following the well acclaimed comeback on bosconi -gang of fools ep- and the releases on robsoul and vibraphone, fabio della torre and ennio colaci aka minimono strike again with a double release that might be considered as a split album in 2 vinyl records named -theory of strings-.first of two eps starts with the chuggy, jazzy and edgy vibe of -get the groove-, an intelligent partial rework of an underground disco-not-disco old gem. second cut gets more funky-filtered, bouncing and suspended with the fresh broken atmosphere of -back in dc- .on the b side fabio and ennio go back to jazziness adding more broken grooves, some twisted rhodes solo goodness and a persistent hypnotic driving feel to the track -actually-, and then ending this first part with another smooth filtered and toolish winner for the summer called meningi. mind the strings and wait for the second part!

they say you have your whole life to make your first album, years upon years of growth, learning and experience filtered into one perfect record. your debut is supposed to be the one you labour over, while the follow-up is meant to be served up within spitting distance of the last. well, not if you’re london based wild palms. “we did that in reverse,” explains the band’s sardonic, quick-witted frontman lou hill. “the first album was just the songs that we would play live, we wrote it really quickly. but this one took ages...” five years in fact.
recorded by the band in the same self-built manor house studio where they made their 2011 de-but ‘until spring’, the new album ‘live together, eat each other’ is a lusciously layered offering of hazy experimentalism and off-kilter alt-pop, that follows in the auspicious lineage of beach house, cocteau twins and tv on the radio.
the vinyl lp is housed in a gatefold sleeve with download code included.

from piero umiliani, legendary soundtrack composer for numerous italian movies of the 60s and 70s, and the man behind mah na mah na (muppet show, benny hill, sesame street), the omnicron label (sound library works) and the sound work shop recording studio. for fans of experimental music, avant garde, synth experimentations, ennio morricone, riz ortolani, giallo movies, mondo movies, soft erotica, and wonderfully weird stuff. the album is fully remastered for new levels of enjoyment.

with the help of friend and fellow musician john kirby, sebastien has diffused film’s languid themes with tributes to marvin gaye or to ennio morricone... if you like instrumental music with a deeply sensual twist, this record is for you!

minimono finally strikes back on bosconi records since 4 years from their last hot album *runaway*. this four tracker vinyl named *gang of fools* represents the perfect continuation of fabio della torre & ennio colacis trademark sound aesthetic dense of funk, warm vibes and west coast house attitude: the record starts on a side with that unmistakable shake-yo-booty disco riff of the *gang of fools* track which follows the deeper and keep on going groove of *rapid fall* on the second cut. on b side instead you ll find the sliding and subtle no excuse driving jack-house-funk of *bring it* followed by the melancholy and romanticism of the *under the influence* closing track. no tools for fools!

saudade ist eine spezifisch portugiesische form des weltschmerzes. es läßt sich mit traurigkeit, wehmut, sehnsucht oder sanfte melancholie nur annähernd übersetzen. das wort steht für das nostalgische gefühl, etwas geliebtes verloren zu haben, wohlahnend, dass es nie wieder zurückkommt. das album ist stark beeinflusst von klassikern wie antonio carlos jobim, gal costa und luis bonfá, aber auch serge gainsbourg, ennio morricone und modernen künstlern wie der electro-samba-pionierin isabelle antena. saudade entstand mit hilfe einer vielzahl von gastmusikern.

pascal pinkert aka dollkraut is a unique specimen in todays world of clean and sterile music production. the dutch producer is best described as an analogue sound wizard with a golden touch for pop moments. his music often sounds like a past that was more beautiful, more broken and more glimmering than it actually was. dollkraut dares to sound like no one else, cinematic and glamorous, rough and haunting. his tracks are driven by a deep love for old lo-fi fuelled recordings,70s space age synths and john barry or ennio morricone fuzziness galore.

one of the master teachers of the norwegian house and disco rune lindbaek - who put oslo on the house map as part of the those norwegians ( paper music ) - joins forces with younger disciple kare frisvold for a potent, accoustic hallucinogenic called >bozak brewed with the shared knowledge of mad sounds scientist like walter gibbons and lee scratch perry: a constantly building electrical storm of strange psychedelic synth noises pierced by flutters of rico rodriguez style trombone solo, liquid guitar scales and kraftwerk like melodic fragments all held together by a forcefull drum beat. the quirky >spok & spenning< on the flip is another beautifully strange mixture of cinematic melodies, like sweated out by a drunken ennio morricone, over an easy skanking beat and comes additionally in a stripped down bonus beat plus spacey sounds version by prins thomas. take a trip to your mind!

