1983 boogie rarity, standing somewhere between the sounds of early 80s disco club land, electro-funk + synth-pop. First time on 12"! 4 versions mixed by Sean P!

Rare 1978 album from one of the pioneers of Italian electronic music, and new age visionary Il Guardiano Del Faro aka Federico Monti Arduini. Holds the sublime mellow Balearic cut 'Lady Moon'.Viewed as a precursor of New Age sound art, Arduini was one of the first producers in Italy to use the Moog synthesiser, he was also an early adopter of the tradition among electronic producers to use a moniker to disguise his identity. Il Guardiano Del Faro (translated as “the guardian of lighthouse”) is a nod to the small Italian fishing town Porto Santo Stefano, where Arduini created his studio in the mid-70s.He produced a number of albums from this seaside idyl ofelectronic instruments and tape recorders, but Oasis stands out from the pack. Released in 1978, it became a cult classic for its experimental sounds and emotional expressions. Spiritual synth sounds cover the album in a dreamy haze, oscillating between ambient and psychedelic. Sparing deployment of the Roland rhythm box gives dance floor favourites ‘Disco Divina’ and ‘Oasis’ touches of space disco.
