Original copy of Maurizio Marsico's 1982 second release as Monofonic Orchestra on Italian Records, one of the most, bizarre, original and enjoyable releases of Italian avant synth wave.

 

"Awesome mutated avant synth wave into quasi-R.I.O. of an exceedingly ZNR-like sort. What Monofonic Orchestra share with Hector Zazou and Joseph Racaille's ZNR (specifically their antically eccentric Barricade 3 album) is a propensity for wedding Satie-esque piano-led delicacy with with sudden surges of giddy, circus-y avant electropop. Just beautiful."
