Franco Falsini
is an Italian musician and producer perhaps best known for his work with
his space/prog rock group Sensations' Fix, who released seminal albums
in the 1970's. His music was primarily crafted with impressive guitar
technique (proven to be way ahead of his time), various synthesizers,
and unorthodox recording methods to churn out beautiful experimental
psychedelic sound. 'Cold Nose' was his debut solo outing, originally
released on Polydor in 1975 as a soundtrack to a film that has never
been widely released and only seen by very few people. Falsini applied
many experimental methods to his recording process, including a
mechanism borrowed from the Bio-Electronic Meditation Society, which
would monitor his brain activity in the studio. Only when his brain
would produce Alpha/Theta waves would he begin to write and commit his
music to tape. Composed in three suites of spiraling and kaleidoscopic
proto-ambient, psychedelic rock, Falsini had created a masterpiece that
today stands as one of the all-time treasures of the Italian Progressive
music scene of the 1970's. Throughout the recording we are treated to
gentle washes of EMS and Minimoog synthesizers laced with floating
guitar line melodies that break out into sky-high guitar leads. 'Cold
Nose' is a rare and gorgeous organic creation, glowing with colorful
pulses and morphing algorithms. Spectrum Spools is pleased to present
the first pressing of the album in over 30 years, remastered by Falsini
to his specifications from the original tapes and cut to vinyl at
Dubplates and Mastering, Berlin. Line-up / Musicians Franco Falsini/guitars,keyboards Discography Cold Nose 1975
