Elettroformule
**Edition of 300 copies, black vinyl 180gr. Comes with Obi, and original liner notes by Jonny Trunk** This is a masterful blend of spectrally-processed sounds, electronics, Musique Concrete, minimalistic passages and harder-hitting experimentations, all held together under the leadership of the revered composer Giuliano Sorgini – making this album's one of the greatest Italian library of the 60-70s. At the end of the '60s in Italy - but also abroad, especially in France and England - a very part…
Jeunes Filles Impudiques
This long-lost Parisian skin flick Jeunes Filles Impudiques (aka, Schoolgirl Hitchhikers) marks a particularly vulnerable period in the career of one of the most underrated and misunderstood directors to emerge from the rising smoke of the 1968 Parisian social explosion. From a director with early links with the Paris underground, the Letterists, the surrealists, improv theatre, and the free-press comes the reclaimed audio tracks from one of his rarest celluloid moments -- but let's not confuse …
Elettroencefalogramma
**300 copies** In the widening realms of uncovered European Outsider Art and maligned musical enigmas, the composer most commonly known as A.R. Luciani continues to exist on the extreme outer limits. Despite his unwaning commitment to the Italian avant garde and extensive production for the film industry, his work remains undocumented in almost all the excitable documentaries, books and retrospectives on the subject made in recent years. Trust Andy Votel, Sean Canty and Doug Shipton to put that …
Sounds From the Far Space
**300 copies** Recorded by Giuliano Sorgini at the beginning of the Seventies, Sounds From the Far Space is an unreleased set of tracks inspired by the immensity of a sky full of stars, intended to be used for some television documentaries, while the competition between United States and Soviet Union was high and the stars were getting closer and closer.Sounds From the Far Space is an album about travelling without moving in space, with the dark and dreamy moods of the composer. Musica Per Immag…
Eroina
Last copies **150 copies, clear vinyl** There are still so many treasures to be discovered out there, but once you find a gem like this you can definitely put the research on hold for a little while and give it a deep listen. Recorded by the Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza at Fono Roma in 1971, Eroina is a series of haunting improvisations - each one inspired by the effects of a different drug - made of whirling electronic glitches, skronky horns, pounded piano, funky drums and weird …
Percussioni ed Effetti + Agonia Della Civiltà
**Special discounted bundle** You may have noticed, over the last few years, a slow trickle of remarkable, genre defiant works emerging from the small, Milan based imprint, Intervallo. Largely falling under the banner of Library Music, the label’s effort have illuminated this fascinating context as an artistic Trojan horse - compositions of profound worth, often explicitly experimental and avant-garde, created within the shadows of the commercial world. After brief period of silence, the label r…
Agonia della civiltà
**300 copies** The great fame of Antonino Riccardo Luciani, a musician and composer from Palermo, is due above all to his work for television and to one in particular, namely the music for the Almanacco del giorno dopo (Almanac of the Coming Day), a famous program that has been broadcast on the first channel of RAI - Italian Television for over twenty years. Chanson Balladée, this is the title, is for many people an indelible memory of a television now disappeared and radically changed, for whic…
Percussioni ed effetti
**300 copies** As often happens in the case of library music albums, even in Leonardo Marletta's one and only record in his career, the titles serve above all as sound indications, as if they were listening guides. In Percussioni ed effetti (Percussion and Effects) we find a vast array of atmospheres, well explained and illustrated by titles such as Violenza (Violence), Guerriglia (Guerrilla Warfare), Allucinazioni (Hallucinations), Compulsioni (Compulsions), Battimenti (Beats), Sospensioni (Sus…
Psycorama
If conceivable, imagine a collaboration between Brian Eno and Aphex Twin, both in their ambient periods, recording stock music for an Italian Library music label. If so, then behold Psycorama!, a collection of experimental music used to soundtrack a series of films and documentaries produced by the Italian filmmaker Roberto Rossellini.Composed by Mario Nascimbene, a name synonymous with the golden age of Italian film music, a composer whose grandiose scores of the 1950s and 60s defined the very …
Seduzione coniugale
**500 copies** Sonor Music Editions is glad to announce the reissue of this previously unreleased soundtrack for the obscure drama movie from 1974 directed by Daniele Franco.

Comes with printed inner sleeve and spot gloss jacket.“When I composed and recorded the soundtrack for a reconceptualized Lucifer Rising a decade after the first abandoned attempt I drew on my own life experiences to tell the story in music evocative of the mythical Lucifer awakening…
La Classe Operaia Va In Paradiso
* Restocked, reduced price * Goodfellas present a reissue of Ennio Morricone's soundtrack for La Classe Operaia Va In Paradiso, originally released in 1971. La Classe Operaia Va in Paradiso was another strike for maestro Ennio Morricone, one of the most in-demand composers and arrangers of the time. Avant-garde and slo-funk - with scary fuzz and wah-wah guitars - collide on the track "Metamorfosi" and before you know it, you are in the same vertigo generated by Gruppo D'improvvisazione Nuova Con…

Bioritmi
First ever reissue for this ultra-rare Library lp from 1971. One of the strongest examples of Egisto Macchi's tactile and meditative approach to composition, an engrossing, intuitive refinement of the techniques and practice he honed over prior years with Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza. 'Bioritmi' breaks down to seven pieces making up a mesmerising voyage to the heart of modular composition and electronically processed percussions, looped up and effected with various early tape techn…
Soundtracks
"Malcolm Mooney passes the baton to Damo Suzuki for Soundtracks, a collection of film music featuring contributions from both vocalists. The dichotomy between the two singers is readily apparent: Suzuki's odd, strangulated vocals fit far more comfortably into the group's increasingly intricate and subtle sound, allowing for greater variation than that allowed by Mooney's stream-of-consciousness discourse." -- Jason Ankeny
