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…
In the Forest
Edition of 300. Second Editions presents In The Forest by Karl Fousek. Serving as a score for David Hartt's film of the same name about the Habitat Puerto Rico project by Moshe Safdie, In The Forest finds Fousek at his most focused and controlled. These five pieces/chapters move with precision and intent. With subtlety and curiosity. Shrouded in ambiguity. And while Fousek works much more restrained here than on previous releases, by paying attention to every detail, he creates an intriguing wor…
To The Land Of No Return
Edition of 500. Best known to funk / groove collectors for his 70's library efforts (Freezing Point, The Pop World Of Yann Tregger, Schifters, Catchy, Ducks & Drakes) on such cult labels as L'Illustration Musicale, MTS or Montparnasse 2000 or his late funky disco output via projects like Major Symphony or M.B.T. Soul; french trumpet player / composer /arranger Yann Tregger also devoted time and efforts to delve into electronic sound abstraction when needed. Based around the possibilities of the …
Night Kaledoscope
Alec Cheer's Night Kaleidescope is an incredible modern techno-based score to an underground psychedelic detective vampire indie drama. So there. There is little history here as this is a new release, but this is simply an amazing modern score to a 2017 film one may never have heard about (directed by Grant McPhee). What sets this score apart is its clinical post-modern feel, with influences including Mica, John Carpenter, Brian Eno, Goblin, Fabio Frizzi, even whispers of the 1980s, as well as a…
Daedalus
Music from the future, created in 1986 (!) Musique Plastique (Visible Cloaks, Pedro) rescue a nearly lost soundtrack to a Belgian avant-theatrical work from the 80s. For fans of Nuno Canavarro, Roberto Musci and Vito Ricci. Like the wings Daedalus crafted for his son Icarus, John Gilbert Colman’s score for sampler, voice and chamber orchestra almost melted away completely, disappearing into the tides of time. The album originally served as the score to an avant-garde production of the Greek myt…
Cybernetic Circus
Vinilisssimo present a reissue of Giampiero Boneschi's Cybernetic Circus, originally released in 1973. Giampiero Boneschi is a complete musician: he composes, arranges, directs, acts as a producer, and also plays the piano. But he is also an adventurous artist who has managed to combine his work with vocalists, jazz or even easy listening music with other highly experimental projects. His name is familiar to library music fans, and his recordings for Music Scene, CAM, or Fonit are some of the mo…
Princess of Dawn - Soundtracks
Of all the artists to fall under the sweeping banner of Kosmische / Krautrock - a movement which has benefited from continuous attention from the reissue market since the 1980’s, Georg Deuter remains among the most unacknowledged and under-appreciated. The reasons remain slightly behind reach - the likely consequence of his association with the New Age movement across the 1970’s and 80’s, the lingering effects of stigmas which were later applied that movement’s efforts, and the reissue ma…
Binsy
Outstanding archival work from Cabiria Records here, presented in the form of an album of gloomy electronic stylings and haunting musical landscapes by Miryam Bordoni, one of few Italian female artists working in the field of experimental and library musics, and also associated with Egisto Macchi and Ennio Morricone of Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza. Originally released in a miniscule private edition, these undercover electronic studio sessions made under her experimental alter ego B…
Quatermass And The Pit - Electronic Music Cues
This vinyl release features electronic cues from Quatermass and the Pit, a fascinating insight into the beginnings of electronic music and its development through the horror/sci-fi film genres. The full soundtrack to the film, a tense and atmospheric score for full orchestra, is available on a separate release.Originally a BBC serial, Quatermass and the Pit (released in the United States as Five Million Years To Earth) was made by Hammer Film Productions in 1967 as a sequel to their earlier film…
Quatermass and the Pit
Originally a BBC serial, Quatermass and the Pit (released in the United States as Five Million Years To Earth) was made by Hammer Film Productions in 1967 as a sequel to their earlier films The Quatermass Experiment and Quatermass 2. The film, hailed as an early classic of the sci-fi genre, begins when excavating workers discover five million year old skeletal remains in the London Underground tunnels, followed by a metallic object they believe to be an unexploded bomb. When rocket scientist…
Fantastic World
Italian reissue label enters the fray as Orbeatize makes a powerful first move by looking back to the 80s and the wild experimentation of jazz drummer Armando Bertozzi. Having already made a distinctive entrance with two previous albums, Bertozzi's final masterstroke was Fantastic World, a daring body of work originally released in 1985. Rich with African percussion and wayward synthesis, this is far from a traditional record, and its hefty second hand price tag makes it more than worthy …
Electronic Music To Blow Your Mind By
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…
