Here comes a true South American Latin Jazzfunk treasure from Argentina!!! Sound Essence is more than proud to present these lost recordings from 1974 to music lovers again in all their glory.

Carlos Franzetti, who has once again been in the spotlight in recent years thanks to the re-release of his strong late 70s JazzFusion record "Graffiti", was also in charge of this record called Dedos. The story behind:

In 1974, after Carlos Franzetti was living in Mexico and worked as the musical director of Fermata International, he returned to Argentina. In Buenos Aires his friend Mochin Marafiotti was recently appointed A&R at the local recording label Music Hall . Marafiotti asked Carlos if he wanted to record some of his music and he answered that he had in mind a group playing Latin Jazz . After a couple of meetings they came out with the idea of covering the Ruben Rada tune Dedos recently recorded in the US by Airto Moreira along with the OPA Trio. Carlos contributed his own composition „Doce y Diez“ . He selected the group consisting of his friend and member of the uruguayan Band Totem, Ruben Rada on percussion, Ricardo Lew on guitar , Emilio Valle on bass and Osvaldo Lopez on drums covering keyboards and vocals himself . This formation recorded tracks and vocals in a three hour session and the next day the track was mixed. Music Hall released „Dedos“ and „Doce y Diez“ on a single record and after months of discrete airplay and not so good sales the project for an album was draped . A few months after that Carlos moved back to the US where he is been living since December of 1974 to the present...

„It is a rewarding experience to see a re-release of this two songs a half century after the original release. It was hot and it looks and sounds even hotter now. I love it!" (Carlos Franzetti, New Jersey, December 2024).

Here comes a very special production from East Germany of the early 70s!
One of the TOP Soul-Jazz & Beat combos in the country led by bassist and singer HORST KRÜGER,
recorded two previously unreleased, outrageously good titles here in the newly formed septet format.
"Ich will die Zeit nicht bereuen" is probably by far one of the most crispy produced German-language soul beat numbers that existed in the GDR at that time! From the pen of Ralf Petersen, the then head of Berliner Rundfunk personally, no pure high-class hit was recorded here, but hard-hitting, rocking beat.
It was not without reason that the choice of the head of broadcasting fell on the recently formed Horst Krüger Septet, which also gave the contemporary jazzy sound a perfect touch through an intensified brass section from 1970 on.
The title "Sonderbar" is exactly what its title promises, peculiar and extraordinary. A feat that was created as such in 1972. This somewhat sweeter SoulJazz vocal piece had a concrete idea, which composers Dieter Kopf, Horst Krüger and Franz Bartzsch as a musical arranger as well as Jens Gerlach in the musical free spirit of the hippiesque era. A through the stylistic device of Repetito in the text
dominant repetition, which is complicated in the context of the ever-evolving theme about feelings and love Groove of bass, guitar, drums and organ theme is reflected, redefined and constantly found again, simply masterfully. An interlude with a flute solo and a groovy dreamy Hammond organ solo at the end of the title, envelops the verses very contemporary.
Horst Krüger on bass guitar and his wife Gerti Möller with her outstandingly distinctive and powerful voice on the microphone.
A must for every fan of early beat, rock and soul!

It is an honour for Sound Essence to have this New Zealand outstanding artist and synth-prodigy on board.
Everything that the heart of the music connoisseur desires comes together here in that 6 track album ...
neo-fusion jazz combined with 80s synthesizer sounds embedded in rhythm machine grooves with a touch of
deep purple new wave and profound "elevator music". When these demos came in some time ago, it was a must to reveal it to the world!

LUCOLA is the brainchild of a globetrotting composer and multi-instrumentalist with roots in Wellington and
musical branches that have stretched across the globe. LUCOLA's EP, Waikanae, recorded at Unisex Studios in
Los Angeles with producer Phillip Haut (Don Bolles, Ariel Pink),
reflects his journey through diverse musical landscapes.
This EP on Sound Essence encapsulates the vibrant energy and experimental spirit that define LUCOLA's music.
