Sarah Davachi’s ‘All My Circles Run’ is a meditative journey through sustained drones and harmonic resonance, blending analog synths, strings, and organ into a deeply immersive ambient experience."

Directed by Pasquale Festa Campanile, Adulterio all’italiana (Adultery Italian Style) is a biting comedy that targets bourgeois hypocrisy and the paradoxes of marriage in 1960s Italian society. Starring Ugo Tognazzi and Catherine Spaak, the film follows a couple in the midst of a full-blown marital crisis, navigating infidelity, subtle acts of revenge, and a battle of the sexes portrayed with intelligence and irony. Adding rhythm and color to this emotional battleground is Armando Trovajoli, who…

“Il faro in capo al mondo” (The Light at the Edge of the World) is a 1971 film directed by Kevin Billington, based on a novel by Jules Verne. It’s a dark, solitary adventure set on a remote island off Cape Horn, where a group of pirates led by the ruthless Jonathan Kongre (played by Yul Brynner) takes over a lighthouse to cause shipwrecks and plunder the remains. Kirk Douglas stars as the last surviving lighthouse keeper, caught in a grueling battle between man and nature, civilization and savag…

The film 7 Times 7, directed by Michele Lupo in 1968, is a brilliant comedy with heist movie overtones, crafted in a very British style but with a strong Italian identity. The international cast (including Gastone Moschin, Lionel Stander, and Raimondo Vianello) plays a group of inmates who break out of prison solely to rob the Bank of England... and then comfortably return to their cells, using prison as the perfect alibi. In this lighthearted and clever setting, the soundtrack by Armando Trovaj…

Rich musical history of Yugoslavia reveals a long-lasting love for the music of Latin America.

A long-lost masterpiece of Yugoslavian jazz-funk and disco finally returns! Originally released in 1979 on the iconic Jugoton label, YU Disko Expres by Igor Savin and Orkestar Stanka Selaka is a rare gem—an electrifying fusion of jazz, funk, electronic music, and traditional folk elements. Decades ahead of its time, this album remains a strikingly modern and danceable exploration of sound, seamlessly blending synthesizers with tight horn arrangements and deep, infectious grooves. Igor Savin, one…

"Indépendance Cha Cha” was an historic song, not only because it immortalized Congo’s independence in its lyrics, but also because it was the first single published by a Congolese-owned record label. Joseph Kabasele’s label Surboum African Jazz indeed paved the way for several Congolese musicians to become record publishers. It resulted in the 1960s in a plethora of newly found Kinshasa-based record labels, run by the biggest musicians of the time. With this new series “Les éditeurs congolais”, …

The evolution of Congolese popular music in the 1960s and 70s is generally classified into two major schools: African Jazz & OK Jazz. The main representatives of those schools are Joseph Kabasele alias Grand Kallé, founder of African Jazz, and Franco Luambo, co-founder of O.K. Jazz. Two temperaments and ambiances, one commonly referred to as ‘fiesta’, the other as ‘odemba’, both seeking their own sublimity or ideal. For the very first time, a compilation brings together explicitly the main prota…

*200 copies limited edition* After Mirthrandir, Lift and Easter Island, we continue bringing you the cream of the crop from U.S. Prog Classics, with the reissue of ID’s 1977 album Where Are We Going. In this case, you can guess the music from the band’s name, a regression into the depths of the unconscious (Freud’s antecedent term for ID in the structure of the cunning invention called ‘psyche’) via an interminable sonic evocation. The highlights of the album are the 2 long parts of the homonymo…

"The Crippled Flower was a post-punk band from Düsseldorf - and they arrived late. However, unlike many young, unsuspecting, hairsprayed hopefuls from that time, in 1985 they could sense that the end of their era was approaching. They knew too much to want to take the world by storm. They were four individualists searching their own way. Each of the band members only found their calling after the time that they had spent together – but that's exactly what makes The Crippled Flower still seem rea…

Visionary Walter Maioli and electronic innovator John Zandijik’s 1980s late-night sessions fuse ancient flutes and cutting-edge technology, creating a cosmic soundscape that bridges ethnomusicology, psychedelia, and electronic experimentation.

Soul Media, led by Jiro Inagaki, played a part in the development of jazz rock in Japan. This work, "Memory Lane" recorded in 1980, was the final work under the same name. Inagaki said about this work, "We tried to create this work while predicting the fate of fusion music" and it is true that the sound is completely different from ordinary fusion. The mellow and emotional "Memory Lane" the stormy and refreshing "I Will Give You Samba" and the groovy and edgy "Take My Hand". The sound that was c…

2025 much needed repress!! Since its formation in 1969, Soul Media had been advocating a fusion of jazz and rock. The next step along that line was this album, In the Groove, recorded in 1973. The sharpness of jazz is brought to the forefront, with rock melting in to give it an edge, and funk injected to imbue it with power and resilience. The result was a strong, sophisticated, and simply "cool music" that could not be categorized within existing genres such as jazz rock, jazz funk, or fusion. …

Last year, we commemorated the 50th anniversary of Nick Drake’s untimely passing—yet his music remains as vital as ever. His influence stretches far and wide, inspiring artists across generations, from Liz Phair and Radiohead’s Philip Selway to Let’s Eat Grandma and Fontaines D.C., all of whom paid tribute on 2023’s The Endless Coloured Ways: The Songs of Nick Drake. But while covers keep his spirit alive, nothing compares to hearing the man himself. And now, for the first time, we’re getting a …

merging from tragedy, Kaleidon's sole 1973 album "Free Love" has evolved from obscure Italian jazz-rock artifact to revered cult masterpiece. The project began as keyboardist Stefano Sabatini's poignant response to the 1972 car accident that claimed two members of his previous band Free Love - a catastrophe that could have ended his musical journey. Instead, Sabatini assembled a new quartet to create what would become one of progressive jazz-rock's most emotionally charged instrumental statement…
