Topic: Two italian artists... Posted: November 18 2006 at 08:09 |
I have two suggestions for PA:
1.Francesco Buccheri - Journey (1979) - Progressive Electronic.
A composer from Bologna whose only vinyl LP is particularly sought after by italian obscurities collectors, as it only had a very limited private pressing. He had previously formed a group called Ex Aequo, with which he played for four years. The full line-up included Francesco Buccheri on keyboards, guitars and vocals, keyboardists Roberto Mingozzi and Danilo Forni (also on violin), and drummer Marco Raimondi. Unreleased works by Buccheri have been included on the CD reissue of the album (1983 solo keyboards recordings) and on a separate CD called Hand made, but these can be only interesting to completists. Francesco Buccheri has kept recording his music, releasing four interesting self-produced CD's from 1995 to 2005, the last of which is The call. And:
2. Sangiuliano: Take Off (1978) - Progressive Electronic.
Antonio Sangiuliano, a composer from Tuscany, released his only album in 1978 on RCA. The atmospheres remind of some Tangerine Dream's works and the album is rather unusual for the italian progressive style. First side is taken by the 16 minutes long Time control, while the second side only has two tracks. Sangiuliano also recorded a second album, Out of breath, but this was never released at the time in Italy and its rights were sold to a japanese record company.

I have heard both albums, I prefer much more Sangiuliano's album Take Off (featuring some Wakeman sounds), it's also a must for Tronmaniacs, I have completely forgotten it to mention in my Mellotron special

Yes, it's a very good album indeed, do you think is possible to include Sangiuliano in the site???

Andrew - we really need to hear some mp3's or sound samples to judge if these bands are Prog - can you send any? will otherwise investigate of course |

Agree with you ANDREW, both albums are exellent works of the italian electronic prog scene, same as Compagnia Digitale and ANDREW do you know Trans Vita Express? What can you say about them? they have a really very nice and good album: Racconto Psicofonico
