*2024 stock* Daniele Cavallanti (sax) and Tiziano Tononi (drums), famous names in Italian jazz, in an unprecedented electro-acoustic quartet with two of the best names on the new scene, Michelangelo Flammia (electric bass) and Walter Donatiello (electric guitar). Music that combines Coltrane's jazz with the rock of Robert Fripp and Bill Bruford's King Crimson.
The unprecedented overlapping of sound layers that accommodate the happy melodies of Ermano Librasi's clarinet, between atmospheric intuitions and soft instrumental inlays, make this album a reflective and intense listen, colloquial and restless at the same time.

*100 copies limited edition. In process of stocking* Odd and fluid tape manipulations by Gonçalo F. Cardoso’s most bizarre moniker, Hannibal Chew III. Grabbing the deteriorated recordings left over from his 2017 trip to the island and letting his imagination and machines run free, the journey here is hectic: mud, rain, radio jingles, crickets, confusing conversations and random mall music resulting in an eternal looping impression from whatever was ingrained. A dream logic that doesn’t want to m…

** 2024 Stock. Digipack CD with 24 pages booklet inserted inside a gatefold cover **- quoting Dusted magazine "This is not a jazz album. This is the music of ritual.

* 300 copies, 180 gr black vinyl * Among the many ones who left their band to pursue a solo career in the '70s we find Ivano Fossati. In 1972 his group Delirium had become very popular, thanks to 'Jesahel,' the song they presented at the Sanremo Festival in February: it became a real chart-hit 45 RPM, a very unusual thing for a progressive rock band. But commercial success didn't stop Fossati from leaving Delirium and releasing in 1973 his debut album, under the name of Alberto Ivano Fossati - I…
