Formed in 1967 amid the sun-soaked vibes of Orange County, California, this elusive artifact was originally released in minuscule quantities on Radish Records—a obscure private press label that barely scratched the surface of the era's underground scene.

The Belgian artist was also famous for being the only permanent member of the group Brainticket and the main promoter of its creativity, often renewed with the contribution of exotic instruments.

Library music operated by contract: titles that described a setting, tracks short enough to cut and paste, music made fast and under budget. Ugo Busoni's Valvole, originally released in 1975 on the Nuova Idea label, followed those rules on paper - and then proceeded to ignore most of them in practice. Reissued for the first time on vinyl by Musica Per Immagini, in a limited edition of 500 copies with new artwork, it is one of the more genuinely peculiar records to emerge from that world.
The tra…

Somewhere between the editing suites of Cinecittà and the ethnographic archives of a parallel universe RAI documentary department, two of Italy's most prolific sonic chameleons shed their studio pseudonyms lik…
In 1985, Gary Mundy of Ramleh sent out an invitation. He asked artists in the orbit of his label Broken Flag to respond to a single concept: morality. Define it, refuse it, occupy it, destroy it. The results arrived on a cassette, catalogue number BF41, pressed in a run that circulated through the postal networks that kept the underground alive in those years. Most of it was never heard outside those networks. The title was not ironic. It was a provocation with genuine stakes.
Morality was alway…
**300 copies** By the time the 1980s rolled around, most of the old guard had either hung up their saxophones or sold their souls to the synthesizer in ways that made you want to weep into your Campari. Not Sandro Brugnolini. The man who'd spent the late '50s channeling Miles Davis through the smoke-filled clubs of Rome with the Modern Jazz Gang, who'd scored jungle goddesses and naked panthers for Ruggero Deodato, who'd descended into the psych-fuzz inferno of Underground and Overground when th…

2024 Repress. Eastern-infused outstanding album by German trombonist Albert Mangelsdorff – recording here in 1964, but sounding years ahead of his time, with an amazing a blend of jazz and Asian styles! The album's one of Mangelsdorff's best ever – a set of rhythmic tunes that seem clearly informed by the work of Ornette and Joe Harriott, but also based along eastern themes picked up by the group on a tour of the Orient – and performed by a sharp-edged quintet that includes Heinz Sauer on tenor …
