Weird and wonderful sounds from a very electric man – the mighty Piero Umiliani, an Italian composer who first rose to fame for a set of groundbreaking film scores
in the 60s – then moved into even more experimental sound library work
in the following decade! This set has Piero working
in all sorts of cool electronic styles – never too outside or avant, but definitely
in the darker side of his spectrum – although almost always with that playful sense of a tune that made his 60s music such a de
light! The range of instruments varies – Umiliani clearly had a studio that was full of brand-new, top-shelf technologies – and titles are mostly from the mid 70s, with a few later cuts from 1983. Tunes include "Danza Magica", "Soundmaker Blues", "Fruitori", "B
atticuore", "Sinistro Carillon", "Dolomiti", "Apocolaisse Atomica", "Description", "Lavorazione A Mare", and "Elettrone".
