A quietly stunning meditation on sound and space, Let Night Come On Bells End The Day sees Sarah Davachi sculpting slow, luminous improvisations for Mellotron and organ. Each piece unfolds with patient restraint, revealing rich overtone complexity and a dreamlike sense of presence-minimalism at its most intimate and immersive
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…
Directed by Sergio Leone, “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” is the final chapter in the legendary “Dollars Trilogy” and one of the most iconic films in cinema history. Clint Eastwood, Lee Van Cleef, and Eli Wallach form an unforgettable triangle set against the backdrop of a grim, dusty, and almost surreal American Civil War. The film is epic, lyrical, and grotesque all at once—but what elevates it to true legend is the immortal soundtrack by Ennio Morricone. The legendary main theme is one of th…
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…
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…
*2025 stock* Planet Ilunga continues its mission to uncover and highlight the overlooked yet epic achievements in the world of Congolese rumba. This time to tell the most spectacular story of all. This is the story of the creation of Surboum African Jazz, the first Congolese music label founded by a Congolese. Surboum African Jazz was owned and managed by the best singer of all time, Joseph Kabasele, alias Grand Kallé. The label's catalog during the period 1960–63 is largely dominated by Grand K…
"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”, …
*2025 stock* Incredible collection of classic Congolese music from Planet Ilunga specializing in this particular niche. Glorious guitar melodies, beautiful vocal harmonies, and infectious rumba grooves. Excellent curation and very cool thematic presentation, plus lots of great details given in the liner notes.
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.
Antonio Carlos Jobim’s first American album is a masterpiece of understated elegance, presenting a dozen songs that would become bossa nova standards. Despite claiming to be out of practice, Jobim’s sparse, single-hand piano style lets his flowing melodies shine. Claus Ogerman’s signature arrangements—airy flutes, brooding strings, and lush harmonies—enhance timeless gems like Desafinado, Corcovado, The Girl from Ipanema, and One Note Samba. A defining moment in bossa nova’s global ascent.

Two awesome Latin jazz-funk gems for the dance floor, blazing with the rich brass section and percussion. Both songs are taken from mega-rare Venezuelan LPs released in 1976. Reissued on a 45 for the first time.
*300 copies limited edition* In 2021 US label Helen Scarsdale Agency released Kleistwahr's 'Winter' album on vinyl in an edition of 300 now more or less sold out, while 'Music for Zeitgeist Fighters' preceded it by a few years on Egypt's Nashazphone imprint also as an LP limited to 300 and equally hard to find these days.

2025 stock Moonmadness was originally released in March 1976. It was their fourth album and the last to feature the band's original line-up (Latimer, Bardens, Ferguson, Ward). After the success of the tightly structured, instrumental The Snow Goose in 1975, the band added vocals to their music again. The tracks that comprised the album were conceived as a loose concept based on the individual personalities that made up Camel; Air Born about Andrew Latimer, Lunar Sea about Andy Ward, Chord Change…
