AQUARIUS Marcello Giombini (1928-2003) was an Italian sythesizer pioneer who started back in the '60s, and who also was involved in composing music scores. What we have here is a concept album dedicated to the signs of the zodiac and the music could not be more diverse. The elements that unite all the tunes are the entirely synthetic, yet warm analogue sounds and the surreal, spaced out atmospheres. Featuring intriguing melodies, harmony patterns and rhythm structures, the music's influences include a.o. baroque pop and soundscapes. This issue is highly recommended to fans of '70s synthesizer music. LP Forever Rec.

TOUCH AS MUCH A reissue of a great album, originally issued in 1977. Though there are guitars, drums, bass guitars and -though sparsely- vocals, the music here largely revolves around the synthesizer. The material features elements of pop and rock, but mainly early '70s soul and funk. Tangerine Dream's Edgar Froese or Klaus Schulze would certainly raise their hats to this project, in deep respect.

The music presented is a delicious electronic cocktail of a.o. easy listening, free jazz, exotica and cosmic atmospheres. Anyone who enjoys the electronic works of Pierre Henry, musique concrete, Stockhausen, or even Silver Apples, should give it a try.

For 'Electronic Hair Pieces' Garson rearranged and reinterpreted Galt McDermot's music for the late '60s tribal hippie-musical 'Hair' with highly enjoyable and somewhat mind boggling results.

Puccio Roelens (1919-1985) was an Italian composer, orchestra leader and pianist active from the mid 1940s to the time of his passing in 1985. You can easily place him in the "library music" category with his heavily rhythmical instrumental funk with a jazz/fusion edge. Layers upon layers of different rhythm patterns get shifted here and your body moves at full throttle to the sensual, steaming hot grooves. Signore Roelens moves through a bunch of related but still different styles where melody and rhythm become one stream of energy that rushes through your physics to make you swing eternally.

The Stringtronics take us on a journey from the dark city gorges of any North American metropolis where steaming hot funky and jazzy rhythms amalgamate and get clothed in a veil of lush string arrangement to the banks of the river Seine where painters draw portraits of tourists and people sit in the sun and relax to the typical chanson melodies full of melancholy but also joy of life. In there is a tinge of the 1950 exotica music showing up here and there through Latin grooves and some flimsy elements of rock shine through the whole soundscape as well. Originally released in 1972. Second edition on blue/yellow/splatter vinyl.

The album here is a 1974 effort of his band named BARRIGOZZI GROUP that takes a more pop oriented direction with elements of funk added. Especially those funk tunes have a hotter than hell expression and bring to mind muscle car rides through the hills of San Francisco while grooving along to the haunting lead harmonies created by flutes, lead guitar and brass section. You could easily think of any cool US gangster movie from those times and either see moving pictures of Clint Eastwood or Michael Douglas chasing criminals before your inner eye. The overall mood ranges from relaxed to rather simmering and peppy, just properly fitting as a soundtrack for old action movies. A rather colorful effort that will drive freaks of 1970s jazzrock and funk music wild.

POP ELECTRONIQUE NA 14 France seems to be the secret kingdom of electronic music, experimental music and movie soundtrack music also known as library music. Roger Roger (1911-1995), one of the most prolific composers and bandleaders in this field, took a turn on the progressive side of the rather fresh electronic sounds back in 1969 under the pseudonym Cecil Leuter. The album starts quite harmless with instrumental tunes that could be performed by a typical dancehall band of the day just with creepy electronic noises added to the entire picture. The further you get through the whole record the more crazy the performances get. Take a listen and trip through these strange lands of sound if you dare. The tracks are well performed and for this beautiful reissue everything has been well restored. Worth to be worshipped by 1960s underground freaks.

T'AIME LIBANAIS Roland Bocquet who created this album has been the keyboard player for the French rock band Catharsis from the late 1960s to 1977. 'Paradia' is a mostly instrumental record with a very lightweight expression. Melodies and rhythms are quite gentle but sometimes take the one or another dramatic twist and turn. Bocquet mixes samba, flamenco, European folk and classics, chanson and dreamy space pop to achieve a music actually easy to access but with a long - lasting effect on the listener. Latin music fans and lovers of rather fluffy electronics from the late 1970s will be the main target group for this album but also friends of obscure movie soundtracks from bands like GOBLIN shall lend an ear or two to 'Paradia', for there are a few tunes with a rather mysterious atmosphere.

CAESAR IN CAMERUN 02. HIGH MOON ENTERS HEAVEN 03. METASAMBA 04. CHIPMANIA 05. O QUEEN OF SABA 06. MEMORYMETROPOLIS Reissue of 1983 album. Easy listening melodies come in smaller doses here despite Walter Bachauer's (aka Clara Mondshine) fondness for the pop oriented side of the so called "Berlin School" electronics and the overall time in which he operated this project. Clara Mondshine was spaced out electronics far from the average radio sound with a clear progressive edge reaching into the avant-garde territory here and there. Cool harmonies appear and commit themselves to body heating polyrhythmic grooves. But right with the next tune this album takes a turn towards the darker sectors where it strides the mystical gates with picturesque lines of sparkling synthesizer notes or cold and majestic tunes. You will feel your blood freeze while listening to these songs. You will experience many different moods that all lead back to the classic 1970s cosmic and electronic music of Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze or Kraftwerk and Cluster.

PEPPER ROCK A fantastic album (from France, 1973) if you love black funk music from the dirty back roads of big American cities mixed with electric jazz and fusion rock that once was hot by the time it was initially developed out of the slowly fading free jazz of the later 1960s. Both directions join together on this record in an utterly captivating way making this album become a journey through landscapes of sound rather than a collection of musical pieces. But there is much more to experience here. Funny pop tunes as well as devastating dance tunes that make you spin around like mad and when Tonio Rubio and his band let their creativity discharge into these hypnotic funk tunes each listener will be grooving and moving.
