Montparnasse 2000 - mp 129 - Roland Hollinger - Peaceful Dreams

This one would fit nicely over at Crystal Vibrations, here's from the back..

This record is a double sided record; every piece of music has a rhythmic progressive relationship between the music. The purpose is to direct the Mind into relaxation of a person and feelings of peace.

Natural sounds are used between each piece to remind one that the entire body is involved in the perception of reality: "the mother nature", sensitive vibrations of universal time.

Best results are achieved by listening to the music in all the processes of this arranged record, and gradually the relaxation will spread throughout the entire body.

Angel's Kiss Records - ak-lp 77701 - Marco Persichetti - Il Tempo, La Memoria E Lei

I found a copy of this rarity, and was lucky to get in touch with the composer in the process. He was cool to write a few lines about the album, so here's Marco Persichetti. Thank you very much!

IL TEMPO, LA MEMORIA E LEI

Remarks

This was my first album, and I interpreted very freely and with real curiosity my task (they gave me only few instructions, something like “Write a music that must be not too loud, and rather continuous in mood”).

Considering that it was a typical low-budget library record, it was a true luxury to have obtained (after little negotiation with the music editor) a “real” harpsichord (on “Passacaglia” and “E ancora mare”) and a “real” harp on “Un nuovo giorno”. Many friends provided “free” solo parts, such reducing the production costs, as my brother Gianluca who played all the six different guitar parts in “Un racconto di Luca” and many beautiful solos in the other tunes, or Daniela Troiani who played the two flutes-canon in “Canone 884”.

It's quite fun, today, to look at some tecnological devices that represented, at the time of the record, the state-of-the-art of tecnology, (we were in 1984!) and now are pure archaeology, as for example the analogic sequencer employed besides the three trumpets in “Girotondo per Francesca”, while the “futuristic” Yamaha DX7 seemed to open new worlds (you can hear it in “Il tempo, la memoria e lei”). I played piano, Fender Rhodes and the other keyboards, including an odd little keyboard designated only to imitate the sound of the electric bass (another “archaeological” device).

The whole record was made into a lilliput- music studio, packed into a car-box, and owned by Francesco “Cicci” Santucci, an excellent jazz trumpet player, who was the music engineer and played the three-trumpet theme of “Girotondo per Francesca”.

Monique Music Library - mml 015 - Ralph Lundsten - Strangers In Paradise

Electronic impressions of alien scenes, accompanied by heavy, spacy rhythms. Another MML, and from what I can gather it consists of renamed selections from other Lundsten-releases; Edge of Eden is Discophrenia, Paradise Winds is Shangri-La, and The Gate, an excerpt from Cosmic Phantazy. Maybe all of the tunes are renamed ones.. didn't have time to check it out. Leave a comment if you know more, and enjoy!

Other composers include Julian St.Clair, Alain J. Leroux, Paul Kass, Kathleen Crees, George Axon and Artus. Check out Lazy Summer by Paul Kass :)

Magicabus - mag 006 - Phil Davies - Lagoon, Aerial Horizons/Suave Descriptions

I've posted two albums from this elusive French label earlier, both featuring composers new to me. This one, by Phil Davies, is no different, and a very positive surprise. The a-side, Aerial Horizons, features beautiful airy synth-ambience, aswell as the amazing upbeat 'Flying High', while the b-side, Suave Descriptions, is more of a pornographic affair, and not as interesting as the a-side, imo. Btw, if you're in possession of Yan Tregger/Daniel Scotto's Hypnosis, also on Magicabus, don't be a stranger and drop me a mail! Enjoy this one:)

Smoother than expected this one, having bought it after hearing Rimbert's synthy Bionic Orchestra (shared on 36 15 MOOG). Several tunes here remind me of Mezzoforte and their many Japanese and American counterparts doing catchy popjazz. Rimbert also has a few releases on April Orchestra that would be great getting.

VA - When We Once Lived - The Best Of Media Music Library, Selected By Jimmy Michaels

Another kind offering from the vaults of Jimmy Michaels, here's a beautiful set of tunes from Capitol's Media Music Library :)

"23 tracks hand picked from the late 70s and early 80s of my faves out of the material that survived in the archives of media music. All digitally remastered from the original master tapes (no vinyl transfers). I was actually trying to get this compilation released in 2007, but the investment costed too much for my very small indie label, and it would have never panned out in profit. So after finding your blog.. its now time to give it away for free to folks that would appreciate it :) Hope you and everyone else will enjoy it."
