omni154 il gruppo di improvvisazione nuova consonanza: niente lp 16 track lp founded in rome in 1964, ‘il gruppo di improvvisazione nuova consonanza’ was a collective of noted and noteworthy composers who challenged the very structure and performance of music itself. today the most renowned of its members would be film scoring genius ennio morricone (indeed “il gruppo …” performed on many celebrated morricone scores of the 1960s and 1970s) but each contributor has an intriguing history in italian music. the collective improvised live (according to strict exercises) and in the studio (recording for rca, deutsche grammaphon, gdm and others). come 1970, “il gruppo’ (as ‘the group’) recorded “the feed-back” (for rca italy), an insane amalgam of avant-improvsation and motorik krautrock beats that, understandably, has become one of the most collectable lps ever issued. in october 1971 ‘il gruppo’ returned to the studio to record a sequel. this is that record. for reasons unknown “niente” was never originally issued but one listen will convince that not only is it the sequel to one of the most sought after lps of all time, but it is also by far its superior. wildly accessible, brain-melting jams collide with smokin’ grooves in a hothouse of italo avant-improv. you have been warned.

omni153 egisto macchi: i futurbili lp 11 track replica lp egisto macchi (1928-1992) has long existed in the shadow of his friend and famous collaborator ennio morricone. as morricone melded pop idioms and western scores, macchi too melded classicism, the avant garde and early electronic music. aside from his frequent collaborations with morricone (in the astounding ‘il gruppo di improvvisazione nuova consonanza’) macchi was a busy film (lsd inferno, bandidos, the assassination of trotsky) and tv (e.s.p, many commercials with mario bava) composer in late 1960s and 1970s italy and france. macchi also cut a number of highly desirable library lps for the gemelli, sermi and other italian labels in the 1970s. ‘i futuribili’ is one of the greatest and most sought after of those lps, a stunning and powerful hybrid of haunting orchestral arrangements, jarring avant tones and dense electronic atmospheres (the later played by composer and ‘il gruppo di improvvisazione nuova consonanza’ bandmate walter branchi). presented as an exact replica of the incredibly rare 1972 gemelli lp, remastered from the original master tapes and complete with scholarly liner notes as an insert.

omni149 orchestra peter thomas: orion 2000 the 'holy grail' of kraut-space-funk the highpoint of a career that boasts the legendary ‘space patrol’ (raumpatrouille) and ‘chariots of the gods’ soundtracks, peter thomas’ ‘orion 2000’ is a near-mythical release that was only ever pressed in miniscule amounts as a german library lp (in 1975) and has never been available commercially before now. drums pound, basses buzz, horns flail and star-maidens wail. berserk electronic and musique-concrete effects collide with manic energy. there is nothing on this world (or any other) that sounds like the ‘blaxploitation-kraut-jazz-in-space’ sound of the orchestra peter thomas. remastered from the original master tapes and presented with exclusive liner notes, the original artwork, four extra ultra rare tracks and rare photos. the star-people have, at last, landed.
