Groove Club Vol. 4: Sinn Sisamouth Vol. 1
* Comes with an 8-page full color booklet with info and photos supplied by Sinn Sisamouth's surviving family. * There were no deluxe studios for the musicians who recorded the devastating tracks contained herein. Nothing so grand. Most of these tracks were recorded live, with traditional instruments finding a place alongside any keyboards or guitars that could be found. And yet, it was the experiments of Khmer rock musicians which transformed the nightlife of the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh—an…
Mad Song
** Edition of 300** Oaken Palace Records is excited to present its 20th release, a sonic journey to the roots of drone music, performed by Bombay Lunatic Asylum.

Melanesia
A journey back in time, maybe thousands of years ago, somewhere in the isolated islands of Melanesia. Here, just like a sound alchemist, Roberto Musci transforms organic nature elements into a unique sound performance of self-estrangement. In the artists’ laboratory, we will discover a melting pot of ancestral ceremonial sounds collided with contemporary chamber music and experimental-electronic methods based on music research. Among these, ethnical music of the populations of Kanaki, Itamul, K…
Michael Oosten
* 2021 Stock * Keeping a band together was difficult in the late 1960’s. Tough too, because Michael Oosten was writing songs that veered away from pop-song structures. There was also the relative ease and lack of responsibility required for hauling around a guitar. So, Oosten took off, with a Martin guitar in tow, playing coffeehouses and clubs across the country. By the end of 1973, he was ready to record an LP—five psychedelic folk/rock tracks, ranging from the brightly smiling ‘Sunny Day’ to …
Disappear
* Edition of 300 * Disappear was born of something that ceased to be, suddenly, unexpectedly, painfully. like two mirrors that reflected too strongly and burst. the shards that were left tell a story. of a trance meeting of an insect and a flower in a self-made paradise and the resulting journey that took them towards new dimensions but was brutally cut short before these could be explored. the sun disappeared. the resulting daze looked back and saw... mirrors don’t reflect what we want to see.

Dino & Montevideo Blues

Vinyl edition comes in a heavy-duty tip-on jacket. Contains two additional tracks not on the CD edition * If there’s one thing we’ve learned from doing reissues for twenty years, it’s that there is often a lack of justice in the arts.

Aura a.k.a Sativa
* 2021 Stock * Aura was a San Francisco Psych-Funk band that formed in 1974 and played extensively throughout Northern California. By 1976, the band recorded their first and only album at Pacific Recording Studio in San Mateo. The original title of the album was meant to be “Sativa”, but out of fear that promoting the joys of marijuana would be too controversial, the band omitted the title and just left it as “Aura”. Over the ensuing decades, the Aura album has grown in stature to become a major…
49th Parallel
* 2021 Stock. Edition of 500. One of the top Canadian rock albums of the psychedelic era. Comes with color insert with band history and photos * In the spring of 1969, 49th Parallel had a hit in with ‘Twilight Woman’, a lovely song that sounds like a poppier version of what bands like Tomorrow were doing in England. That success led to the release of 49th Parallel’s only album. All hyperbole aside, it is easily one of the top Canadian rock albums of the psychedelic era. The album is strong throu…
Senza Movente
* Edition of 300 * Quartet Records and GDM present the first vinyl edition of the killer Ennio Morricone score for Senza Movente (aka Sans Mobile Apparent), a 1971 French crime thriller about an investigator (Jean-Louis Trintignant) looking into the murders of seemingly unrelated people, all shot down by a mysterious assassin.

Musica Poliformale
**Very rare original 1971 LP. Few copies available** Rare record on the legendary Sermi label, a nice sound library record, but one from the 'experimental' side of the 70s spectrum by composer AR Luciani - one side haunting chamber music, the other side darker and more avant-garde. Fantastic cover with a great Futurist design
Europa 1930-1940
**Very rare original 1975 LP. Few copies available** Rare record on the collectible Deneb label,aA great early 70s War-themed library LP by Riz AR Luciani! Europa 1930-1940 is crafted with a slightly different feel than usual for the time – almost more straight experimental and darker than the some of the seedier Italian drama sounds of the period.
Barocco 2000
**Very rare original 1972 LP** few copies of this original library album, issued by Maria Teresa Luciani. To quote Finderskeepers that a few years ago reissued her 'Sounds of the City' "Pre-digital, indefinable and genuinely unbelievable. But who is Maria Teresa Luciani? On hearing this record, respected collectors and enthusiasts have suggested "the female answer to Basil Kirchin", or "the Italian Daphne Oram", both with justified cause. Mystery, myth, legend, teacher, artist, inventor, author,…
Situazioni
**Very rare original 1975 LP** few copies, still sealed, of this original library album, issued by the legendary RCA SP Series no less than 45 years ago by Antonino Riccardo Luciani, which includes eleven exclusive compositions, full of stark sounds that often move into atonal areas – sometimes electronic, sometimes spacey – and seemingly repeated using tape tricks or other effects, so that a number of tunes loop back on themselves in a really cool way
