Info:

Milan, Italy, 1983. In The Midst Of The 80s Economic Boom, Which Gave An Injection Of Optimism After The Heavily Political 70s, A Group Of Young Local Musicians Meet Every Night In A Basement To Rehearse And Record A Peculiar Breed Of Italian Disco Music. Originated From The Ashes Of Various Other Projects, And Rooted In The Broader Jazz-funk Tradition, The Group Creates Music Which Is Equally Inspired By Contemporary Fusion As Well As By The First Wave Of The Italo-disco Sound. Over Approximately 3 Years The Band Has Recorded And Played Live, Until The Dismantling Of The Project Towards The Mid 80 S. Fast Forward 35 Years And The Genuinely Mediterranean Flavor Of Qvark S Demo Recordings Are Still Enjoyable, Both For The Actual Resurgence Of The Italian Disco Tradition And For The Groovy Quirkiness Of A Project Which Has Been Too Long Forgotten. After An Intense Work Of Audio Restoration Of Such Tapes, Heavily Affected By Time, Early Sounds Is Pleased To Present A Compilation Which Is An Important Find To Define The Sound Of Late 70 S And Early 80 S Italian Club Sound.-
