed to revolutionize Italian music. They imported demented rock to Italy, drawing on an all-American, nonsensical movement (from Frank Zappa to Devo), fueled by the explosion of English punk. Before Skiantos, the only demented aspects of Italian songwriting had been the perverse (and perverted) obscenities of Squallor, who, while hilarious (sometimes even from a purely compositional standpoint),…
Kinotto!
*Special discounted pricing. 2026 stock* The third album by this combo from Bologna is the apotheosis of their histrionic verve. Directed in studio by Italian progressive rock luminary, Paolo Tofani, Kinotto was released in 1979, and as Freak Antoni himself declared, the album was closer to new wave than previous efforts and its best-known track, "Mi Piaccion Le Sbarbine", was soon on heavy rotation. With Kinotto came also the artistic consecration of Skiantos, who went from being a cult band to…
Inascoltable
*Special discounted pricing. 2026 stock* In our opinion, what hinders, deceives, and puts traditional musicians off track is that they know how to play, they have a whole set of notions that always push them in the direction of composing in a traditional manner. We'd like to see what happens when you're illiterate, but with a passion for music and the desire to engage with the rock legends we'd internalized, devoured over all those years." (from "Inascoltable, the book," edited by Oderso Rubini …

*2026 stock* Originally attached to the new version of the book "Skiantos una storia come questa non c'era stata mai prima e non ci sarà mai più" by Gianluca Morozzi & Lorenzo "Lerry" Arabia, now available wiithout the book.
C’est Disco
C'est disco is the first studio album by the Italian band Rats. It was released in 1981 by Italian Records and is a record strongly inspired by the wave and dark scene of that period. In 2014 the record was reissued in a vinyl version with the addition of a bonus CD featuring the complete album plus the song Tattoo, initially discarded from the album's tracklist and included in a compilation. The band's line-up featured vocalist Claudia Lloyd on vocals, and on guitar the only member present in t…
Tenera è la Notte
Finally available: the second and previously unreleased album by iconic Italian post-punk outfit Rats. Born in 1979 as Sextons, the band renamed themselves to Rats in 1980 and released their classic debut C'est Disco in 1981, a visceral fusion of downtown art-punk abandon with the mechanized, ascetic throb of European minimal wave. Set to release in 1982 on the cult label Italian Records, Tenera E La Notte never made it into the world due to disputes with the company. Now, nearly four decades la…
