Luca Miti – Possible Plays

Luca Miti (born 1957) is an Italian composer and pianist. He studied jazz piano, extended vocal techniques and baroque flute a bec. From 1980 he’s working as a composer and performer of contemporary music. His work is centred on a deep research on, over and beyond “sound”. He collaborated extensively with such artists as Albert Mayr, Francesco Michi, Alvin Curran, Mauro Orselli, Michiko Hirayama and others. His repertoire consists of “difficult-to-find” compositions (Riley’s Keyboard Studies, Takehisha Kosugi’s works, Alvin Curran’s lesser known compositions). He is a dedicatee of works by Tom Johnson, Pauline Oliveros and others. Excellent avantgarde, modern classical, field recording cassette. Possible Plays was released as a cassette by Multiple Configuration (885 ITA 4) in 1985.

Throbbing Gristle – Mission Is Terminated / Various – Nice Tracks

Excellent double album featuring two releases from Nice Label, Throbbing Gristle – Mission Is Terminated (003 EX 39LY 2) and Various – Nice Tracks (004 EX 39LY 2) both released in 1983, as part of the Red Ronnie’s Bazaar magazine. Red Ronnie’s Bazaar was a magazine edited by Red Ronnie aka Gabriele Ansaloni who was born in San Pietro in Casale, Italy, 15/12/1951, started his career in 1975 as a radio dj and now seems to be a famous television presenter. Could not find an English bio, hence the limited information. TG – Mission Is Terminated was recorded live in Sheffield in 1981. Various – Nice Tracks is a compilation album with a collage of Italian artist and samples from movies and interviews by Red Ronnie. This is very nicely done and gives the album a whole new listening experience as the styles from the band range from minimal synth, post punk, pop, experimental to avantgarde and piano music. And last but not least a big THANKS to Mr Curious Guy from Phoenix Hairpins for letting me take the scans of the booklet, as it is in album format. Thanks.
