Created, performed and produced entirely by Sorgini between 1974 to 1976 from his studio in Rome, it features traditional African percussion disturbed by dark and experimental synths to create a mysterious concept-album.

Listen to ‘Africa Oscura’ below:

Four Flies Records have previously released rare library albums and soundtracks from some of Italy’s most storied composers including Alessandro Alessandroni and Piero Umiliani, as well as Sorgini’s album Zoo Folle which was recorded during the same session as Africa Oscura.
