Piero Umiliani and I Suoi Oscillatori - Il Mondo Dei Romani
Originally recorded for a TV documentary about ancient Rome and released on Omnicron (Umiliani’s label), Il Mondo Dei Romani finds Piero Umiliani experimenting with electronic instruments (his "oscillators") to offer a fascinating rendition of what synthesizer-based avant-garde ancient Roman music would sound like - a weird and extremely hypnotizing retro-futuristic experience where faux cithara, lyre, organ, and trumpet sounds are driven by proto-techno sequences and minimalist rhythms. Record is very clean but has large surface marks on 2 tracks of side A doesn't affect the playing. Sleeve is strong EX close to NM with removable MP 2000 Sticker.
