Histoire de Melody Nelson
Outside his native France, the view of Serge Gainsbourg was once of a one-hit wonder lothario. This has been slowly replaced by an awareness of how talented and innovative a songwriter he was. Gainsbourg was an eclectic, protean figure; a Dadaist, poète maudit, Pop-Artist, libertine and anti-hero. An icon and iconoclast.His masterpiece is arguably Histoire de Melody Nelson, an album suite combining many of his signature themes; sex, taboo, provocation, humour, exoticism and ultimately tragedy. C…

Island Visions
2020 marks 10 years since "Ocean Trippin’", the first Seahawks release, and "Island Visions" is the perfect distillation of the sounds, sights, textures and moods that Jon Tye and Pete Fowler have been exploring over the last decade. Sunrise to sunset condensed to two sides of an LP. The normal rules of space and time don’t apply here. From the grooves of Brian Bennett to the moog vibrations of Mike Vickers, the lush textures of Les Baxter to the experimental sounds of Delia Derbyshire and David…
Breath of Danger
"Breath of Danger" was originally released by Themes in 1974, and rounded up a killer ensemble cast of library legends including Alan Hawkshaw, Brian Bennett, Alan Parker, David Lindup, Kenny Salmon, Barry Morgan and Ray Cooper. There’s a widescreen vitality in all these tracks thanks to the driving rhythms, vibrant horn sections and blazing guitar work. It renders "Breath of Danger" - 45 years old - truly ageless.
The Hunter (Drama Suite) / Adventure Story
"The Hunter (Drama Suite) / Adventure Story" is a real library-head’s library album. Both sides are dripping with insidious grooves and dramatic spy-score themes, bursting with heavy guitars, swirling flutes, creeping piano-funk and drum breaks galore. Originally released by KPM in 1975, it’s clear that these library heroes were heavily influenced by the tough funk and street soul sonics emerging from the cutting edge Blaxploitation soundtracks.
Visual Impact
Arguably the single greatest album in KPM history. An ensemble piece of staggeringly heavy works from none other than Brian Bennett, John Scott, Steve Gray, Jim Lawless and Johnny Pearson. Originally released in 1976 but wonderfully timeless, Visual Impact is a rare example of a library record that’s genuinely great listen from start to finish.
Tea With Holger
Smith & Mudd were invited to contribute to KPM’s “Album Shorts” project. The results are predictably wonderful. In classic library record sleeve style, these tracks are collectively described as “Balearic themes including breezy soul, sun-dappled melodies, warm pianos and sweeping strings”. You want to hear this, right?
The Now Generation - Percussive Underscores
Full of synth funk, afro beats, exotica, leftfield madness, dance floor dynamite and all-around greatness, "The Now Generation - Percussive Underscores" is comfortably one of the very best library records, full stop.
75
Funky soul-jazz organist Caesar Frazier crafted superior Hammond funk. "75", his second LP, is a rare gem. It’s comfortably his greatest artistic statement. A taut, grooving set of expressive jazz-funk, it's a mixture of hard-driving originals, deeply beautiful slower numbers to vary the tempo and a couple of classy covers.
Japan
The first Be With foray into the archives of revered German library institution Selected Sound is one of our favourites on the label - the super in-demand Japan from Victor Cavini, originally released in 1983. Rare and sought-after for many years now, this is one of those cult library LPs that never turn up. With Daibutsu the giant Buddha of Kamakura’s presence gracing the hefty front cover, this is a record bursting with dope samples for adventurous producers: it’s koto-funk madness!

Downtown
Small restock - Amazing find! Very few original copies of this Library gem available! - Almost nothing is known about Lamberto Macchi’s lone LP, Downtown - released sometime during the early '80s - other than it is the creation of the son of legendary Italian composer and Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza member, Egisto Macchi, and that it contains contributions by the elder.Covering a vast range of territory, it was likely to have been conceived as a library LP, for use in television a…
Abarten Der Körperlichen Liebe
Rare find! - Real detective work was necessary until this amazing unreleased music production by Dieter Reith, Abarten Der KöLiebe (Degenerated Love) from 1970 showed up in the archive of a German porn movie company. In fact this music production was lost for 48 years and is totally unheard until now. You are the first one listening to this forgotten masterpiece by one of the most beloved German Jazz musicians in 2019.
Mr. Diabolicus - Mr. Mysterious
**CD version** Given his fascination with obscure and esoteric topics, an interest that lasted throughout his whole career as a composer of library music, Fabio Fabor must have been diabolic and mysterious for real. The Milan-born composer, who passed away in 2011, had always showcased a darker side compared to other fellow musicians of his era. A side that is well portrayed in works like the famous masterpiece “Pape Satan”, or “Satanas”, which is included in the very accessible “B 81” (Serie Us…
Dramatest 1974
**CD version** Absolute music composed for keys which sound is processed in order to obtain particular effects, timbre and soundscape. There would not be other words needed to describe “Dramatest”, a release of experimental library music published in 1974 by Fonovideo and signed by Oscar Rocchi (and his moniker Chiarosi) and Fabio Fabor. Rocchi, an excellent pianist and composer, had worked with heavy weights of Italian jazz such as Dino Piana e Oscar Valdambrini (on their amazing album Afrodite…
