Nino Nardini – Musique Pour Le Futur

Nino Nardini (great name isn’t it?) recorded “Musique Pour Le Futur” for the Crea Sound library imprint in 1970.

This record is not at all like this composer’s better known funky exotica outings. Instead of sleazing it up, Nino is bleeping away in the Forbidden Planet / egghead labcoat electronics idiom here. When he gets bored with constructing drippy moog stalactites, he pulls out the synth and starts whacking out some atmospheric ‘Hammer Horror on the moon’ dirges.

Thanks to Groove Merchant, San Francisco’s best record shoppe for this one.
