We are pleased to present a crown jewel of the early 80s Italian Minimal Synth scene. 
The MONUMENTS came into being in January 1981 in Turin when Mauro Tavella (keyboards, programming) and Andrea Costa (keyboards, voice) pooled their artistic experiences. From the outset they produced exclusively synthesised music, following the natural evolution in electronic music from the early days with monophonic synthesisers to the latest virtual sounds generated with the aid of computers.

The MONUMENTS released in 1984 their only official record on Discordie, a mini LP called "Age" comprising six incredibly fantastic electro-pop tracks, here reissued by Mannequin Records with 2 bonus tracks, "Veiled Lady" and "The Seals", which are out-takes from the same period. All the tracks were recorded on a Tascam 8-tracks, with external synchronisation of the percussions, at the TKS Studio in Torino.

From 1987 onwards, they focused exclusively on music for theatre, radio and independent film, writing scores for the opening sequences of programmes for some of the most important Italian TV companies as well as soundtracks for documentaries.  

Anna Logue Records released "XXVII" CD in 2009, an anthology of their music that contains the best of their early work from the years 1981-84. 

Some critics thought of this mini LP as being the best electropop record ever coming out of Italy.  A masterpiece!

PAST & FUTURE was originally self-produced and self-distributed by the band on his own label Artefact, as a limited edition of 500 cassettes, released in June 1987. It was sold out in a few months.
In 1989, the band was signed under licence to New Rose for the LP "Sounds In the Attic" (on Lively art sublabel), after New Rose had distributed the self-produced EP "Private Life" in 1988. In 1990, New Rose re issued Past & Future on cassette, and another 500 copies were sold.

Out on vinyl for the very first time, these original recordings were produced by the band on a 4-track cassette deck in 86-87, except track A2, recorded on a 8-track tape recorder at 8PM Studio in Lyon (march 87).

Released on December 09, 2013 by Domestica Records.

LYRICS 
She says that I’m her honey,
But she only wants my money,
And my built-in swimming pool,
But I’m a real person too.

’Cause I ain’t no fool (ain’t no fool)
Oh, oh, oh
Playing her little games (her little games)
Oh, oh, oh

She wants the diamonds, the brand-new car,
Chasing a dream of some superstar,
But my love’s the only truth I knew,
And I ain’t no fool.

She’s got her eyes on diamonds,
And my shiny brand-new car,
But I love her so, yes I love her,
Even if she plays the part.

’Cause I ain’t no fool (ain’t no fool)
Oh, oh, oh
Playing her little games (her little games)
Oh, oh, oh

She wants the diamonds, the brand-new car,
Chasing a dream of some superstar,
But my love’s the only truth I knew,
And I ain’t no fool.

I see through the lies,
Through the sparkle in her eyes,
But still I keep holding on,
Though I know she’s wrong.

She wants the diamonds, the brand-new car,
Chasing a dream of some superstar,
But my love’s the only truth I knew,
And I ain’t no fool.

AIN'T NO FOOL
