SPITTLEDD 007LP
|
After achieving some decent notoriety, and not only in Italy, as an electro-pop duo (thanks mainly to the single "Short Wave," a small "classic" in the early years of that decade), between January 1982 and March 1983 Ruins morphed into a new five members line-up. With this fresh option, Ruins restructured the previous repertoire and produced entirely new material. The original four-track recording had remained largely unpublished at the time and seemed irretrievably lost. However, thanks to persistent research and with the aid of modern technology, they have been brilliantly recovered from the archives and are now available in this collection aptly titled Brain Flakes (The Lost Combo Tapes), bringing to light the "explosive" blend of prog, funk, new wave, and electro-pop, that Ruins' short-lived lineup managed to create in just over a year of activity.

SPITTLEDD 001EP
|
Originally released in 1982 this pure electro-jam was a surgical trait d'union between the Italo-disco phenomenon and the American boogie. The frantic vocal version is paired with the instrumental on the B-side. Scientific Saturday Night Fever with vocoder and the likes!

2024 repress. Pioneers, that's what they're called. Not properly a giant team, but a bunch of forward-thinking producers. In the heyday of the Italo disco there was some forward thinking, a new way to address the club scene. 1985 is the golden year and if you want to get to the core of the synth-pop experience. Look no further! This previously unreleased compilation collects a series of unbelievable tracks. An outstanding vision featuring la crème de la crème of the early '80s scene. All the way from electro wizard Alexander Robotnick to the astonishing performance of vocalist Mya Fracassini, through the French connection of Bigazzi brothers of Mon Bijou. Also features Mya & The Mirror, Naïf Orchestra, and Gina & The Flexix.

Killer rendition of the classic Led Zeppelin stomp, arranged by famous DJ and producer Massimo Barsotti. Programmed by none other than Maurizo Dami aka Alexander Robotnick, this robotic version is delivered with alien vocals and cold as ice synth lines. Still a favorite for many international DJs.
