https://pqr-disquesplusquerel.bandcamp.com/album/a-traves-de-la-ventana


Band name: Aditus

Album title:  A Traves de la Ventana

Format: Vinyl LP (180 gr., with Bonus CD + 12-page booklet)

Other specifications: Strictly limited pressing of 300 numbered copies

Cat. no: PQR-015

Previously self-released in 1977, the debut album by Aditus is a case of non-stop high-energy crossover, the progeny of 4 outstanding musicians who were versed in equal measure in prog-rock and jazz fusion. In the same manner that Vytas Brenner popularized local folk music by transmuting it through electronics, prog and jazz, Aditus bring high-energy jazz-fusion overladen with prog keyboards, with a fair share of latin percussion and juicy rhythm sections. Most notably, it features a space-age anthem (El Conde De Casanare) that simply adds a mouthwatering grain to a versatile wall of sound. The album has been remastered from the original tapes and includes a bonus cd with a rare soundboard recording from one of the most spectacular live shows performed by Aditus in 1977, plus 2 previously unreleased studio tracks from the same period and a 12-page booklet packed with the original band-members’ memoirs, rare photos and paraphernalia.

Quintet, Kimio Mizutani, Terry Brooks & Strange, Necronomicon, The Spoils of War, Electric Orange After Mirthrandir, Lift and Easter Island, we continue bringing you the cream of the crop from U.S. Prog Classics, with the reissue of ID’s 1977 album Where Are We Going. In this case, you can guess the music from the band’s name, a regression into the depths of the unconscious (Freud’s antecedent term for ID in the structure of the cunning invention called ‘psyche’) via an interminable sonic evocation. The highlights of the album are the 2 long parts of the homonymous track covering most of the 2 sides. Although the prog progression at the beginning of Where Are We G...

RIALZU biography

  RIALZU biography by Gilles Renne (Rialzu) and Alain Lebon (Soleil Zeuhl)   It was during the rebirth of the Corsican Independence movement that the only record of RIALZU appeared. RIALZU, a band whose musical adventure plunges me back into the far-away and almost ghostly universe of my youth.   RIALZU was created in the early 1970’s at the peak of an incredible musical effervescence : many bands, soon to become legends, were breaking musical taboos and adventuring onto virgin territories by mixing musical styles with incredible creativity and thus laying the new foundations of music yet to be. It was in this atmosphere that, as a teenager, I began teaching myself to play the guitar by trying to decipher the magical notes of my ‘guitar heroes’ from their albums. I met Christophe Mac Daniel, a young organist from Corsica, at a Jesuit boarding school in Avignon. Together we took our first musical steps by starting up a band (of ever-changing names) with two other...

Although they performed regularly in staple venues and events such Ashton Court Festival (1978), the Rock Garden, the ICA in London, Glastonbury and Stonehenge between 1974-1979, they only recorded a one-off gem in 1977, The World At Mind’s End. A testament to its members’ musical virtuosity, including Steve Robshaw’s outstanding guitar-playing skills, flutework and violin, Paul Todd on soprano saxophone and Howard Scarr’s expertise wit...
