[Bang Bang] - Franco Delfino - Astrattismo 3

Bang Bang - bblp 8230 - Franco Delfino - Astrattismo 3

Moody set of tunes, on what seems to be the third in a series of Astrattismo-albums. The a-side is credited to Jayfield, the b-side to Caw, both I suppose are monikers of Franco Delfino. Hard to tell, info is scarce. Enjoy!

[Amplitude] - W. Karolak & Z. Kalemba - A Softly Touch, And Go!

Amplitude - amp 1004 - Wojciech Karolak & Zbigniew Kalemba - A Softly Touch, And Go!

Some fine jazzy tracks, Fever and Discopus stand out for me. I love the hazy punchy sound throughout the album, they don't do it like that anymore. Enjoy it!

[KPM] - Tony Hymas - Face To Face

KPM - kpm 1313 - Tony Hymas - Face To Face

80s librarymusic is hit and miss. Digital synths were the sign of the times, often resulting in flat and cold sounding music, atleast to my ears. Throw in some flamboyant arrangements, and, voila... the creepy side of the 80s emerges. My shelf is full of those, and upon listening to this one, I was certain I had another one on my hands. Fortunately, two tracks save the day; The Challenge and Future Time. Don't let the rest scare you off.

Violator

Hi folks, just got a slew of notices from Mediafire regarding removal of files in violation of their terms. I guess this is it, atleast for now. I'm curious though, who keeps reporting the files? What's your motivation? Please leave a comment and explain yourself, anonymously if you prefer. I just want to know. My motivation is to dig up and share forgotten music that was never released commercially. Everything presented here has been out of print for decades. There's no profit in this for me, quite the contrary. Come on, speak up!
