ULTIMA THULE / AUDION MAGAZINE

A
unique voice, exploring adventurous music that others ignore! Audion Magazine
(established in 1986) has a reputation for its different
stance on modern music, ever willing to embrace the unusual, and seek-out those
that have helped shape the face of new-music, from
rock/folk/jazz through to the avant-garde. Audion doesn't adhere to trends or
fashion, it exists purely for the love of the music.
So, if you're into anything musically progressive or unusual, you are sure to
find Audion essential reading! And, of course, if you're into
Krautrock, genuine progressive, and the music the mainstream and general
alternative press ignore - this is the place!

The definitive Italian music encyclopedia! 500
copy edition Our long awaited extensive survey of the amazing Italian
"Spaghetti-Rock" scene. Although centred on the progressive rock
scene of the 1970s, we have attempted to cover all related genres here,
amounting to more than just another prog rock guide. Indeed, we believe that
"A Fistful Of Spaghetti" is the first English encyclopedia of
Italian rock and new-music to fully examine this too-often overlooked but
amazingly prolific and innovative scene in all its facets, tracing its roots
from the avant-garde and pop music, via the new freedom of the post
psychedelic era that gave birth to it. A4 276 pages total. internal pages: 240 numbered black
& white, two 16 page inserts: colour covers & black & white
photos. History and background, The Italian prog scene - 328 artists. The
second wave. New Wave & Industrial. Synthesizer & Ambient.
Soundtracks & Library Music. etc. new! book available: information page buy via: Bandcamp,
