Sexphonie
Highly inventive library kraut / psych album related to Eulenspygel. Originally released in 1975, “Sexphonie” offers a mix of acid-rock, hard-psych, polit-rock and progressive / folky sounds with some eastern influences. Great studio production and outstanding guitar playing courtesy of Teflon Fonfara (who once blew up Camel’s PA system with his tape and delay guitar effects!). Tyll was formed when Teflon was approached by Kerston Records with the intention of releasing a krautrock album. …
Bershukor: A Retrospective of Hits by a Malaysian Pop Yeh Yeh Le
The legendary Adnan Othman has long been a driving force in the Malaysian rock scene. As early as the 1960s his groundbreaking songs in the style known as "pop yeh yeh" (rock and roll sung in Malay) were attracting fans across Malaysia and Singapore. He has since gained many fans around the globe due to a renewed interest in rock music from Southeast Asia. Othman made his first recordings in Singapore in the early 1960s, when he was invited to record with highly popular backing band The Rhythm B…

Silicon Chip
"So, who knew that Basil Kirchin - the ‘father of ambient music’ and a big influence on Brian Eno and Nurse With Wound - also recorded some freaky electro and disco zingers?! Patently Trunk did, and now cough up these tiny wonders from the pioneering artist behind seminal slabs such as Abstractions Of The Industrial North and Quantum. Far as we can tell, with thanks to Google and YouTube user Bernie Dolman, who claims to play bass on the track, Silicon Chip was written and produced by Kirchin, a…
A Hatchet For The Honeymoon (Il Rosso Segno Della Follia)
Great horror work from Sante Maria Romitelli, the stunning score to this psychological thriller (also known as 'Il Rosso Segno Della Follia') directed by the legendary Mario Bava, the granddaddy of Italian horror films.– served up in a very nice mix of styles! Some of the tunes here share a spare, tense feel with other Italian composers of the time – while others veer a bit more towards the darker modes of late 60s American scoring – especially in the way the woodwinds are used, almost in an a…
Filmmusik 2
LP version. Bureau B present part two of their Filmmusik double release. In 1975, Conrad Schnitzler recorded various pieces of music to accompany films which had yet to be made. Fittingly, he labelled this collection of songs Filmmusik. Only one of the tracks - "Gute Fahrt" ("Nice Journey") - would ultimately be paired with a film, now traceable on the internet for all to see. The music is included on Part 1 of Bureau B's Filmmusik double release (BB 244CD/LP, 2016), erroneously entitled "02/198…
Highlights of Vortex
The brainchild of visual artist Jordan Belson and electronics polymath Henry Jacobs, the Vortex Experiments ran from 1957 to 1960, first at San Francisco’s Morrison Planetarium and later at the SF Museum of Art. The very name of these events announced their aim: a swirling totality of sensory experience. Around Belson’s richly-colored visuals – making use of the planetarium’s entire dome and featuring luminous, sharply geometric imagery projected through an array of devices – Jacobs ringed a sy…
Un Uomo da Rispettare
Un Uomo Da Rispettare translates to "A Man to Respect," which can easily be said of Ennio Morricone himself – the unparalleled maestro of the soundtrack. This 1972 crime film stars Kirk Douglas as a master safecracker at a crossroads in his life, emerging from prison yet tempted by one last big job. Morricone builds the main theme around Cicci Santucci's flugelhorn as riveting leitmotifs reprise amidst variations of noir-jazz abstraction to frame the composer's grand vision. A strident, tw…

Cosmic Sounds
Absolutely essential Cosmic Psych masterpiece now back on Vinyl taken from Analogue Masters and like you’ve never heard it before… The Zodiac: Cosmic Sounds was an album released on the ELEKTRA label in August 1967 in the U.K. It was heavily played by John Peel on his Perfumed Garden shows, where he used it as a basis for a competition (He had been sent a copy by Clive Selwood, the then head of Elektra’s London office and later to become Peel’s manager). The LP was extremely popular with Perfume…
What A Way To Die
The archetype for the ’60s-era girl group was etched indelibly into stone, like a commandment: three pretty girls with matching outfits and bouffant hairdos would sing, with musical backing supplied by a bunch of guys standing in the shadows. The Quatro sisters shattered that archetype forever with the Pleasure Seekers, an all-girl teenage rock & roll group who played all the instruments themselves and were fully capable of wiping the stage with any male band that crossed their path.The Quatro g…
A Trip Down The Sunset Strip
The Leathercoated Minds’ 1967 release A Trip Down the Sunset Strip is a one-of-a-kind artifact of the psychedelic era. Originally conceived as an Exploitation item, it nonetheless emerged as an enduring musical statement, thanks to the talents of those involved, particularly then-unknown Oklahoma-bred guitarist J.J. Cale. As its title suggests, A Trip Down the Sunset Strip was originally concocted by noted pop producer Snuff Garrett (known for his hitmaking ‘60s work with the likes of B…

Impact - Synthesized Sound And Music
Looks like this is the last title of the year folks - and what a year it’s been !!! - enjoy the break for the next few weeks, sit back and spend some quality time with the Creel Pones on hand, or go back and check out some of the ones you’ve missed. I’m told that Mr. P.C. C.P. will resume his regular schedule halfway into January 2007 with a pretty ridiculous set of new reproductions. Until then... Here we have a 1971 Vedette library LP by Armando Sciascia recorded at the "3D - Electronic Music …

Complex and hard jazz rhythmics made with an arsenal of phased and distorted electronic fx, keyboards (fender rhodes, harpsichord, psychedelic hammond and Piero Umiliani style warped moog) with …
