Time of Hayfield
Time of Hayfied represents a thematic shift away from more long-form and slowly developing pieces Andrew Chalk is known for prior to this and also especially in his work with Mirror (1999-2004). It is the stepping stones between two worlds and is still steeped in foggy textural atmospheres, but as though pierced by sunlight through a forest canopy, where melodies and harmonic structures appear and dart through the vignettes. There is a sense of lost golden summers and all is enhanced by the narr…

Collected Tape Experiments 1980-1984
"La Maison's story is essentially an oral one, like for many bands in those years. Casual encounters, records found and exchanged, demos recorded at home, live club shows in a country that in those years was changing socially and culturally at the speed of light, and was molding itself at the rate of a fluid modernity. The tracks of this album, Collected Tape Experiments 1980-1984, all recorded between 1980 and 1984, tell the story of a world where synthesizers and drum machines coexist a…

Der Westen Ist Am Ende: The Complete Sessions

The sweaty sessions stretched for weeks, resuming in London - to whip these loose tracks into shape.

Roller
Roller was the second record for Goblin, originally released in 1976, just after the successful score of Profondo Rosso, and is one of the very few Goblin records that was not intended to be a soundtrack.

Un Tentativo Sentimentale
Un Tentativo Sentimentale is the first film by the novelist Pasquale Festa Campanile, written and directed together with Massimo Franciosa in 1963. The film fits into the path traced by Michelangelo Antonioni with his "trilogy of incommunicability" in the early years of the decade, staging a bourgeois existential drama shot between the Roman districts of Parioli and Vigna Clara and the beach of Sabaudia. The original soundtrack is one of the most beautiful and particular among those composed in …
