Beat Gregoriano ... LP Leonardi/We Are Busy Bodies, 1971. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
An album that really takes the "beat" in its title seriously – as the set's got plenty of heavy drums, right from the start – and at a level that's very different than the usual Italian sound library set of the time! The vibe is more rock than jazz or easy – and the ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
De Wolfe/Be With (UK), 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99 36.99
An ultra-hip batch of vocal tracks – and one of the few full albums recorded by singer Barbara Moore – a UK jazz artist at the start, but then an important studio talent often working behind the scenes! Barbara's got a very groovy style that's part jazz, part easy, part sunshine pop ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Space Echo (Italy), 2023. New Copy ... $32.99 36.99

Gemelli/Holy Basil (Italy), 1972. New Copy (reissue)... $26.99 30.99
Wonderfully experimental music from Ennio Morricone – even darker at times than some of his famous horror soundtracks – and a record that was only pressed up in an initial small sound library run! The music has an offbeat blend of string elements, percussion, and other darker tones ... (Soundtracks, Sound Library) read more LP, Vinyl record album
Jazzaggression (Finland), 2023. New Copy ... $29.99 32.99
You might know the music of keyboardist Tonu Naisso from his work in jazz, but here the approach is slightly different – still jazz-based, but with the more compact approach of vintage sound library work – as Tonu serves up a dozen great instrumentals, all with a range of excellent ...

Mad mad work from the great Nino Nardini – one of the greatest keyboard players to ever grace the sound library scene!

One of the funkiest records ever cut by studio jazz genius Janko Nilovic!

Janko Nilovic —
Un Homme Dans L'Univers ... LP Broc (France), 1978. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
One of the most electric sets we've ever heard from sound library genius Janko Nilovic – a set that has some spacey moments that live up to the title, mixed with others that have more of the funk that you'd know from his classics! The spacier bits have a variety of keyboards tripping out in ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
JuJu/Broc (France), Late 60s. New Copy 2LP Gatefold ... $14.99 42.99

Nilovic and Jones ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Broc (France), 2020. New Copy ... $28.99 32.99

Crystal Harmonics ... LP KPM/Be With (UK), Early 80s. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A really unusual later entry in the KPM sound library series – a set that's mellower and a lot more meditative than some of the label's usual work – not action or funky soundtrack material, but instead an electronic set that resonates nicely with some of the Japanese minimal work of the ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Misha Panfilov In Focus (180 gram pressing) ... LP Jazzaggression (Finland), 2023. New Copy ... Out Of Stock
Misha Panfilov takes on the sound library style of the 70s – and as with all of his other projects, the results are completely top shelf all the way through – wonderfully funky, yet handled in a style that's a nice change from Misha's work in other modes as well!

Contrebasses ... LP Tele Music/Be With (UK), 1970. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
There's plenty of the bass promised in the title – but that's what we'd expect, given that the great Guy Pedersen's bass appeared on countless wonderful French records over the years!

Maxi Music ... LP Tele Music/Be With (UK), 1972. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
Massively funky sound library work from Guy Pedersen – a bassist who already had a long legacy in French jazz by the time of this early 70s set, yet somehow manages to knock things out of the park in a completely different way!

Jump/Four Flies (Italy), 1977. New Copy (reissue)... $30.99 34.99
A set that's not nearly as electronic as you might expect – at least not in any sort of cold, computer-styled way – as the record is full of plenty of great analog touches on keyboards, basslines, and other bits – all of which really give the whole thing a very warm glow overall! ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Continental/Mr Bongo (UK), 1973. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $25.99
Moody instrumental magic from Hareton Salvanini – an artist with an Italian sounding name, and an approach that reminds us of some of the hippest composers of the sound library and film score scene in Italy during the 70s! The album's all instrumental, and is almost a soundtrack for a film ... (Brazil, Sound Library) read more LP, Vinyl record album
