Masoch Club Entertainment
Hammond organs swirl through sun-drenched compositions. Wah-wah guitars dance with bossa nova rhythms. Edda Dell'Orso's ethereal vocals drift over psychedelic instrumentals. This is Masoch Club Entertainment, one of the finest compilations ever issued by Plastic Records - a swinging assemblage of mod numbers, funky groovers, and jazzed-up instrumentals that collectively define the sound of Italian easy listening at its most sophisticated. Compiled by Dave Masoch with liner notes by Michael Myers…
Mondi Caldi Di Notte
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Before the psychedelic freakout, before the heavy riffs of Distortions, there was the sweat and shimmer of European nightlife - and Armando Sciascia was its house composer. Mondi Caldi Di Notte gathers twenty-four tracks from the mondo sexy documentaries that Sciascia scored in the early 1960s, drawing from the archives of his ow…
Exotic Themes For Films, Radio And TV
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. The name I Gres encodes its own membership roster: the G stands for organist Giorgio Carnini, the R for maestro Roberto Pregadio, the E for drummer Enzo Restuccia, and the S for guitarist Silvano Chimenti, the group's driving force and de facto leader. Together they formed one of the most sought-after studio ensembles in the Ital…
I Solisti Di Armando Trovajoli
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Circa 1950, four musicians orbiting the RAI orchestra in Rome had what they later described as "a brilliant idea": to name their group using the initials of their own names. From Maurizio Majorana (bass), Antonello Vannucchi (Hammond organ and piano), Roberto Podio (drums and percussion), and Carlo Pes (guitar) emerged "I Marc 4…
Morphine Mambo Jazz Club
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities. Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. What happens when you crack open the vaults of Britain's oldest music library and let the smoke drift in? Morphine Mambo Jazz Club answers that question with eighteen cuts of mid-century tension: music conceived in dimly-lit studios for purposes no one fully remembers, now resurrected as a document of a peculiarly British form o…
Kaleidoscopica
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Listen closely. That grinding, mechanical rhythm isn't a machine - it's a drum kit filtered through the imagination of a composer who's been asked to score "industry" and has decided to make it swing. This is library music at its most conceptually strange: music about work, about factories, about the texture of modern life, playe…
Stroboscopica Vol. 3
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. The Hammond organ holds a chord. The drummer waits. And then - a groove so immediate, so perfectly constructed, that it feels like it has always existed, just waiting to be discovered. This is the paradox of Italian library music: composed for anonymity, destined for something greater.
Twenty tracks from the shadow zone of Italia…
Stroboscopica
Lucky Restock - Limited Quantities Please note: these are original copies that may show minor sleeve wear due to long-term storage. The vinyl is in excellent condition. Call it psychedelic. Call it lounge. Call it beat, or jazz-funk, or something that doesn't have a name yet. The truth is, no single word captures what happens when four Italian studio musicians lock into a groove at 10 AM, knowing their work will soundtrack a car commercial, a crime drama, or a soft-core feature they'll never se…
Spectrum: Thrilling 60's Film Noir Themes
Lucky restock. Spectrum is not a compilation so much as a séance. Plastic Records has gathered sixteen tracks that collectively summon the nocturnal soul of an era when jazz, pop, and cinematic ambition collided in recording studios from London to Los Angeles, from Havana to Harlem. The title promises film noir themes, but the truth is more expansive: this is the sound of sophisticated menace distilled into three-minute doses, music that belongs equally to smoke-filled jazz clubs and Technicolor…
Piombo Rovente
Lucky restock. A Journey Into The 70's Italian Police! Screeching tyres on rain-slicked Roman cobblestones. A Fiat 131 careening through Trastevere at midnight. The dull thud of a silenced Beretta. And underneath it all, the relentless pulse of wah-wah guitar, pounding drums, and funky flute lines that refuse to let go.
Piombo Rovente captures the sonic DNA of Italy's most visceral cinematic era: the poliziottesco. These were films born from the "Years of Lead"—a nation caught between political …
Autumn 2021 / Autumn 2001
Autumn 2021 / Autumn 2001 is a split single pairing Los Angeles producer Free the Robots with the late Italian jazz pianist and electronic music pioneer Gianni Safred. The release juxtaposes Safred's original 1978 track, taken from the cult album Futuribile (The Life To Come), with a contemporary reimagining by Free the Robots, weaving retro-futuristic electronics and deep grooves into crisp, beat-heavy reinterpretation.

Exotic Percussion
Now joining the Jackpot Record’s ever-expanding collection of Martin Denny re-issues is the hypnotic “visual sound” of Exotic Percussion, which has not been on vinyl since its original release in 1961. His production on Exotic Percussion is ambitious, adventurous, and fascinatingly futuristic, especially when a tumbler with ice was still the preferred way to let loose. Xylophones and chimes swim from ear to ear; traditional jazz instrumentation collides with such musical oddities as boo bas, sha…
The Enchanted Sea
Long before Martin Denny started heading into outer space with his Moog work, he was keeping us just floating slightly above the ground with the sounds of the earth—and The Enchanted Sea is one of his most grounded and beautiful works. Unlike many of his other exotica records (which are filled with the sounds of the jungle, its wildlife, and the smell of tiki bar smoke) this one has the feeling of a tumbler full of ice, walking barefoot on a sandy beach in the twilight, while breathing in the sa…
Forbidden Island
There’s a reason why Martin Denny remains a cultural touchstone—his records are as earthly as they are from outer space. Forbidden Island was Denny’s third record, recorded after a nine-month residency in Hawaii. This era finds Denny just on the cusp of being a household name, a period where his records would shortly become certified Gold. Forbidden Island is a solidification of Denny being the King of the Exotica sound, where his recordings could illuminate just enough darkness across the Tiki …
Exotica
2025 stock This album at hand by prolific legend Martin Denny is the one which gave a name to an entire genre. Released for the first time in 1956, “Exotica” does have more than just a historical importance. The songs are all outstanding. Based on jazz and folk this is an early example of mind altering music , because the album sets you in a dreamy state with all its haunting melodies and the sound effects that remind of wild animals in the jungle trees. The rhythmical base is rooted in Latin mu…
Ritual Of The Savage
180 grams LP. Presented here is the cornerstone of the exotica genre: Les Baxter's' "The Ritual of the Savage". Originally released by Capitol in 1951 as a 10" LP containing eight tracks, it was reissued during the mid-late 50’s as a 12" LP with four additional tracks, which were recorded in 1955 and belong to the same sessions that produced the album Tamboo!. The Ritual of the Savage (whose title is a tribute to Stravinsky’s The Rites of Spring) marked a stylistic jumping point for Les Baxter, …
Other Worlds Other Sounds
Mexican band leader, pianist, and composer for television and films, Juan García Esquivel (1918-2002) is recognized today as one of the foremost exponents of a sophisticated style of largely instrumental music that combines elements of lounge music and jazz with Latin flavors. Sometimes labeled “The King of Space Age Pop” and “The Busby Berkeley of Cocktail Music”, Esquivel is regarded as a primary figure in the development of the late 1950s-early 1960s quirky instrumental pop that became known …