altair nouveau consists of one brandon mitchell, a young producer from the west coast currently residing in san francisco. altair nouveaus music, though designed with the dance floor in mind, still evokes a personal element. it is the combination of these elements that give altair nouveau his indistinguishable larger than life, spaced-out future disco sound sure to cause a dance floor frenzy. raised in the sprawling city of san jose, california to musical parents. mitchell grew up with the encouragement of his father, an electronic music teacher at the local community college. brandon began educating himself by collecting albums from the likes of giorgio moroder, vangelis, ennio morricone and john carpenter. this gave way to newer acts such as in flagranti, prins thomas, lindstrom and several artists on dfa. the title track æspace fortress marks a bold and exciting introduction into the sonic landscape of mr. nouveau, combining g funk, p funk and a 4/4 disco foundation that adds up to something otherworldly altogether. released as a joint effort with the uber-hip dfa records this 12 features mixes exclusive to this release from ultra-talented irishman john daly who turns out a deeper take while michel morins criminally underrated nom-de-plume sneak-thief takes it deeper into spacey disco-funk territory.

third release for the third eye project of masomenos, with 3 tracks by themselves, including a great featuring by curro savoy on ningessera, a vocal pumping & deep house track. you ve probably heard curro savoy before, as he is the amous whistler from all ennio morricone soundtracks for sergio leone movies! he brings here an amazing melancholic vibes with his whistle & guitar… percute his a funkier track, but still quite trippy. as for sambatic, we get more into percussive groove with some great vocals too, thats sound like in ningessera to be some unknown universal language

aready played by raresh, arnaud le texier, russ gabriel, masomenos !!freshly squeezed productions for the second chapter of the minimono saga! this time fabio and ennio have been joined by their ethique label dudes, techno funk parisian guru john thomas and florentian house newcomers the clover. the original mix is a floating deep and funky groovy track with warm basslines, positive vibes and made to leave you smiling on the dancefloor. the clover version goes more jackin and jazzy, french touch and chicago house elements mixed together make it harder and darker. john & barbara?s really personal sexy style gives the original a more intelligent and sophisticated identity, broken grooves and whispering chopped vocals. as last present from the bosconi crew, the release also includes an african voodoo dub version of the original mix. this is the new funk!!

second part of the original soundtrack of quentin tarantinos masterpiece!!!

support by sven väth, laurent garnier ! a futuristic ennio morricone sounding track, which is pretty amazing ! incl saxophon sample !

with >sweet murmur< the duo fabio delletorre and ennio colaci, aka minimono, delivers a funky track, that is carried by a simple deep chord. it spreads the typical oslo vibe. a hypnotic tool with percussive elements, not too obvious, no straining for effect, but deep and driving. so is the flip side of the record, with a track called >house in the house<. it s the first release of markus fix on the olso sublabel. with this pumping, energetic house tool, he definitely points out his love to this genre.

after >tono ep< their first single on telegraph acclaimed by international djs minimono are italian friends comes back with 4 strong minimal house tracks in the spirit of some daniel bell productions minimono is an artistic project who expresses the concept of modernity trough art and music by a collaboration between a dj and a musician respectively fabio della torre and ennio colaci. this sound concept is based on minimalism, ultra funky and groove. they offer here productions with experimental sonority but conserving a funky house spirit to a coherent result and, overall, ultra effective!

pikaya take to the a-side with a flourish of robes and flashing beams of light. >jedi< is not the track youre looking for… wait, no—it absolutely is the track youre looking for, all mind tricks aside. kicking off with a sparse drum pattern, it quickly shifts from a measured andante to an easy jog, as resonant synths and sweeping filters whip up desert winds and high drama. high, lonesome counterpoints and a moody chord progression carry the faintest whiff of ennio morricones outlaw music, and playful trills—you could almost swear they were birdcalls—suggest a secret oasis hidden just behind the next hill.if you find >jedi< cinematic, then >fango< will really blow your wide-screen mind. starting with a rhythmic underpinning thats everything youve come to expect from a cadenza track - tight, ultra-kinetic, just a little bit jittery - pikaya build up layer upon layer of hazy pads and cool arpeggios that shimmer like the aurora borealis. bullfrog-throated horns occasionally burst in with a fat, amicable fanfare, announcing the arrival of the peak hour. great, unison handclaps play off against heel-kicking syncopations: madness ensues. and then everything slowly, imperceptibly smears together and loses focus, and the tune fades flickeringly away. talk about a double feature! now playing on a turntable near you
