GIULIANO SORGINI – Percussioni In Crescendo (Leo Records)
Deadly Italian lib full of crazy crime jazz and dark percussive jerks. "Frettoloso", "Maligno", "Clessidra", "The Turf", the Roy Budd harpsychord- like "Survival", the killer loop of "Monotonia", or "Torpedo" evolve between concrete percussions, dark 60s soundtrack sound and hammond funk. Rare!
Ultra rare single taken from the scarce JANCO NILOVIC Funky Tramway project ! "Sitting Bull" is one of the best tune from the LP, sounding like a PLACEBO-esque jazz funk tune, with a slight cosmic synth production. So cool to have this killer on a 45!
One of the first IM release (fifth one), with this time the excellent Mister Johnny Hawkworth. Numerous dope swingin' London style jerk cuts the guy is known for on this one: "Out Front", "Change Of Mind", "Stop Looking", "Data Day", "Craker Joe", or "Without Delay" to name half of it!
ALESSANDRO ALESSANDRONI – Sifflons En Harmonie (SGdP)
Rare Saint Germain release by Maestro Alessandroni, responsible for all the "Whistling solos" on the Morricone soundtracks! Different whistling melodies along minimalistic instrumentals. Very fresh and nice!
Rare Musax release between french bossa, killer jazz funk (check the first track "L'Oeuf Dur") and more easy sounds. The guy who plays on fender rhodes is on point most of the time. Essential to any libraries die-hard collectors !
More Blade Runner style atmospheric synth music by the mysterious Mister Sherylee. Tons of loops and waves to grab. "L'Aube Des Temps", "Trompette Neptune", the perfect hip hop sample, "Iceberg", etc... Check the soundclip for a better view !
Monster release on the very in demand french label led by Jacky Giordano. The whole record is composed of menacing proto electro tunes."Start On", "Anachronik System", "Hard Game", "Sad Flanger", "Milky Ballet", "Telescript Suite"... some dark synth vibes backing the blip loops, creating a very deep journey into the disturbed mind of the musician! There's a light scratch on track 5 and 6 of Bside, causing a very thin click. Otherwise pretty clean wax.
One the most rare and unknown LP on the Musax label! Featuring compositions by Roger DAVY, JP DECERF and others, you have here some incredible piece of music. Listen to the instant cosmic electro classics "Watery Stars" and "Flashing Point", the disco "Dear Ramsey", "Light Hearted Tune", the very De Roubaix piano & electronics of "Proud Waves", "Storm Bird Flight"... Never seen on sale, don't hesitate too long!
Mad Cecil Leuter delivery on the very collectible TVM Chappell sub-division, a must if you're after early electronic and contemporary music. Reverbed or echoed sounds, weird loops... listen to "Crazy Sounds N°3" as a perfect example of what you can expect from this record.
More killer blips and squirks melodies by the one and only Mister Leuter aka Roger Roger. The use here of electroacoustic instruments is pushed to the limit by the genius of this guy, creating an infernal musical journey.
Rare release and a must have if you're after french jazz, with the special appearance of the mythical Manhattan Trio on the whole B-side! "Kisses From Bahia", "Sexy Pop"... With also the punchy beat of "Treat Me Well" by Pierre Sellin. Light background noises.
PETER BONELLO / CECIL LEUTER – Electronic Tricks (IM)
One of the most insane early electronic record ever commited! The potential and genius of this record is infinite. The electroacoustic experimentations are here combined with super phat FXed drumbreaks, percussions, and more generaly pop rhythm. Mad beats absolutly everywhere. As usual the IM production is brillant, the sound is very phat and loud. Listen to the long extracts: it's hard to believe this record was made almost 40 years ago!!
Ultra rare Jacky Giordano LP on the label of modern rhythm. The french master of keyboards brings here some dope jazz funk tunes. Listen to "Interrogation Point", the superb "Project Problematic", "Cloudy Night", "Cat And Mouse", "Latest News", "Owls Night"... This guy has a sooo personnal groovy touch...!
Rare Musax release between french bossa, killer jazz funk (check the first track "L'Oeuf Dur") and more easy sounds. The guy who plays on fender rhodes is on point most of the time. Essential to any libraries die-hard collectors !
