LITTO NEBBIA
Bazar De Los Milagros

Repressed on LP via VAMPISOUL!

“Vampisoul present the first vinyl reissue of Litto Nebbia’s Bazar De Los Milagros, originally released in 1976. A space jazz-folk masterpiece infused with prog scents from one of the true legends of Argentinian music, Latin rock pioneer Litto Nebbia. Floating electric piano, acoustic guitar, female choirs and Moog sounds combine with Litto’s own voice and create a unique blend of delicate beauty. The use of analog synthesizers in this conceptual album was a turn in Nebbia’s work at the time. A long seven-minute suite opens the album, mixing acoustic textures with synth sounds, setting the grounds for the entire LP. Songs of introspective darkness alternate with other tracks influenced by sunny bossa nova, musical passages fueled with epic energy where the voice of Mirtha Defilpo accompanies Nebbia along with the intricate and enveloping instrumental work driven by Daniel Homer’s guitars and Litto Nebbia’s keyboards. The album draws a complex soundscape made up of an almost infinite number of musical pieces, rich in layers and textures, that — decades after its original release — still stands out for their modernity. Bazar De Los Milagros is undoubtedly one of the most advanced recordings of those that appeared in Latin America at the end of the ‘70s. Includes the song “La Caída”, as recently sampled on Jay Electronica/Jay Z’s hip-hop hit “The Neverending Story”. Bazar De Los Milagros has also been listed on Japanese DJ and music expert Chee Shimizu’s Obscure Sound guidebook, a must for record collectors. Includes facsimile version of the 32-page booklet that accompanied the original 1976 release; remastered sound.”

Traffic Sound⠀

Repressed on LP, reissue on MUNSTER RECORDS

⠀

“Peru enjoyed a thriving and exciting music scene since the mid-1960s. Bands such as Los Saicos, Los Shain’s, and Los York’s, to name just a few, released a number of brilliant records that drove young fans crazy and set an example for many to follow. The end of the decade brought about an evolution in sound and new music genres, as Peruvian bands kept an eye on the groundbreaking British and US artists exploring baroque pop, psychedelic rock and early prog. One of them was Traffic Sound, founded in Lima in 1967. Over a very short period of time the band managed to successfully develop their career transcending their starting point, in which they’d simply record covers of artists such as Jimi Hendrix, Cream, or The Young Rascals, moving on to the more mature sound of their first LP with self-written songs, Virgin (1969), a masterpiece of Latin rock, and this second self-titled LP, released in 1970. Traffic Sound incorporates here complex arrangements and long song structures with which they approach prog music. However, the immediacy of songs like “Yesterday’s Game”, with a fierce and contagious guitar riff, or “Chicama Way”, a terrific anthem, clear any possible doubt about the sound principles of the band: groovy rock. While tracks such as “Those Days Have Gone” or “America” show the friendliest yet psychedelic side of the group, “Tibet’s Suzettes”, the opening song of the album, simultaneously introduces all the ingredients of the Traffic Sound recipe: hypnotic rhythms, untamed guitars, and very skilled playing. Although some influences cannot be ignored, this second Traffic Sound album is huge and deserves to be considered one of the greatest recordings of its time, even internationally, as essential as the most hailed works of Cream, Caravan, or Led Zeppelin that served as a bridge for rock music between the ‘60s and ‘70s. Presented in facsimile tri-fold sleeve and pressed on 180 gram vinyl.”⠀

DUB ORGANISER
Original & Vintage Dubs From The A-Class Studio
⠀
forthcoming LP via REAL ROCK
⠀
“First LP release on Real Rock Records now repressed! Initially released on a small run pressing, this is a fine style dubwise selection from the Fashion Records catalogue. The rhythms contained in this album were recorded in the 1980s for various projects, some of which never saw an official release. The tracks were all mixed at the A-Class Studio by Chris “Dub Organiser” Lane, and were initially shared to a select circle of sound system operators to be played as exclusive dubs. Now the time is right for the music to be made available to all dub addicts and music lovers.”

ANENON

Dream Temperature (Clear)

New LP via TONAL UNION



“Saxophonist, producer and composer Brian Allen Simon explores darker hues, transposing waking and altered states under his studio veil Anenon. On the deeply evocative new album Dream Temperature, he shifts electronic processing to the foreground, introducing digitized wind instruments and unworldly atmospherics, not heard since his innovating mid-late 2010s output. Dream Temperature sees Brian primed with a newly discovered wind synthesizer as his central compositional tool, alongside acoustic piano and tenor saxophone. The entirety of the album’s electronics are triggered by Brian’s lungs, generating otherworldly synths modulated by expressive breath control, channeled through the laptop as the core processing chamber for added textural components and field recordings. A free floating and heavy emotional resonance marks Dream Temperature from beginning to end, invoking the feeling of waking up, still heavy from a night of half-remembered dreams, and continuing one’s day in this state. Simon maps out the album’s spatial voice early on the statement title track, a deep, yet compact cut, generated from digital saxophone rasps that whistle by in close proximity, along with haze filled textures and sub bass. There is a sonic oscillation of urban grit and pastoral drift throughout as tracks pass by like introspective thoughts, fueling both a tense and ethereal quality that underpins the album... The sound is evocative of the productions of post dubstep era luminaries such as Burial or the productions of HTRK’s Nigel Yang. More isolating and enveloping than the previous all acoustic record, this is music both disorienting and yet warmly inviting all at once. A sonic diarist at heart, personal field recordings were also taken from Sardinia, Japan, Big Sur and LA which intersect at unexpected moments throughout the album’s 31-minute play time. Dream Temperature is a vital coalescence of both Simon’s electronic and acoustic practices with repositioned electronics akin to earlier works, both haunting and elegant, yet still profoundly personal.”

YOUNG CHARLATANS

1978

Restocked on LP via EMINENT VINYL!



“The first ever official release by this legendary Melbourne post-punk band who only ever existed for a number of months in 1978, but who cast an important and influential light in Australian (and global!) music, influencing the likes of the Boys Next Door/Birthday Party and The Models, the group’s membership and its diaspora reading like a who’s-who of crucial Australian music of the past 50 years. In the band was a young Rowland S. Howard, who would soon go onto join the BND/Birthday Party; Ollie Olsen (Whirlywirld, No, Max Q, Dogs In Space soundtrack and so much more); Janine Hall (Saints; Weddings, Parties, Anything) and Jeffrey Wegener (drummer extraordinaire for the Laughing Clowns and the Saints, among others). The Young Charlatans recorded a demo with Ron Rude, and also surviving is a live recording from the Tiger Lounge in Richmond. With help from band manager Bruce Milne, Eminent Vinyl have sourced these two recordings to make up this LP, mixing the best of the both to document 45 minutes of inspired music as young players were still grappling with the fallout of punk rock, and wishing to push the music further into more experimental and adventurous directions. Contained here are 13 original songs composed by Rowland and/or Ollie — including an early version of Howard’s defining track, “Shivers” — remastered by Mikey Young and featuring extensive liner notes by author and friend/fan of the band, Clinton Walker. With photos, articles and ephemera provided by Bruce Milne and Phil Morland, it is housed in stunning artwork and design by Luke Fraser, including a four-page booklet.”
