Contrastate - Handbags & Dada (Fin de Siècle Media)


Label info: "The now defunct influential UK project played only a few live shows during their existence, but they put a lot of effort into making them something out of the ordinary. The third installment in our Contrastate series is a live CD which covers three different phases in the band's history from 1989 to their last ever performance in 2000. Tracks previously available on vinyl and cassette as well as one world premiere recording from Camden Palace in London."

Giorgio Gaslini - Rivelazioni di un Maniaco Sessuale... (Fin de Siècle Media)


Label info: "Giorgio Gaslini is a highly trained and world renowned musician, a maestro of not only composition but also of jazz and contemporary classical music. He is most well-known to Euro-genre hounds for his co-scoring of Dario Argento’s monumental giallo PROFONDO ROSSO (DEEP RED), together with the progressive rock giants Goblin.

The score for RIVELAZIONI DI UN MANIACO SESSUALE AL CAPO DELLA SQUADRA MOBILE (REVELATIONS OF A SEX MANIAC, PENETRATION) is a known favorite among the cadre of international afficionados of Italian cult-cinema, and for good reason; this is a very skillful and satisfying work – which also features splendid vocal performances by the one and only Edda Dell’Orso. Supporting the effect of the killer’s anthem is a series of dissonant suspense cues and each of these contribute to the underlying psychological stress inherent to the narrative. Counterbalancing the score’s darker portions are a series of lighter excursions into the realms of lounge and easy instrumentals - truly inspired music for a maniac!

Culled from the vaults of Cinevox and carefully restored by Claudio Fuiano, this CD premiere release does not only present the LP tracks in full stereo – as much as 17 unreleased tracks have been saved from obscurity. Presented in a 6-page digipak with original artwork and extensive liner notes by John Bender, Fin de Siècle Media are proud to give another underrated composer the attention he most certainly deserves."

Luciano Michelini - L'Isola Degli Uomini Pesce (Fin de Siècle Media)


Label info: "Luciano Michelini's action packed score for this Italian sci-fi adventure directed by Sergio Martino. It is a fusion of styles, which include highly dramatic material, romantically laced cues and pieces which by their sound and construction are obviously from the school of Italian film music. Previously released on LP by the prestigious label Cometa and now restored and presented for the first time ever on CD in a 6-page digipak with original artwork, film stills and liner notes by John Mansell!"

Teho Teardo - Tower / Microphone (Final Muzik)


This album was recorded using an elaborate set-up of 24 contact microphones placed over various parts of the ancient "Ospedale dei Battuti" tower in San Vito al Tagliamento, Italy.
The 24 microphones were then plugged into a PA system and processed by manipulating the volume faders and several analog filters. A guitar, a Fender Rhodes piano and some electronic effects are also thrown in the mix, for an end result that is a lush tapestry of deep drones and delicate field recordings, with a melodic touch resulting from the use of these additional instruments.
This piece was commissioned in 2005 by the contemporary Art Festival Hic et Nunc.

Deathpile - G.R. (Force of Nature / Hospital)


Based around the Green River killer, this release stands out from the pile of serial-killer-of-the-week power electronics CDs for one good reason: it carries a strong sense of narrative, as if you're a witness to the proceedings. As the context changes, so does the sound, evolving and shifting from walls of noise and confrontational (yet fully articulated) vocals to dense collages of assorted testimonies.

Haus Arafna - Butterfly (Galakthorrö)


Long awaited third release from this cult project. Less confrontational and aggressive than "Children of God" but their most personal and emotional work so far. Strongly recommended.
