***2024 repress. The Deviants, headed and fronted by Mike Farren, was the answer to the American groups like Stooges and MC5. Their chaotic music was the vehicle for a total assault on the culture and the mutation of "Surfing Bird" and "Wipe Out" called "Pappa-Oo-Mao-Mao" was and remain their Manifesto.

***2024 repress. For this great 1971 soundtrack of Enzo Castellari's Gli Occhi Freddi della Paura, Ennio Morricone called on the services the Gruppo d'Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza, the legendary avant-garde and improvisational combo of which he was a founding member. Not only a classy soundtrack but also a classic of the experimental and free jazz genre.

***2024 repress. Produced by the Young Marble Giant 's leader Stuart Moxham, Lazy Ways is the second and last album by the seminal post-punk band from Hatfield (UK), the Marine Girls. Despite the short life of the band, Alice Fox, Jane Fox, and Tracey Thorn (Everything But The Girl) have left an indelible mark on the music history. Listed as one of Kurt Cobain 's favorite bands of all the time, the Marine Girls—with their unique DIY and twee style—can be counted among the fans people of the likes of LCD Soundsystem, Kathleen Hanna, and Courtney Love.

***2024 repress. A great score by the maestro, Ennio Morricone for Umberto Lenzi's 1974 cult thriller Spasmo. Here Morricone creates a disorienting and disturbing effect, using an unusual and almost avant-garde like combination of sounds, music and instruments.

***2024 repress. Although the band never released an album during the years of their activity, Wilde Flowers is certainly to be counted among the foundation stones of the Canterbury scene of the mid-to-late '60s. After their departure from the band, the members formed other two seminal groups of the Canterbury sound: Soft Machine (Robert Wyatt, Kevin Ayers, and Hugh Hopper) and Caravan (David Sinclair, Richard Sinclair, Pye Hastings, and Richard Coughlan). The name is of course an homage to Oscar Wilde, and this album is a selection of some of their rarest gems that originally came out in 1994.
