Lost sound library genius from Fabio Fabor – working here under the name of The Astral Dimension – which is a very good tag for the sound on the set!

Phonotype/Cabiria (Italy), 1975. New Copy (reissue)... $28.99

Schema (Italy), Early 70s. New Copy ... $9.99
A fantastic set of Fender Rhodes from the Italian scene of the 70s – not a record that got the kind of mainstream play as American classics by Bob James and Ramsey Lewis – but a set that definitely shares their spirit!

Born Bad (France), 1970s/Early 80s. New Copy ... $18.99

Not the fauna and flora you might expect from the title – and instead, a collection that's every bit as heady as some of Egisto Macchi's other sound library work from the time – very offbeat, very unusual, and pretty downright spooky!

Cometa (Italy), 1973. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99
One of the weirdest sound library records we've ever heard from Egiso Macchi – and that's really saying a lot, given how much weird music the man has given us over the years!

Ayna/Cinedelic (Italy), Early 70s. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99
One of those records that reminds us that Egisto Macchi was way more than just a standard sound library composer – as, although he often worked in that format, he had ideas that were much more in keeping with some of the larger compositional territory of Italian modernists of the 60s and 70s ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Pure/Desco, Early 70s. Sealed ... $19.99
Supposedly, this is a lost album of French "sound library" music – though we can't verify that 100% – it's still a great batch of raw, stripped down funky organ grooves, with a good choppy feel that's similar to the Champ LP by The Mohawks.

Edizioni Minstrel/Spettro (Italy), 1981. New Copy (reissue)... $19.99
A great little project from two underground legends of Italian music – keyboardist Oscar Rocchi, whose legacy includes some great jazz and sound library material – and drummer Tullio De Piscopo, who could play with avant talents, but also hit some tighter grooves for the clubs! This ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Hand-numbered limited edition of 500!)
Fonovideo/Schema (Italy), 1974. New Copy ... $14.99
Some of the most offbeat music we've heard from Italian musician Oscar Rocchi – a set that's not nearly as jazzy as some of his other work of the time, and which instead serves as a wonderfully experimental approach to keyboards! The set's done in collaboration with Fabio Fabor (and has ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Costanza/Schema (Italy), 1979. New Copy (reissue)... $26.99
A sound library album from the end of the 70s, but one that's got a fair bit of funky jazz in the mix, too – thanks to a lifetime dedication to the music by Amleto "Puccio" Roelens! Roelens was a musician with a long lineage on the Italian scene in the postwar years – and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes bonus CD of entire album!)
Schema (Italy), 1978. New Copy ... $26.99
A wild one from Italian soundtrack composer Piero Umiliani – a set that definitely lives up to the disco promise of the title, but which still has some of the cool playful touches of Umiliani's work in movies too! The record may well be the funkiest that Piero ever cut – and was done ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Includes bonus CD of entire album!)
New Tape/Sonor (Italy), 1971. New Copy (reissue)... Just Sold Out!
Beautiful sounds from a duo who were one of the strongest instrumental forces on the Italian sound library scene – trumpeter Cicci Santucci and saxophonist Enzo Scoppa – both musicians with a strong legacy in jazz as well! Those jazz chops certainly come to light here – on a ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Basta (Netherlands), 1960s. New Copy 3LP ... $42.99 44.98
An amazing lost trove of work by electronic music Raymond Scott – sounds that were never issued commercially, and which may well represent the last corner of his genius yet to be explored! The music here was all created in Scott's home studio on Long Island – and is a fantastic blend ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(3LPs in their individual sleeves – plus 20 page book and download!)
Sonorama (Germany), 1976. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
A funky fusion classic! Second Direction are certainly not a household name – and the record has even more obscure origins than most, given that it was originally done as a small sound library project. Yet the quality of the set has given it a surprisingly wide reach with collectors and ... (Jazz, Sound Library) read more CD

Metronome/Wah Wah (Spain), 1971. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99
A fantastic record that more than lives up to the promise of its title and cover – and a set that's gone onto legendary fame as part of the music used by director Jess Franco for his Vampyros Lesbos films! The music here comes from the German jazz scene of the early 70s – a sound ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited editoin of 1000! Includes booklet of notes – and bonus film poster too!)
Berry/Dual Planet (Australia), Early 60s. New Copy Gatefold (reissue)... $6.99 23.99
Very early electronic sound library material from Eric Siday – so much so, that all these tracks were originally issued as 78rpm singles – at a time before the sound library scene moved into using full LPs! A number of cuts here were used as early passages on the first Doctor Who ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Jimi Tenor/Moog Recordings Library, 2018. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
A mighty nice meeting of giants – Scandinavian funk and jazz wizard Jimi Tenor, and the legendary Afro Funk drummer Tony Allen – coming together here in a set of duos that are way more than the sum of their parts! Tony plays live drums, and Jimi adds in lots of keyboards and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Volga/Sonor (Italy), 1974. New Copy (reissue)... $21.99
Great work from a trio of Italian sound library composers – all working together here to craft a lovely picture of the watery deep! As you'd guess from the title, there's some slight currents here that recall the sexier styles of Italian soundtrack work – lightly jazzy elements, maybe ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Four Flies (Italy), 1967. New Copy (reissue)... $32.99
Hardly the sort of industrial sounds you might not expect – not the noisy European mode of the 80s, nor even the sort of labor-conscious styles of the Folkways generation – and instead, a sweet batch of groovy, lively instrumentals with a strong 60s vibe – of the sort that makes ...

Liuto/Schema (Italy), 1972. New Copy 2LP Gatefold & CD (reissue)... $29.99
Percussion and special effects – a really wonderful blend, especially in the hands of Italian maestro Piero Umiliani!

Beat (Italy), 1976. New Copy ... $16.99
A wonderful sound library set from the great Piero Umiliani – and a record that's filled with some of his coolest electronics ever! The feel of the record is very much in keeping with the image on the cover – kind of sci fi, but kind of playful too – a wonderful blend of ... (Soundtracks, Sound Library) read more CD
