SLEEPERS

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.
