Baby Huey Story
*2026 repress* This is the only solo album by American soul singer James "Baby Huey" Ramey. He died at the age of 26 while recording his solo debut, and the album was finished and released posthumously. A quarter century after its release, The Baby Huey Story went on to become a cult classic among soul musicians and fans. Its single "Hard Times" has been sampled many times by a lot of artists and was covered by John Legend and the Roots in 2010 for the album Wake Up!
Tunis Hotel Stereo
In the years after independence, Tunisia made an unlikely bet: tourism. Beach resorts rose along the coast, each one trying to outshine the next, and each one needing a band to entertain their guests. A whole generation of musicians grew up on those hotel stages - sharing bills with James Brown, Claude François and the Mingus Dynasty - and what came out of it was a small revolution. Funk played on Tunisian instruments. Disco with an oud in it. Reggae carried back from the island of Kerkennah. A …
Marrakech / La Luz Del Fin Del Mundo
We return to the domestic scene with one of the most coveted items for Spanish record collectors. All sorts of stories circulate about this record: some claim to have seen it decades ago at a fair, while others recount how a fellow collector managed to snag a copy in the early days of the internet. The truth is that those who can boast of having the original on their shelf can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
A true rara avis recorded by Expresion in 1974 for the Musimar label, this legend…
交響組曲 もののけ姫 = Princess Mononoke Symphonic Suite
Princess Mononoke (1997) is set in a mythic late-medieval Japan of iron foundries and forest gods. The young prince Ashitaka, cursed while killing a boar god maddened by hatred, travels west and finds himself caught between the people stripping the forest and the wolf-raised girl San who defends it, a story Hayao Miyazaki refuses to resolve into simple sides. Joe Hisaishi's music met that scale with his grandest and grimmest writing for Miyazaki to that point.
The film score, recorded with the T…
Kiki's Delivery Service
2026 Stock. Kiki's Delivery Service (1989), drawn from Eiko Kadono's children's novel, follows a thirteen-year-old witch who leaves home on the night of a full moon, settles in a European-looking seaside town with her cat Jiji, and turns the one thing she can do, fly, into a delivery business. It was the first Studio Ghibli film given an official release in the United States, carrying Hayao Miyazaki's unforced storytelling to an audience that had seen little like it.
The score is by Joe Hisaishi…

Salò, or The 120 Days Of Sodom
The first time on any format for Pier Paolo Pasolini's controversial 1975 vision of the Marquis De Sade's 120 Days Of Sodom, featuring beautiful and discordant classical compositions, in stark contrast to the shocking and cruel events unfolding onscreen. Three weeks before the scandalous release of "Salò, or The 120 Days Of Sodom", Pasolini was brutally murdered in Ostia, Italy. In the wake of the tragedy, legendary composer Ennio Morricone wrote 'Addio a Pier Paolo Pasolini' (Goodbye to Pier Pa…

Hodori Rocks: Uncanny New Wave Sound From The 88 Olympic Land
The 1980s for Korea began with “Seúl, Corea,” and the promise of hosting the next Olympic Games brought a sense of hope even amid political instability. That optimism also spread to Korea’s arts and culture, including the gayo pop scene, which was recovering after the 1975 marijuana scandal and the restrictive “gayo purification movement.” A key symbol of renewal was Cho Yong-pil’s single “Short Hair” (단발머리), which felt like a sign that the 1970s were over—and that mood influenced Korean pop mus…
Jacques Tati Swing !
"Watching a movie by Tati is a surprising experience; in his films, sound and music speak more than do words, overtaking the conventional discourse – and boredom – of adulthood. Hulot remains silent, or mumbles. Tati knows all about the noises of the modern world: beeps, rings, crackles, pneumatic drill, cars, mechanical, electrical and rubbery sounds, the high heels of secretaries and typewriters, factory noises, creaking doors, sighing chairs, machines and technical machines, franglais, vacuum…
Savana Selvaggia

Crafted in his own Cat & Fox Studio in Rome, these …
