This may be of interest to a few around here, Tatsuro Yamashita's catalog is finally being reissued on vinyl so no more absurd prices. Looks like they are starting in May and continuing through the summer. I may end up grabbing Spacey and Circus Town. Possibly Moonglow too.

Timothy Fife - Clear Off

I'm a big fan of Fife's work so really looking forward to this release. I know a bunch of around here will enjoy it

Haruomi Hosono - N.D.E.

This just went up for pre-order at a few places (LITA, Rough Trade, etc) seems like Dusty Groove has it for the cheapest state side. First time on vinyl

https://www.dustygroove.com/item/140409 ... Hosono:NDE

This is Hosono experimenting with 90's electronic music stylings, you get some house style tracks in here. Overall it's really good and recommended if you're a fan of his and electronic music.

New D.A.L.I. album just dropped from u-Super records (Burning Tapes new label)

https://usuper.bandcamp.com/album/the-medusa-sessions

D.A.L.I. is Deadly Avenger & Luke Insect

I was a big fan of their last release on BWR. I will likely grab this if it hits stateside for less than $40 but I just don't feel like spending $55 on a single LP so I'll be skipping direct from the label unfortunately.

I'm sure people who care about this already know but figured I'd still post it just in case

Prince - Diamonds & Pearls
Remastered and Reissued

https://store.prince.com/dept/diamonds- ... 229_103238

Similar to the Sign O the Times release there are multiple versions

12 LP + Bluray Boxset - $350
4LP - $80
2LP - $50/$40

I opted for the 4LP set as I want those two extra discs. I absolutely love this album and have been impatiently waiting for a reissue, OG copies are a bit out of my price range.

Ambient fans, this is a big deal

Christian Gaubert's "Last Exit" is being reissued by the Mad About Records label.
Some awesome funk, and the last reissue had gotten pretty pricey.

New release from Four Flies that was announced a few weeks back

Dressel Amorosi - Spectrum



https://fourfliesrecords.bandcamp.com/album/spectrum

US preorder - https://www.dustygroove.com/item/161852 ... der=artist

Limited edition LP Vinyl Black w/ tip-on jacket

The new album from Italian duo Dressel Amorosi, comprising Federico Amorosi and Valerio Lombardozzi, is a fervent homage to the realm of Italian soundtracks and library music from the late '70s and early '80s. Navigating effortlessly through a spectrum of scenarios and atmospheres, it conjures up vivid images of action-packed sequences, wistful retro vibes, chic party scenes, and hair-raising horror chills.

With a refined, contemporary flair, Spectrum celebrates early '80s cinema and its unmistakable aesthetics, steering clear of any trace of nostalgia. It weaves together elements of synth-pop, jazz-prog, electric fusion, and chill-funk across its seven compelling tracks, reimagining the past through a contemporary lens.

Compared to their previous, strictly horror-themed album, here Dressel Amorosi broaden their musical and cinematic palette, adding ingredients from the giallo, sexy thriller, comedy, and crime genres.

I just came across a pre-order for Mort Garsen's Zodiac Cosmic Sounds

Figured a bunch of you here may be interested in it

https://www.dustygroove.com/item/165473 ... lease_date

Just an fyi - original copies of Zodiac are wildly plentiful/generally very cheap

yeah i didn't realize that was a $36 pressing until after I posted that lol. I just assumed it was similar to the Sacred Bone pressings which were all $20
