Assassinio Al Cimitero Etrusco

Il Pianeta d'Acqua
In May 1980 the Italian Radio and Television, RAI, put on air on the TV national network a program on the water, a very hot topic. The proposal to RAI of that really interesting topic came by the talented director of documentaries Carlo Alberto Pine…

A Fistful of Dollars / Per un Pugno di Dollari

The Laboratory
2013 marked the 25th anniversary of Idea Fire Company, the duo of Scott Foust and Karla Borecky based in Amherst, Massachusetts. Right before the end of the year The Laboratory EP was recorded. Two tracks of icy synth work, at times sort of reminisce…
