They say: "Contemporary synthesizer sounds illustrating wide open space activities, environment and research."We say: Panoramic proto-techno underwater-electro library dynamite.
One of the hardest pulls on the seminal Coloursound, Open Space Motion (Underscores) isn't just regarded as one of the best releases from library-funk overlord Klaus Weiss. It's one of the very best library records ever.
As cult as it gets when it comes to library music, the Klaus Weiss sound was built on top of sometime…

A wild, science fiction-themed library LP by French composer Bernard Fèvre. Released in 1977, Fèvre imagines a far future populated by space-age electronics and lush, vivid melody.
*In process of stocking* "Cosmos 2043 (released in 1977) is best known for “Earth Message,” which was sampled in “Got Glint” by The Chemical Brothers. The cover is a rather naïve drawing that I drew myself because I have little talent there. I like the idea of abstraction in my work: “Skeeze” and “Weekee Way” are word…
For this "Library Vol. 1 / Espaces Urbains", we have gathered around this theme Parisian and French composers, subtractive jansenists obsessed by a certain idea of electronic and electroacoustic music, film music and illustration... the one that is made by turning potentiometers, manipulating waveforms, inventing oneself as a multi-instrumentalist and often as a home-studio wizard.A passionate, referenced and inspired machine song that often involves the computer only at the end of the chain, al…
Thanks to the brilliant debut “Night of the Living Dead” (1968), director and screenwriter George Romero is considered the creator of the ‘modern zombie’, a metaphor for the profoundly consumerist and capitalist society we live in, that was perfectly shown years later in “Dawn of the Dead” (1978); this movie was distributed in Italy as “Zombi”, with a different editing made by Dario Argento and a soundtrack once again composed by legendary Goblin.
“Zombi” is a very varied album where the electr…
Like Gerardo Iacoucci (already celebrated twice by Intervallo with Simbolismo Psichedelico and the new Industria N.1), Narassa – real name Sandro Brugnolini – is back in our catalogue with another gem: his second release on the legendary Rome-based label Rotary, which came out after the amazing Tensione dinamica. Guerra e angoscia was born as the fifth installment of seven and, like the previous album (which was recorded with the collaboration of label boss Amedeo Tommasi, the mind behind every …
*Strictly limited edition on 180gr. audiophile vinyl.* Get ready to warp drive on the Disco Segreta spaceship ! This time we pay tribute to the overlooked work of italian musician Luciano Zanetti. Still relatively unknown to most, he was born in Lecco, where he graduated in violin and piano at the local Conservatorio, but then focused on acoustic and electric guitar, spending most of his life as a musician and teacher.
The only recorded evidences ever published by Zanetti are incidentally just …
*200 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* 'Our ERR REC Library collection has finally returned for the third edition!
After dwelling in Urban Spaces (Vol.1) and discovering Science & Technology (Vol.2), we have the pleasure of announcing ERR REC Library Vol. 3-Wild Life/Vie sauvage.
This time around we have decided to turn our attention towards all things natural—the great green beyond, wild animals in their natural habitat, the bio-diversity that we (humans, mostly) plunder relentles…
Creutzfeldt Jakobs is a strange instrumental pop band from Malmo, Sweden; their music is "inspired by old BBC-soundtracks and early 80´s balkan-synth scene, composed and recorded using old synths, tape decks and other forms of obsolete technology"; their songs talk about the history of the Soviet Union, with particular interest for the Perestroika-era. Well, something bizarre enough to make us fall in love immediately! "In the bright darkness" is a romantic concept album about the illusions, dr…
Evanescent lights in the night. Dirty cities. Cruel concrete buildings soaring in an ashen sky. On the paths of our imagination, dreams and fears intersect, generating accidents and strange mythologies of a near future. Cavern plays with the anguished fantasies of retro-futuristic sci-fi to compose deep and pulsating music that conveys a sense of agonizing wait. Here in the HDK headquarters we immediately fell in love with Cavern's music and decided to publish a cassette anthology entitled "Mon…
Reissue of the first album by German-born composer Gershon Kingsley. Originally released by Audio Fidelity in the late '60s, this record introduced him -- previously known for his Moog concertos at Carnegie Hall -- to the record buying public. Kingsley is one of the original Moog pioneers, well known for his collaborations with French maestro Jean-Jacques Perrey & as composer of the famous '72 hit 'Popcorn.' This album features the original 'Popcorn' as well as other Kingsley originals such as '…
Psych LP from 1968 by the Love Machine, “Electronic Music to Blow Your Mind By!!!” – and trust me, it can be done – on the Design label. One of the harder-to-find exploito-psych albums with an absolutely psychedelic cover. Like all these studio cash-in albums, you need to approach this one in the right state of mind, and by that I mean altered. But the great thing about these budget albums is that someone behind the controls seems to be trying out all the latest psychedelic effects – stereo pann…
Since the true identity of this sinister masked electronic keyboard villain was revealed in Jean-Jacques Perrey's recent autobiography, the Mr. Ondioline EP has become a desirable record amongst collectors of early electronics. As a controversial figure amongst the early musique concrete pioneers due to his painstaking ambition to put popular melody into edited tape music, this debut release from 1960 hears Mr. Ondioline showcasing Perrey's Ondioline electronic keyboard (and synth precursor) …

