Expect more from Franco Falsini on Better Sound label this winter.
Over the past 40 years, the Italian underground legend has embraced progressive rock, disco, post-punk, acid house and even psychedelic trance, but is only now, in his 60s, enjoying a revival of sorts. DJ Shadow, it should be said, was the first to acknowledge him, sampling Falsini's pioneering 70s group Sensations' Fix – Florence's answer to Faust or Pink Floyd – on 2002's The Private Press. In 2008, Sonic Youth paid their own discreet tribute by subtitling an exhibition of their artwork and ephemera "Sensational Fix", while last year John Elliott – from US hip synth voyagers Emeralds – reissued Falsini's 1975 solo album Cold Nose, an enchanting drone piece originally composed for a short film warning of the dangers of cocaine use.
At the time, Falsini's Italian label Polydor was freaked out by his group of longhairs. "They thought we were a bunch of drug addicts to be kept at a distance "We were kept out of the studios with the excuse that 'the smoke was hurting the machines'." Falsini lightened a little in the early-80s, producing Electra's frisky aerobics anthem Feels Good (Carrots & Beets) – played by everyone from Horse Meat Disco to Aphex Twin – and knocking out a fantastic album of new wave pop in 1983 as the Antennas (check out Just Your Love). Throughout the next decade he produced hours of mind-expanding acid-trance for his Interactive Test label.

Simona Faraone as  PHARAOH  [biography]
Label Manager of “New Interplanetary Melodies - Phonographic Editions From Tomorrow's World”.  DJ & vinyl lover.

Hailing from Rome and Florence based, Simona Faraone is one of the first women to have undertaken the disc-jockey career in Italy and Europe. Refined digger of cutting-edge sounds, she started a long and respected militancy in the Italian underground scene in 1987, with a background deeply rooted in the Afro-American music and an eclectic, original style. 
As an activist in the Italian club culture, she's seen the birth and partaken in almost all the electronic music movements: from the seminal house and techno-rave, across the progressive detour, until the manifold forms of contemporary electronica.
In 2015 Simona joined Roots Underground Records as Executive Producer, in partnership with the label founder Marco Celeri, contributing to the launch of the vinyl catalogue. 
Her very own project of “Phonographic Editions From Tomorrow’s World” called New Interplanetary Melodies was born in 2016 paying tribute to the unique and visionary approach of Sun Ra. It’s an experimental, free, transversal, and contaminated imprint which aim at promoting the sound of brilliant unconventional music producers and musicians, to create a parallel dimension in the world of modern independent sounds.
