PANORAM | OP002 A DOOM WITH A VIEW | COVER DESIGN
From OriginPeoples:
Sometimes you can tell from the first listen of a recording that its creator has a totalizing vision that transcends time and genre. You will experience this rare sensation when you listen to Panoram's "A Doom With A View." The Italian producer has tapped into a vein of surrealist sonic collage that's at once allusive and elusive. The album parades baffling micro-movements past your ears like a secret history of misunderstood musical remnants heard on damaged media formats 50 years after a catastrophic disaster. It exposes continuity and logic as specious myths; jettisoning these vestigial elements in order to make space for a higher form of aural alchemy.
The album's two long tracks come off as a scrambled signal from the final crackles of the information age; at times you feel as if this music's been filtered through an advanced race's sensorium before it penetrates your lowly mortal ears. Its transitions seem at once logical and absurd. Just when you think you have a grip on its progress, Panoram makes a mockery of your assumptions. He bathes guitars and keyboards in a space-age sheen and swathes them in freaky interstellar frequencies and disturbing turbulence. Despite the Andromeda Strain-like chaos, something sensual and dramatic's thrumming under the surface. This is the soundtrack to a golden age that's rusting around the edges. Its degradation holds you rapt, its Elysian inferno beckons you to hum along to its eroding siren song. In a perfect world, "A Doom With A View"would be the last thing you hear in this life.
TRACKLIST:
Side A - Untitled (29:07)
Side B - Untitled (34:06)

PANORAM | Background Story cover design + WANDERING EYE logotype.
FROM JUNO PLUS:
The artist will release a new album through his own Wandering Eye label in March. The potential of self-styled ‘synth crooner’ Panoram was first documented on the 2012 Accents record for the Scenario label, though many people will know him for last year’s excellent Everyone Is A Door album. Finally issued by Edinburgh’s Firecracker Recordings in March, the album may have been short at around 30 minutes, but it packed in a multiplicity of ideas and sounds suggesting Panoram was a very individual artist. Matt Anniss summed it up nicely in his review, stating Panoram excelled at “painting pictures with sound, delivering mood pieces that are in turns dreamy, inspired, unusual, eccentric and otherworldly”. A new year brings news of a new Panoram album, Background Story, due in March on a new label, Wandering Eye, set up by the artist. The 10-track set is apparently a meditation on the nature of memories and reality, and despite his generally retiring nature, a press release quotes Panoram describing Background Story as an “unpredictable journey in which we face a complex puzzle made by our own manipulations. Mood swings can make our minds questioning what we thought it was “real”. We can get easily lost among the infinite levels of reality.”

EDIZIONI MONDO | MONDO PAZZO - Podcast 1 Cover design
FROM TESTPRESSING.ORG
When the first Mondo release arrived last year we were like ‘ah breath of fresh air’. It was everything in one record that we wanted. Super balearic with a slow dance floor beat on the other side. Three tracks of quality music that paid tribute to the composers and session musicians who provided themes and incidental music for `60s cinema and TV.
The second in the series going by the name of Rotla appeared and it was just as good. At that point we asked Gerd Running Back (who releases the Mondo records) to put us in touch to get a mix. Francesco Mondo got in touch and sent, as he says, ‘a kind of show, an “audio documentary” mondo movie style’. It’s fun. Enjoy it.