** Edition of 500 copies ** Sequel to the mythical RCA LP “The Feed-back”, the legendary insane amalgam of avant-improvisation and motorik Krautrock-influenced beats that understandably has become one of the most collectable ‘Library Music’ related LPs ever issued. In 1971 ‘Il Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza’ returned to the studio to record a sequel. This is that record. For reasons unknown Niente was never originally issued but one listen will convince that not only is it the sequel…
2019 Small Repress. The first release by Transversales, a French label based in Paris founded by Sebastien Rosat and Jonathan Fitoussi, is the original soundtrack of the film Rock, composed in 1982 by Bernard Parmegiani (1927-2013).

The work of Parmegiani, a virtuoso…
*2022 stock* Trauma is the 1993 film by Dario Argento and one of two films he directed in the USA (The other being Two Evil Eyes) it stars Asia Argento and is a typically flamboyant Giallo from Argento featuring his trademark dizzying camerawork and gruesome over the top deaths. The score by Maestro Pino Donaggio (Carrie, Don’t Look Now & Body Double) who delivered a beautiful, nuanced & lush orchestral score which is absolutely outstanding.
*2022 stock* The Squadra Antigangsters soundtrack is one of the most unusual and atypical entries in the Goblin canon. Even the most dedicated fans of the group could be excused for not recognizing this album as a Goblin outing: the brash theatrics and heaviness that dominated the likes of Suspiria and Roller are totally absent, replaced by a slick, often jazzy sound that is overtly disco-influenced. The most disco-oriented of the cuts are "The Whip" and "The Sound of Money," both being vocal nu…
Tip! Following on from last December’s sold out “Scarred For Life Volume One” CD and the subsequent clamour for a vinyl version, here we bring you a second volume of TV themes for the shows that might have been, or actually never were. An unashamedly hauntological deep dive into an alternative 70s/80’s where our viewing reality was slightly warped. Gauzy memories of our early interactions with the TV, long buried, but remaining in the periphery of our childhood memories... The SFL Volume One tea…
Tip! Phil Heeks delivers a stunning homage to ‘70s BBC LPs and vintage soundtrack compilations in this debut record from The British Stereo Collective. Although the Mystery Fields album cover has the look and feel of a BBC Radiophonic Workshop release, the album itself is a wider nod to various TV theme compilations that Phil grew up with in the 1970s and early 1980s, including the classic Geoff Love releases and the BBC themes and sound effects albums. What comes across most is the love and aff…
Elytheria lies in ruins! Cities are being deserted as people flee in panic from the undead force that rose in the southern kingdom.

October 30, 1961 at 11:30 a.m. (Moscow time) is unleashed in Mitjusicha Bay, island of Novaya Zemlya, the most powerful hydrogen bomb ever built.

* Limited to 200 copies Pro-dubbed solid yellow cassette + 28 pages booklet * Happy Halloween! With the fourth chapter of this project we experience the classic formula of “scary tales” like in many horror movies of the 80s! Short and terrifying stories, in the best tradition of exploitation.

* Limited Edition to 200 copies This is the soundtrack of the omonymous adventure published in “Proteus” Magazine (U.K.) in year 1986. * In the elder days, beyond the ancient forest of Regnad, the evil Sorcerer Kruglach built for himself a mighty fortress of stone. He retreated into this, to experiment with dark and terrible enchantments, and a fear fell upon the land. The people were afflicted with plague and pestilence; animals and children vanished from their homes at dead of night; and th…
Your host for this dungeon is that cheerful mercantile dwarf, Marcelanius the Fair. And fair he is, if you are fair with him. Those who try to cheat him find he swings a mean war hammer. After purchasing an old mirror (which proved to be the entrance to many separate planes of existence), he saw a chance to make some money off current dungeon-delving craze and developed his Looking Glass Dungeon (no cracks about Alice in Wonderland)". Thus in 1978 the adventure "Beyond the silvered pane", a mod…
** 2LP. Limited Blue Vinyl edition ** A reputed classical violinist and music teacher on the one hand, a curious jazz cat on the other. A business man and control freak, but an artist and free spirit as well. Still, rather little is known about René Costy. Small wonder: the Belgian musician and composer was in many, if not all, respects a singular man. The lure of international show business was wasted on him and consequently, his name has remained a well-kept secret. But cream always rises to…
A few months after the success of "The cave of the lost talisman", here's “The curse of the ancient abbey”, the second chapter of a trilogy by this little, treacherous dungeon-synther humanoid with dog's face. As usual, dungeon-pop music with a lot of analogue synths and 16-bit flavor!
